Well, the point was that the 3DS launched with three "casual" games and had only two N64 remakes after that from Nintendo for its first six months, whereas the Switch is launching with a brand new Zelda game and has three more "core" games planned for its first six months, one of which is a slightly updated Wii U game, and only one "casual" game announced for that period.
I don't even know how to compare this period to the Wii U's launch, because the Wii U had only Lego City and Game & Wario from December until August. It gets even better when you consider the Switch's fourth quarter lineup of Mario Odyssey, Fire Emblem Warriors, and Xenoblade 2 (compared to 3D Land & Kart 7 on 3DS / Pikmin 3, Wonderful 101, 3D World on Wii U, which is even a little unfair as that's a full year for Wii U and only 9 months for 3DS and Switch). Of course they have to actually release those games this year. Nintendo. Do you hear me Nintendo. Don't play with my heart with Xenoblade I swear to
ANYWAY assuming they actually release these games on-time and have a couple of surprises left for this year, that's actually a great first-party lineup from where I'm sitting. Again, I really think it just comes down to whether or not the Switch is a desirable product. I can't answer that.
