With all the cool things the Switch has to offer give some ideas for the switch! It would be cool for the Switch to have Pokemon, you could play it on the TV or on the go!

I think that is inevitable now that its portable and would make more sense to create for only one system and not two. Plus they aren't restricted to only have the main series of games on the portable. They can now do whatever they feel like.

Kind of annoying that it may only have 3 hour battery life

I heard From Software will support the Switch. Dark Souls on Switch? Yes please.

Also Star Fox.

3 hours?...for real?...that's terrible battery life. Well I can only hope that 3 hours is not the real life span and its more like 5-7. 5-7 would make more sense and that would be portable. 3 hours can't really do much, especially if your on a flight across the globe.

IDK how they are going to have specs that compete with Xbox and Playstation and make it portable with decent battery life.

What cool things are you talking about exactly? It's portable, what else is there?

I have this great idea for switch to have the best jRPG series ever.

Bravely Default 3.

Just talking like what do you want the Switch to have? What features do you want it to have? What games and/or applications do you want it to have? Stuff like that.

MGSV Definitive Edition. MGS4 while you're at it... And HD MGS 2 & 3 for good measure.

Simple: Specs won't compete with Xbox or PlayStation. I think it will have the 8GB of RAM that Xbox and PlayStation do because it's cheap and makes your system easy to develop for.

I'm not even sure processing and graphics between mobile and desktop systems can be compared. If you were to compare them, it doesn't look very good...
Check here the SunSpider benchmark (tests CPU, graphics, and software, so not great, but...): http://www.macworld.com/article/3008554/ipad/benchmarks-the-ipad-pro-is-the-fastest-ipad-ever.html
iPad Air 2 - this is similar to NX performance
And then Surface 4 Pro, which is not even a real computer, beats it by 50%.

And battery life will be the opposite of what you're thinking: About 10 hours. That's how long good full-size tablets (>= 8 inch diagonal) batteries tend to last.

Nintendo says the Wii U tablet battery lasts 8 hours. Whoops, that's the high capacity one. The standard one lasts 4 hours. No worries though, I think.
