It would seem that some people do not understand that while 1st party games are the main reason people choose Nintendo, and even get away with less support than the competition, having 3rd party support to some extent is still important for the success of the device.

Indies are important for Switch, AAA support is not. 

They are still important to the Switch, although to a lesser degree. For instance, the Switch would have tanked in Europe without Fifa. Having the likes of Skyrim, Doom, Diablo, Mortal Kombat, The Witcher 3 or Wolfenstein on the system is certainly helping the system, but unlike Playstation and Xbox, it's not what defines the system by a long shot.
