Problem with this line of thinking is with the budgets of games today, are companies really going to put huge efforts into Switch games?

PS4/XB1 will be at around 80 million combined by year end, and 85 million-ish by the time the Switch even sells 1 unit.

Also Capcom's support for the 3DS outside of Monster Hunter games is actually rather mediocre for several years now. What happened to any future Resident Evil or Street Fighter games? Megaman in Smash maybe we could have a Megaman ga -- oh ok, no.

Nintendo fans should be leery of thinking these companies are magically going to treat the Switch like a special snowflake and put huge resources into a system that has a fraction of the userbase as their PS4/XB1/PC projects do.

It also could lead to an unfair 2 way street where PS4/XB1 get ports of Switch games, since that will be easy to do, but Switch misses a lot of PS4/XB1 because that will be harder to accomodate. Resident Evil Revelations ended up on PS3/360 ... but Resident Evil Revelations 2 .... no 3DS or Wii U. 

Nothing unfair about it, this is business, this kind of thinking is childish. Why not put a game on a system that is more popular to garner more sales? it would be foolish not to do it.
