Why people shouldn't worry so much about the Switch's third party support

This.

If it wants to be successful it needs to capture an audience that's not already buying everything Nintendo. Having a console that runs every 3rd party game would be a start, but we can cross that off our list already.

Having a home console Pokémon could do that. The hardware boost between the 3DS and the Switch is probably the biggest leap since handheld gaming started. Don't underestimate this. A lot of people, including non-Nintendo fans, are waiting for a home console experience Pokémon game... And before you say the Switch isn't powerful enough to give us that feel: I'll just direct you to Breath of the Wild.

Why would it not be powerful enough to run Pokemon? That shit runs on a toaster. But I predict that the Pokemon on Switch will not be what people wanted. It will basically the same as the 3DS games just blown up on a bigger screen.
