Which is why I think Nintendo has a plan for that going into 2018. They know the young adult male audience is satisfied. Their next priority should be to transition the kids still on the 3DS to the Switch, and try to get women and older people interested in the Switch as well.  Nintendo's never happy with pleasing just an isolated niche, they want everyone enjoying their products. Again, I think OP is being a bit delusional thinking that Nintendo's not going to do anything to expand the Switch's appeal. The console already has that appeal from it's concept alone, Nintendo simply needs to reinforce it. 

We'll see but it's not looking good so far that the Switch's target audience is drowning in aged sausage ... 

Concept alone hasn't done much to increase the appeal for Switch these past months, I think it's going to be content that will increase the appeal of the Switch ... 

Games such as Animal Crossing have a wide female following and Pokemon still at least has a notable younger audience but those are just band-aids for a bigger problem where the legs for Nintendo's recognizable franchises on the Switch probably won't be as good as either the Wii or DS iterations since Zelda is at already 15th place, MK8D is at 16th place and Splatoon 2 is not charting anymore in the top 20 for NPD ... 

Keep in mind, we're still early in the Switch's life. In fact, it hasn't even been a year yet, so there's still plenty of time for it to grow and evolve. Even a console like the Nintendo DS had to start somewhere.
