The Switch will continue to get third party support, money talks more than tech specs. And the Switch will have a huge install base probably 60+Million by the time the PS5 and Xbox SX launch, so there would be a huge market for third party developers to take advantage of on the Switch and make a decent profit making games for the platform. Plus it's not like the PS4 and Xbox One will completely stop receiving 3rd party games as soon as the 9th gen systems release since developers want to take advantage of the large install bases of those two 8th gen systems, even Microsoft admitted that there's gonna be little to no next gen exclusive software for at least the first 1-2 years and rumors are suggesting the same for the PS5, so the Switch will still be able to get the PS4 and Xbox One versions of third party games well after the Xbox SX and PS5 launch.

And by the time the PS4 and Xbox One no longer receives the same 3rd party games from PS5 and Xbox SX, Nintendo will probably start launching their Switch Successor sometime in 2023 or 2024 to keep up the PS5 and Xbox SX hardware. So imo the Switch will be fine when it comes to getting third party support even when 9th gen systems release.
