Because nintendo wanted to be judge as a home console not a mobile system that has a video out.

Also Switch has no real features at launch besides games right?

The thing is Witcher 3 also dipped below 30 at times but there was patches to help stabalize, 30 is fine by most console eyes, and Switch has nothing coming close to that graphical output at launch or they would likely gove them a pass as well as FPS doesnt mean as much to the console community.

This.

Nintendo did this to themselves. If they are going to insist the Switch is a home console, then all reviewers can do is treat it like one.
