That may be true, or it may not be.  Either way, it is higher than zero.  So, more third party support helps Nintendo.  

So pay 3rd parties millions of dollars (like Sony and MS) do all to gain 1-2% increase in sales on a console that already consistantly sold out?

They don't pay millions for Multiplatform... they do pay for exclusive marketing, early access, exclusive contant and other silly things... eventually they pay for temporary exclusive, permanent exclusive or 2nd party deal.

But Nintendo could pay the expected extra cost to port a version of some games Switch may miss to ensure a initial traction on the game.
