How did they turn out? They're the worst-selling 1st party titles on the Switch and by a good margin too. Sure they still sold pretty well, but a lot of it I think was down to the launch window hype and stuff. Also, they weren't nearly as confusing as this, at least not to me - at least Arms wasn't confusing at all, it was a fighting game using the Joycon's motion controls for punching, in fact that's as simple and straightforward as it gets.
1-2-Switch was definitely more confusing and I've no idea how it sold as well as it has, but it was at least cheaper than your average game (not more expensive), and didn't involve you getting loads of cardboard along with it. Also, launch hype.

When they are the worst selling 1st party titles on the system and they both sold over 1 million and counting in less than the systems 1st year, they are only giving more faith in this. 
It only needs to do like 500k at most lifetime to be worth while anyway.

Being profitable does not necessarily make it "worthwhile" for a company like Nintendo. Not when those resources could have been used to create something else that could make them more money. Just sayin'.
This may very well be a success for Nintendo, but for me, I wish these resources went into making something more my style.
