People werent interested in getting a wii u for those games so I doubt they will be interested to get a switch for the first games. nintendo really should do something new and dont repeat failures.

 

My iPhone is as powerfull and can play similar games

People werent interested in getting a Wii U for many reasons, such as bad marketing/advertising, high price & constant software droughts. It wasnt that the games werent appealing, it was that the appealing games were too far and few in between.

3D Mario released a full year after launch, Mario Kart 1.5 years after launch, Smash Bros 2 years after launch, Splatoon 2.5 years after launch, Zelda still hasnt released, no mainline Pokemon titles, no mainline Animal Crossing, etc.

Having 3D Mario, Smash Bros, Splatoon, Pokemon, Zelda, Mario Kart all in its first year means the chances of early success are high.

And no you will not be able to play similar games on your iPhone, thats just a flat out dumb statement.

lol it will. An iPhone 7 (A10Fusion) is WAY stronger then the tegra x1 (pixel c) and most likely also more powerfull then the x2.  All three are mobile arm chips so its very compareable. Nvidia was never a market leader in arm chips, apple, snapdragon and samsung are.

The iPhone 7 has 730 Gflops: http://forsythanalytics.tumblr.com/iphone7-gpu

The Shield Portable (tegra k ship) had 96: http://kyokojap.myweb.hinet.net/gpu_gflops/

Tegra x1 console (always plugged in) had 350 Gflops: http://www.pcgameshardware.de/Nvidia-Tegra-Hardware-255923/News/Nvidia-Tegra-X1-Maxwell-SoC-20-nm-1147051/
