If Switch actually sells and become popular, 3rd party will stay, its very simple.

 

It's more complicated than that.

At end of day that is most important, its also important that Switch supports all modern engines and that its seems thats is easy  to work/port for it, but even if is basically PS4 just with Nintendo logo 3rd party would abandoned very quickly if it doesn't sell.
