You forgot:

Pro's:

Has a ethernet port. (on the switch you need to spend 30$+ for a adapter to be able to use cable)

Yeah doesnt even matter lol. I cant understand why people are defending nintendo if its thats obvious they are making the same mistakes they made with the wii and the wii u. Im sure software support on the switch will again be dead way before ps4/xbox one software support (like wii u software support was quicker dead then ps3/xbox 360).

Also the first year is extremly lacklusting, but it has Zelda (sheduled to release in 2015, first teased 2011) and Mario (4 years in development).

What do people expect then? It will be the wii u situation all over again with biig gaps between games. They arnt even able to fill its launch year with enough titles and they even didnnt gave the wii u much in the past 2 years.

Their big guns are fired in 2017 and new zelda and mario will likely take again 4-6 years to make. Maybe a 1 AAA title per year (like Smash, Mario Kart, Metroid, Pokemon) but that will be it. While Playstation and xbox gets 5-10 AAA games jsut in the holiday season and ~5-10 in the rest of the year...

Nintendos development teams are just way to small to make enough games in HD quality.  Nobody can support a console only by themselfs now a days.

Wasn't the main joke for 2 years about the PS4 that it had no games? Or that this was the remastered generation, with ports from older consoles? The main goal of having a hybrid console is that Nintendo will only be needing to focus on ONE machine, not two - therefore, there will be a lot more games for the Switch than there were on the Wii U. The Switch also has the benefit of probably being the best selling console in Japan pretty soon, which means Japanese devs will flock to the system, which in turn will make the Switch the official sweet heart of everyone that loves Japanese gaming around the world.

As far as Nintendo games go, this will be a stellar year; Zelda, Splatoon 2, Mario Kart 8 (old port), Xenoblade 2 and Mario. That's 4 entirely new titles for the system, and one port of a well recieved game which sold fairly well on a none-selling console. What we can expect down the road; 2D Mario, Mario 3D World 2, Pokémon Stars (it'll sell gang busters!), Pikmin, Smash, a new Mario Kart, Metroid, whatever Retro's working on, a new Donkey Kong, Luigi's Mansion, more Mario games, Fire Emblem, Yoshi games, Kirby, HOPEFULLY a GOOD Starfox (not likely though) and Animal Crossing. So there's a BUNCH of games coming for the system, something like 4 "heavy hitters" per year for 4 years to come - excluding THIS year. I can play most of PS4's games on my PC, can't do that with Nintendo games.
