I don't really know.. Maybe because Nintendo stop making Wii U games two (!) years ago for the sake of Switch?

I mean a point of comparison. Zelda isn't a point of comparison because you can't play Zelda on PS4, XBO, or PC. Call of Duty is because you can. Everything is relative. There's no relativity to the experience of playing Nintendo exclusives on Switch vs. everything else other than that you can't play them on everything else, which is not something the Switch does new.

What the Switch does new is play console games untethered to your TV. That's its value proposition. Without multiplats, that experience can only be compared to other systems with the same games, which are Nintendo systems. That gives portability the same value with the same audience as all Nintendo systems have had, success or failure. Without multiplats, portability adds no value that Nintendo exclusives didn't already had because the only games it effects are Nintendo exclusives.

With multiplats, it the value of portability applies to all multiplats. If you own a PS4/XBO/PC, every software purchase decision must now factor in the Switch when deciding what you want to buy your game. Each platform has a reason to buy it there. The Switch's reason is portability. If those people cared about Nintendo exclusives, they would have bought a Wii U.

Switch needs the Red Deads and the ME:As too. Maybe not all in the first year, but eventually.

FF15 is the top game in amazons best sellers.   No game needs the switch lol but Switch will need all the help it can get not to flop like the wiiu.  And given its pathetic power it will not get it.  

of dock its what 1/10th the og PS4s power, none of thsoe are coming to the switch.  

I'm just saying from Nintendo's POV I don't think they really care too much about higher hardware spec. 

It just makes game more expensive to produce at the end of the day, the idea that they were willing going to go running to a massively more powerful piece of kit just 4 years after starting the Wii U was probably misguided from the start.

2x the Wii U in docked mode sounds about right.

Well, going by flops only (I don't think that's right but oh well), then undocked Switch is around 7-8 times more powerful than a Vita. That's sounds impressive from the handheld perspective.

Well here's something that crossed my mind. When WiiU was getting ports, developing games on previous gen engines and porting them to PS3 and X360 was still a thing. Today it's not common as most devs are moving forward to newer engines with the 8th gen systems in mind.

well then hopefully it maanges to surpass vita sales, if it can.  

its not a pure handheld now is it.  Its a good excuse but but its portable.  But ninty fans were acting like all the big titles are coming that switch will be comparable to PS4 or atleast X1 two home consoles.  

Or you could compare it to y'know the Nintendo portable, the 3DS, which has sold 60+ million units instead of the Vita.
