That just sounds like a Wii 2.0 situation to me. The Wii sold like crazy thanks to the motion controls gimmick but due to the console being so vastly underpowered there was no real third party support and as a result, most of the Wii game releases boiled down to shovelware.
And while this time the Nintendo gimmick seems aimed more at the core gamer crowd (Take your console game anywhere!) I'm still not convinced this won't be turning out the same way like the Wii did.
Btw: If you want BotW with better graphics you can play it using a Wii U emulator, all the 4k BotW your eyes can handle.
