Back in 2006, both Wii and DS each offered more than enough games to satisfy on their own. The Switch, which has the dev capacity of both, but after years of prep has only a handful of games to show, and no killer app (Zelda doesn't count since it is on Wii U as well). 

You are misremembering things. The Wii launched with twilight princess as its sole high profile game. Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, Super Paper Mario, and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn are what held the Wii together in 2007. 

 

The lineup for the Switch looks much better. 

And initially, before the DS became the best selling thing of the previous generation, it got off to a slow start around the time it launched in 2004-05. Plus the launch (or day 1) lineup of the DS wasn't the most stellar (like most launches). By '06, the Lite happened and there were a better lineup but that was 2-3 years in.
