No, people just forgot how compression works these days because they are lazy fucks. Also, Borderlands 2 GOTY edition was less than 12GB on disc and less than 10GB download on PC so, stop smoking crack.

If I'm on crack I dread to think what you are smoking. Do you not have a clue that such a low performance console will have to cut out some of the content or reduce quality for much of the the game anyway, texture quality etc. There will be natural shrinkage anyway. It would probably end up on a 8GB/64Gb cartridge especially as third party games previously for cartridge games tended to go for smaller sizes of cartridges to reduce upfront costs and their stock investment in cartridges. Whatever it would be a hopeless version which only a small number of people would buy especially like here in the UK where the cartrige prices are £60 suggested retail and the far superior versions will enter retail well below that and be discounted quite quickly. It's simply not commercially realistic. 

We seem to be going through the same process as wii u where people where expecting wii u ports of big third party games but there simply was no commercial demand for them.  There has never been any evidence or track record of people paying high prices for mobile games and lets face it android and apple have if anything pushed prices well down causing Nintendo problems for even 3DS cartridge pricing but Switch is well above those.

So many reasons why the Switch is not a good format for this game.

So basically, you are saying storage is not a problem anyways, now your orginal post is moot. and I do smoke weed occasionally, I live in WA lol. I also don't remember when the last time Borderlands wasn't cel-shaded, like we need horse power for that shit lol. Not that I've played one since 2 TBH, lost interest already, Gearbox needs to come up with something new IMO.
