If you look at the Switch titles:
1-2-Switch - Some game to show off new features.
Just Dance 2017
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - Cross gen game.
Skylanders: Imaginators - Merch game.
Super Bomberman R
I Am Setsuna
Tokyo RPG Factory
Snipperclips - Another new feature game.
Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove - Shovelware
Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment - Shovelware
Fast RMX
I could see either a new Mario game launching on the Switch and Switch 2, maybe a Metroid game instead. Zelda will be too old and played out by then, but then Zelda fans love buying the same game over and over.
Hold the GODDAMN heck up, did you just call Shovel Knight Shovelware???? b r u h
Ported from another platform with little to no effort?
It's the literal definition of shovelware.
The Switch was literally the last of 11 platforms it launched on.
Also, by your definition, Skyrim and Witcher 3 are also Shovelware.
Which, I want you to think hard about for maybe 1 min.
On the Switch? They absolutely were. An afterthought at best.
