Overwatch is kinda demanding on pc, don't see how that would happen unless they really tried to make a good port

Are you sure? PC min specs look rather humble. Other PC versions of Switch ports are in the same class of raw power.

• Operating system: Windows Vista/7/ 8/10 64-bit (latest Service Pack)
• Processor: Intel Core i3 or AMD Phenom X3 865.
• Video: Nvidia GeForce GTX 460, ATI Radeon HD 4850, or Intel HD Graphics 4400.
• Memory: 768 MB VRAM, 4 GB System RAM.
• Storage: 7200 RPM with 5 GB available HD space

Steep's minimum tech requirements are even a well bit higher than Overwatch's and it's getting released on the Switch no problem, so I think it's possible even if it means a bit of tweaking.

Supported OS: ​Windows® 7 SP1 or Windows 8.1 or Windows® 10(64bit versions)
Processor: Intel Core i5 2400s at 2.5 Ghz or AMD FX-4100 at 3.6 Ghz
Memory: 6GB
Video Card: GeForce GTX560Ti or AMD Radeon R7 260X
DirectX: DX 10
Hard Drive Space: 25 GB

It's also not the only online shooter coming as Splatoon 2 is coming, meaning just because the Switch is a portable doesn't mean it will miss out on that genre, besides local play could always be a thing.
