And here we are seeing the effect of Switch being a combination portable/home console. Games like Disgaea 5, Puyo Puyo, Monster Hunter XX and DragonQuest Builders 2 wouldn't have been made for a strictly home console. Square has jumped on board the Switch train. Now we just need Atlus to decide that Switch is their new console of choice. We'll be drowning in JRPG goodness.

But those games exist on a console only device. And MH is getting a console only version so it would have been that version the switch got..

 

Being handheld isnt that important. The system is strong enough to port to and with a traditional controk scheme so those benefits are there to help e porting decisions along. The fact that switch is doing well enough sales wise means supporting it is an obvious decision to make. 

It's basically getting the Vita treatment. Few exclusive 3rd party games, but lots of ports of games that exist on regular consoles. That's not bad for the first six months of a system's life cycle. IMO the Vita's problem was that it got nothing but ports. With Nintendo that isn't going to be an issue since they will actively support the Switch unlike what Sony did to the Vita.
