The way I see it, partly a good thing, partly not.

On the one hand, it's cool being able to play previously exclusive games/IPs like Ori on Switch.

On the other, games tailored specifically for a certain hardware tend to take better advantage of that hardware than ports/multiplats. Switch so far has less such games than, say, the Wii, which is a shame.

I think that's more because motion controls went out of style (which Switch can do), and Gyro controls never were popular in the Wii U (which Switch can also do). So it makes sense developers aren't making games use those console features much. But the one big feature EVERYONE is doing is the ability to play in handheld only mode. That isn't a must. We could easily have some developers make games that only work in docked mode, but they aren't. In that sense, using that feature, we have thousands of games using the Switch's main unique feature.
