This is purely a 3rd party me-too box.

That would be a stretch, as it's not "3rd party" but made by the same party designing the guts of Switch.
NVIDIA got into making their own console box exactly because they believed in their chips that weren't seeing large success.
Nintendo has now licenced Tegra just as NVIDIA is introducing the next gen, so if anything Switch is the "me-too" here.
Hell, Nintendo is even using NVIDIA's API for the software stack.  

Except it is a machine that will only play 3rd party games. Games that are better on PS4/XBO for close enough price. A machine that has no uniqueness at all.
