This basically confirms that the Switch will only be capable of playing IOS/Android quality games. No way you can run PS4 games on such a slow ARM CPU. It also confirms that the CPU-part of the system is slower than the Wii-U although the GPU-part may be faster.

But the slow CPU will be a bottleneck thart prevents console games from being ported (It is technically impossible to port CPU-heavy games without completely rewriting the engine). But we will se a lot of Iphone / Android games coming to the sysrem. The technical architecture could also allow Nintendo to release all 1st party Switch games on Android / IOS in order to make investors happy. You could then use the Switch controller as a bluetooth remote control. My bet is that this is the unannounced secret feature of the switch and that Skyrim and Zelda will release on Android / IOS too.
