Why would at all showed at all NBA 2k and Skyrim running at Switch if they don't coming on Switch. There is zero sense, not to mention that both Bethesda and 2K confirmed support of Switch.


I find it a bit hilarious that it seems so far fetched to you that Nintnedo might have been a little "optimistic" in its marketing. It has used PS3 and X360 gameplay footage in previous commericals. Why does it seem so unreasonable that Nintendo might have done something similar again, except maybe for a game that isn't even in development. Have you considered that perhaps Nintendo included Skyrim in their ad as a way of trying to force Bethesda's hand to make the game? If Nintendo's NDA's are so taught that 2K Sports and Bethesda can't even announced games that were shown in the announcement video of a console to a point where people have legitimate concerns over whether those games are actually coming to those platforms, then Nintendo has dropped the ball. You need to come to terms with that.

Besides, the word "support" is a pretty vague wording. It could quite literally mean Nintendo asked for Bethesda's input when developing the NS, and Bethesda did so. In no way did their statement concretely say they were bringing games to the NS at all, much less Skyrim, much less the HD remaster. Any interpretation that says otherwise is "extremely optimistic" as mods here would undoubtedly prefer me to say.

It's totally different situation when you use footage of gameplay of another console of game that actually coming to your platform, and to show 3rd party game running on your system that actually doesn't coming at all to your system. It doesn't make sense at all.

Lol, using Skyrim on Switch to try to force Bethesda to make the games!? Bethesda would sued them and take millions of dollars from them.

 

Fact that almost none of partners from list did not confirmed or announced some specific game for Switch proves that isn't only about Bethesda and 2k, Nintendo even did not confirmed own games from Switch trailer (expect Zelda). Nintendo did not dropped ball, this trailer wasnt about games, focus was just on concept, games are just used to show that concept but offcourse they will use games that will come on platform, not just some random games, and they will talk about games another time, like Nintendo said:

"This video is all about explaining how the Nintendo Switch work. At a later date, before the March launch, we'll be talking about things like exact launch date, and of course, the games."

 

If you are platform holder and 3rd party say they are partner for your platform and they will suport your platform, you relly dont have nothing vague about that.

“We’re happy to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Nintendo on the video. While we are not confirming any specific titles at this time, we are pleased to announce our partnership with Nintendo and support of the Switch. We look forward to revealing specific games and details in the future.” - Bethesda representative

There is nothing vague about this statement.
