Do you expect different Switch SKUs?

I sincerely doubt it. Nintendo have marched to the beat of their own drum for a long time now. They refused to un-bundle the gamepad from the Wii U despite the fact that they could have dropped the price of the console significantly. They didn't put out 'slim' and revised versions(more cost effective) of the N64, Gamecube and Wii U(the Wii got a revision after it was irrelevant). Hell the Wii U didn't even have an ethernet port and the Wii didn't output in HD despite have the internal capability to. I really don't see them splintering their userbase/console like that.

I don't see how releasing new SKU's with the same hardware but different peripherals is "splintering the userbase". If they sell more units by releasing a cheaper handheld only version they will do it.

There are like a gazillion different 3DS SKUs. Didn't seem to hurt them.

Some people are throwing around the notion of a more powerful SKU, I was referring specifically to that really. We could see a dock-less Switch which would essentially be an exclusive handheld but I think the main seller would be the full unit.
