Well yes of course if for some reason it was only ever going to be NES games that would suck. But I see no reason to assume that. Just as the VC has never launched with all systems, this service isn't launching with all systems as well. Obviously they are not gonna just throw away a lot of money by not offering SNES, N64, etc games in some way on the system, whether through this service or the eshop. But I see no reason to think they won't add more systems, just like the VC added more systems over time. When the VC launched they didn't announce every system that would eventually be available on it. Obviously only NES games would with no way to get other games would suck (though of course all the NES games available and with online play is itself freakin awesome and well worth the $20/year price), but there's no reason to think what we get at launch is everything that will ever be available considering that is never the way it has been.

It's not that I'm assuming there wont ever be anything beyond NES, it's just a fact that only NES games are confirmed. You can't expect people to take imaginary assumptions over tangible facts when evaluating the service.

I'm pretty sure there were numerous people that were convinced that voice chat would be available on the Switch without the phone app, and the phone app was just going to be another option because while the phone app was the only announced way to get voice chat, "there was no reason to assume otherwise".
