Part of the problem is their insistence on keeping the 3DS alive, it's still getting a fairly big amount of in-house developer attention, which is pulling resources away from where they should be; the Switch.

Is it though?

2018 1st party 3DS titles

March-Detective Pikachu (localization of a 2016 game)

June-Sushi Striker (also coming to Switch same day)

July-Captain Toad (also coming to Switch same day)

August-WarioWare (compilation of existing minigames)

2018-Luigi's Mansion (port of 2001 Gamecube game)

 

None of this really screams major support or something that is taking games from Switch.

And Luigi's Mansion is likely using Dark Moon's engine so the port is presumably easier than usual.

Heck, you forgot to mention Mario and Luigi Bowser's Inside Story, which is using the Dream Team engine.

As for Wario Ware, its likely due to the fact that it fits 3DS more than Switch due to its touch screen nature (not that the Switch doesn't have a touch screen)
