if you count how manny wiiu games and 3ds games were made to be exclusive by nintendo themselves they are a crapton, if the switch gets as manny exclusive games as both home and portable consoles did it will be worth the money.
Also you do realize that every time nintendo had the most powerfull console except for the snes it sold porely?
besides the snes everytime nintendo wanted to to surpass sony playstation they lost and sold like crap like n64/GC and when they have a very underpowered one they actualy won with the wii lol.
no idea why you keep saying the joycons and the dock dont work, they work fine for me lol.
the 3ds - more so aimed for kids, the wii u lacked games but as stated, minus the usual nintendo titles whats left? nothing much hence the faulire.
there are reasons behind nintendo's failure and lets take the snes, kick ass machine would not consider it as a failure, then came the n64 and its failure started here, its ignorance to continue with old tech (carts) put devs off when it was cheaper and cd format offerred more.... yes the n64 had better graphics but it was costing more to produce, but the N64 still in my eyes had some great titles, the PS1 pissed all over it.
then came the cube, sony already had a good relationship with third parties and this carried over to the PS2, the cube had some great titles but again not that many, nintendo then promised better support but couldnt afford to take the risk so they revamped the cube.
the wii was marketed very well and did very well in sales, but its hardware was preventing it from getting the titles that third parties were pushing its games towards and it ended up littered with sports/party type games.
then came the wii u and sorry but nintendo's excuse its just a lie, it failed to get devs on board and again hardware, nintendo been cheap released a subpar last gen machine again with a bs tablet controller - it had minimal support and then it died pretty quickly.
we can see the same again, nintendo releasing another console thats not able to compete and knowing this nintendo add another bs gimmick to give it hype.
also to help prevent its sales looking bad, they decide to combine its home console market with its portable.... now to third parties and shareholders, this has to be a win win right?
but lets ignore the copied concept that it is, and look at it as what it is, a home console.... whats the chances of third parties releasing its AAA titles to it? very slim..... again.
nintendo can brag to the retards as much as they like on how they claim its sales are best ever (comparing to wii u), when the fact is, adding portable sales (3DS) to the console figure it falls short.
end of the day like any other nintendo console, it will prove it will be just another system with the usual nintendo titles.
i would bet both my testicles on this, it is fact third parties do not support nintendo as much as they do the other consoles, simply because nintendo refuse to spend money and make something that competes, they release cheap shit and over hype it.
most fans refuse to see this because theyre blinded.... i have a switch and i find its so called innovation a laughing stock, it shows how cheap and nasty and out dated the darn thing is, lucky for me it wasnt my money spent on it.
i will be willing to let anyone cut my happy sacks off if this console starts to get the great AAA third party titles the other systems get, thus giving gamers the option to buy said title rather than not have that option, because end of the day you buy a console to play games.

no idea why you keep saying the joycons and the dock dont work, they work fine for me lol.
try use your joycon as a wireless controller and move further than 5 feet from your dock, in fact im sure if you moved to the exit of which ever room i bet it wont stay connected.
now take your ps3 or ps4, 360 or xbx1 what ever and see the difference...... its 2017 and nintendo "innovate" cant get wireless controllers to work properly and why.... poor design and shit hardware.
"lets put a square piece of sponge t fix t problem"..... hmmm ok nintendont, lets not recall them and improve its hardware that performs better.
