It's possible that the folks who consider frame rate more important than resolution and AA and god rays also consider 30 FPS acceptable. I know I do. Achieving 60 FPS isn't very important to me, and things like textures and lighting effects are even less important. 

I guess it's kind of a moot point, as I don't plan to buy 2K18 for any platform

The point isnt that 30fps is or isnt acceptable, i think it is although id imagine sports games benefit from framerate. I just think the priority should probably be on framerate, and id argue the reason no one is complaining has more to do with wanting to promote one of Switch's "big third party" ports. Its all about framerate until it isnt, lol.

But what would really be considered a gimped port in this case?  Leveling the framerate to 30 FPS, or achieving 60 FPS but leaving out entire features like My Career, My GM, or My Player Story?  I have to believe that more people would buy a feature complete game over one that only prioritized the frame rate.  It's built with the same engine as the other current gen versions with all the same modes as those versions have.  I bought a Madden game on 3DS once that didn't even have a Franchise mode.  I traded it in almost immediately.  Features and modes are more important, to me anyway.  I'll be getting NBA 2K18 on Switch when it releases.
