Depends on the age of the kids.

If they're male teenagers, playing with the Switch while in the bathroom isn't the worst thing they could be doing .

I like that Nintendo is not targeting that demographic. It's targeting 20/30 years old people, who were probably former Ninty gamers. At least that's what I get about their latest adverts.

That's good. From the moves they're making so far, it looks like Nintendo has two target audiences in mind with the Switch; kids and 18-35 adults.  I think (more like 'hope') Nintendo realized that trying too hard to court the kid audience (especially with condesending ads that make Nintendo products look like baby toys) does more harm than good.  For the adults specifically, I like how they're marketing it as a gaming device that can give a console-like experience that conforms to their schedules and lifestyles instead of the current method where most adult gamers have to compromise and specifically set aside time to enjoy their hobby.
