Whats the difference between this and the already released nintendo switch edition?

1) This is the "Bedrock" version of Minecraft which used to be referred to as the "Pocket Edition." It can play online cross-platform with any other Bedrock version (X-Box, Windows 10, etc.) but cannot cross-play with the "Java" version of Minecraft, which is the default/original/primary PC version. 2) There are no mini-games. There is a store where you can buy worlds, textures, and the like but default Player-VS-Player and Glider modes have been removed. 3) The graphics are slightly updated. 4) I'm not sure how Redstone functions between the two. There's an odd difference between the "Java" edition and the "Bedrock" edition for redstone but I don't know how that transitions to the original Switch only edition.
