Fact that some multiplatform games were performed below PS3/360 is not prove that Wii U hardware is weaker, simple because devs learned to use most of PS3/360 hardware in 2012, while devs in 2012. were just started working on Wii U hardware and they stilld didnt learn to proparly use it not to mentione to use most of them. Just compare PS3/360 multi platform games from their first year 2005/2006 with multi platform games from 2012/2013, or Wii U multiplatform game from 2012. with  those PS3/Xbox360 games from 2005/2006. and you will get picture, we talking about night and day difference here (for isnstance CoD 3 from 2006. and CoD Black Ops 2 from 2012). And fact is that Wii U is more capable than PS3/Xbox360, Wii U has less capable CPU, but has more modern and capable GPU and 2-4x more RAM, so used in right way, Wii U hardware could achive more. Evrething we saw until now tells us how much more capibile Switch is compared to PS3/360/WiiU (again, Switch currently hardly has any game that runs at 720p (they are 900p-1080p in most cases), while only few were above 720p on PS3/Xbox360 and we actualy had plenty of sub HD games, that fact also tells you what is difference in power, and devs yet need to start taking out most of Switch hardware). Rayman Legends is heavily compressed on Switch and that's actually only game that has some miniuses compared to PS3/360/WiiU versions of games.

Nintendo definitely has some VR/AR plans with Switch, what exactly it remains to see, they definitely have lotsa a interesting ideas and patents.

Not some, almost all and the learning curve for wii u with a simple 3 core CPU arrangement without multi-threading and well documented radeon gpu is not going to be hard. It's a mute point anyway the wii u is done and so we can see exactly how it performed for its whole life cycle and that is it performed very badly.

Not all, NFS, Rayman Legends, Trine 2, Bayonetta, Deus EX...actualy mostly Switch launch multiplatform game are worse compared to PS3/Xbox360,  but that again doesn't proves nothing, you know CPU is just one part of hardware not all, Wii U had 3 core, but also eDram that used in right way can be very helpful and of corse almost any 3rd party devs didn't use potential of eDram. Actual documentation about Wii U hardware was very bad and thats one of things that devs were complaining when they start working on Wii U games, and documentation does not change anything, fact is that you cant use most of hardware in 1st year or with first game. Again just compare PS3/Xbox360 multiplatform games from 2006. with Wii U games from 2012, we talking about night and day difrence, and Wii U actualy didnt had bigger 3rd party games after 2013. one of last games we had is Deus Ex that better on Wii U compared to PS3/Xbox360. PS3/Xbox 360 (espacily PS3) performed very badly, espacile in first few years until devs did learned to use much better hardware and after couple of games start using much better hardware they had, thats why you have night and day difrence if you compare 2006. and 2012. multiplatform games, Wii U didnt had that, Wii U left out multiplatform games in 1st year.
