I personally believe it will do better than Wii U simply because it has a new Zelda game as a launch title. Wii U still doesn't have a new Zelda game and how old is it now? Granted Wind Waker and Twilight Princess are good games, us gamers wanted a new Zelda experience that Skyward Sword really didn't deliver on Wii. Long time between good Zelda games. Wii U also failed because Nintendo supported 3ds A LOT more. Besides Mario Kart, Mario, Smash Bros or Donkey Kong, Wii U doesn't offer much that Sony or Microsoft can't do better.
With that said, I want the Switch to succeed. I will buy it when I can, and continue to buy games I like on it (just so long as Nintendo doesn't stop supporting Switch.)
Only thing I absolutely despise about the Switch is the pay the play online, and the fact they give you a "free" game per month kind of like ps4 or xbox........except they take that game away after 30 days. WTF? I won't buy any online games for the Switch as long as that crud continues. I'll only buy single player and/or games with good local co op. I won't pay for their incompetence.
