A lot of people really want Nintendo to go third party so they can play their games on PS/Xbox/Steam/etc, and so desperately try to will their downfall into existence and get frustrated and deny when they do well. (Wii, Switch, Switch 2)
That said, in this case even a large share of Nintendo fans, myself included, didn't have high hopes for Switch after the Wii U debacle, when it seemed Nintendo just went out of their way to step on every possible rake.
