What is going to sell better on the Switch, Skyrim or FIFA 18?

I'm sorry but your point is completely lost on me. FIFA on PS3 and 360 never ran on Frostbite and also didn't have The Journey (which is more of a bonus mode which has received mixed reactions anyway).

It's perfectly understandable why FIFA on Switch doesn't run on Frostbite as well. Considering it looks good and runs 60 fps @ 1080p I fail to see what the big deal is...

Frostbite 3 was first used in Battlefield 4, a PS360 game.  That's my issue, Fifa is just plain not as demanding as that game so they have no excuse for not using Frostbite other than being cheap.  It's plain old dishonesty and that's never ok.  And my point isn't that the Journey is a super important feature objectively, but that its absence is 1) completely unnecessary and 2) going to (and has) brand the Switch version as gimped.  And the fact other features also seem to be limited for no good reason will only make it worse.

Yeah but that's my point. You say EA not using a PS360 engine is inexcusable but they never used it for FIFA on PS360 in the first place. Or were you also angry at EA when they didn't go Frostbite for PS360? I figure you weren't. So I really don't see how you can make a problem out of this. Unless you compare it to the PS4/XBO version, but than you have the obvious huge difference in hardware capabilities.
