Its part of the reason nintendo doesnt get much 3rd party support so yes.
The typical reason is most buy a nintendo console as a 2nd console, only to play nintendo 1st party.
They buy multiplats on the other systems (they run better, higher resolution, maybe cheaper too ect).
3rd party notice they dont sell much on nintendo systems and go "why did we spent time&effort&money porting this thing?"
So yes, its a problem.
Sadly when your hardware is considerably weaker than competitors, you cant expect to get the same versions (fps,resolution ect).
So the circle will continue. People will buy 3rd party on Playstation 4 or Xbox One instead, and again just the 1st party nitnendo games on the switch.
which will lead to nintendo getting much less 3rd party for the switch.
The exception is if nintendo sells a bazillion million units of hardware.
However nintendo choose to be greedy with launch prices... so its not going to just magically sell insanely well out the gate, which will delay when 3rd party will want to jump in ect.
