BotW?

BotW isn't a port, it's a multiplat. Games released at the same time aren't ports. "Porting" implies non-simultaneous development.

Mario Kart 8, BOtW, even Splatoon 2 might as well be considered ports, and Pokken Tournament is coming out ...

I was one of those guys defending Splatoon 2 as a sequel and while I still think it is technically one, the fact that there's even a debate shows the problem in the Switch lineup. I mean I love the damn thing. But that's because I discarded my Wii U long ago. Mario + Rabbids, Arms, Xenoblade 2, Super Mario Odyssey, and Fire Emblem Warriors are all the big unique games. And that's a lot sure, but not enough to carry a whole year. I guess the way I feel about the Switch is, it "feels" a lot more like portstation than it actually is(that isn't a knock at Playstation btw). 

So I can see and sympathize with where Chrizum is coming from, even if he's technically wrong. I really don't have a problem with ports unless they're marketed as a reason to buy a console, or to fill in some bad lineup.
