DOOM, Wolfenstein II, Dragonball Xenoverse 2, NBA2k18, WWE2k18, Dagonquest (whatever the newest one is), etc are all current gen games that are either here or coming, and there are more to come.  Plus 1st party exclusives are current gen as well.

Try harder

If you downgrade DOOM, Wolfenstein, Dragonball Z and other games hard enough, even the N64 will be able to run it. That doesn't make the performance current gen. First of all, going from 60fps to 30fps is a MASSIVE downgrade. And then they also have to lower texture detail, lighting, rendering and much more. This amount of adjusting takes months because they have to re-evaluate the whole game. And then besides all the downgrades, also content is missing. 

Switch is running last gen games, not current gen. And that for 320 euros excluding a game is way too much. 

Content, you mean level editor that nobody knows that Doom have it at all!? Nobody really cares about Doom level editor.

Doom is current gen game, not last gen, same like NBA 2K18, Rocket League, Wolfenstein 2...

And yet, it sells like crazy. 

It's crazy right? The Switch offers absolutely nothing more (way less actually) than Wii U did at launch and its features and content atm is severy lacking. Yet Wii U numbers were abysmal. I think the console/handheld hybrid hype is making people blind when it comes to price/content ratio. 

Is this serious post!? I really hope its not. :)

Switch has killer 1st year lineup, has two most critically acclaimed games this generation in 1st 8 months of console on market, and also has games like MK8D and Splatoon 2 that are also very strong and system seller games, Wii U didnt had nothing even similar. Besides great and strong games, Switch has great concept and appealing, console that can be played anywhere and anytime, real home console and handheld in one, and actualy offers two controllers out of box for local multiplayer.
