I don't think anyone is of the opposite mind. That doesn't mean, however, that a platform needs those games to be successful. Plenty of portables have done just fine without them. And even if the Switch got those, the general gaming public still wouldn't consider the Switch their primary platform for those games, mainly because of its poor online infrastructure and the power gap with its competitors. Same thing that happened to the Wii U, really.
And about selling PS4 numbers: it's been a while since I checked the figures, but I remember the PS4 surpassing the 3DS' lifetime sales just recently. That's after 4 years in the market vs 6 of the 3DS, and the 3DS was never as appealing as the Switch is. It certainly didn't manage to capture this much mindshare. If the 3DS did that well without any (worthwhile) FIFA, Madden or Call of Duty entry, I don't see why the Switch wouldn't be able to do just as well.
Isn't Minecraft on the way, anyways?
