I did factor the price drop in earlier in the OP saying it is needed if it sales less than 4 million in 7 months. But if there is no price drop, I have a suspicion Nintendo will have a standalone Switch tablet for a cheaper price out soon.

The Switch doesnt really stand on it own though when the consumer can either buy a $300 new Switch or $270 PS4 slim with a pack in game. Nintendo needs to prove its new console can perform well even in launch againtst it competitors in their middle of their lifetime because the competitors can afford price cuts more quickly than the new Switch and their libraries will expand even further. This is the problem of releasing a new console in the middle of their competitors' life span and Nintendo is aware of this.

So you still think that bolded font makes your points better. It doesn't work like that.

You can't take a PS4 and play it anywhere you want, so the Switch definitely offers things of value that neither Sony or Microsoft can match.

That's a two way street since Sony and Microsoft get a huge ammount of high profile third party games the Switch simply will not get. Which as far as I am concerned are quite valuable for building a library. At this moment Sony offers a system with a good library, decent specs and a great future perspective for a sharp price. You might not be able to take the PS4 everywhere you want, but it makes up for it in other areas. Like it or not but the Switch has to compete with the rise of tablet and mobile gaming on one side (the handheld side) and the PS4 and Xone on the other side. That's some tough competition especially considering Sony is line-up for the PS4 in 2017 and 2018.
