If Zelda and Mario didn't look so good this would be a complete mess.
Overpriced accessories. Online not ready to go day one. Launch lineup falls off a cliff and into an abyss after Zelda. No pack in game and will be priced slightly higher than a PS4/Xbox bundle.
Nintendo needs to be aggressive and quit acting like they're Apple. They can't honestly think parents who buy their kids Nintendo handhelds are going to go and upgrade for something that is $100 more.
Even the damn bit where they made the Zelda release date into the big thing was irritating.
Are all the online features really done only on a phone app? Might as well just use skype and calendar apps already on your phone.

Not surprisingly they are saying the Skyrim version is also the XB360/PS3 version too just like FIFA. This thing isn't just underpowered, it feels like the mobile portion is strapping the docked portion of games to actually be WEAKER than the Wii U. My gawd, is this really happening?!????

I'm sold! They should have led with it being a wank-sim.
When every kid on the block has a Switch but them and they complain to their parents that the 3DS isn't getting it done anymore they will pony up. Word of mouth goes a long way.
You can't expect people to go to a restaurant and pay three times the amount of money they could save by cooking at home but they do. When the black diamond steak is good, it's good.
Hard to say.
Checking some articles, Wii U seems to have about 350 gflops. None of Switch's games shown come close to X1 which is next at 1.3tf. However, Zelda Switch is higher res and better looking than Wii U's Zelda, so if I had to take to a guess, I'll estimate Switch has docked power of maybe 800 gflops..... 1 tf tops.
In mobile mode, everything takes a hit. I have a hard time believing it'll be less powerful than a Wii U, but you never know.
We'll see though. Just a matter of time DF does some kind of teardown analysis.
