Exactly why they need to stop and back non-niche games... If they took all the money they are going to spend backing niche games and poured it onto getting a a port of RDR2 on to the Switch, not only would that get the headlines with the public press, but most likely would also sell a shit ton more systems than all those niche games put together.

It's possible they might not have the ability to do so: Nintendo has a lot more connections with Ubisoft than Red Dead's dev, and it may have been offered to Nintendo and refusal could have cost them third party support on the Switch launch they do not want to risk. 

Could be but what we do know that this isn't Nintendo's first rodeo into situations like this. What they need to realize is what sells and what doesn't because their decisions affect the hardware sales of their own platform. Ubisoft didn't exactly treat Nintendo that well during the wiiU days. Lets not forget they are the ones who delayed rayman legends which was supposedly done for the wiiU just so it can get released on other platforms at the sametime. So all I am saying is, they need to think about what is best for their platform first before thinking about others. If they are spending money on these niche games that aren't pushing systems or selling much software, I would say it's mainly a wasted investment.
