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

Without 3rd parties support, any console will be as good as dead. Nintendo has large 1st party games, but it is not enough to save a console, if it is enough, WiiU wouldnt die at all.
Only exception will be like Wii whose motion console idea really worked out well, in this case, even 3rd parties dont like the hardware, they will port games to it.

For switch, I dont think a home/handheld hybrid console will work as well as Wii, so it needs 3rd parties.

Third party support depends on two things: units sold and ease of portability. If Nintendo comes out of the gate with a unified line-up, strong (enough) sales will be there from the Nintendo faithful. Word of mouth seems to be that porting will be easier on developers this time, with supported tools like UE4. 

With a stronger first-party line-up, Nintendo won't need Xbox 360 level third-party support -  just 3DS level support. Western developers will probably stick to basic ports of their less demanding games, and that's okay.
