I'm thinking that up until 2023 or so, support will either increase, or stay as is. However, I doubt it's gonna drop off before then. Since every AAA game released for the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X has to run on the base models, it won't depend on when the next gen consoles release, but when support ends for the current gen ones. Devs supported the PS3 and 360 for a couple years after the PS4 and Xbox One released due to the install base, so we're probably gonna be getting current gen games until around 2023, which will have to be cut down to Switch power as usual. After that is when things will get sketchy, unless the install base is crazy high.

Well this is true, but at that point the PS4 and X1 will be pushed more than they are now, even the base models.  This still presents a problem when it comes to ports on a base model Switch.

 

It is a fair point, but we will not know for sure how easily it can be done.  I do believe Japanese support will still be heavily present however as they are not as demanding anyway.
