The chances of that happening are really low.

First, the GC had great 3rd party support, even if it missed the most important titles.
Second, SNES support is pretty much equivalent to what PS4 has. Again, it will probably be SNES>GC>Switch/N64.

Yes, we have heard some developers say that they are happy with Switch's sales of their games. We even heard stories on how some sold the best on Switch.
But, considering, Switch already has more than 200 games, what we have heard is really not enough to say 3rd parties are making good money on Switch.

Also, how much have the "big" games sold on Switch? Talking about Doom, Skyrim, NBA, Fifa? Are they selling well or above expectations?

About the downgraded ports... you're speaking mainly about the games i wrote above, right?
Doom was ported because the engine was really flexible (i assume it will be the case of Wolfenstein 2); Skyrim is an old game; Fifa and NBA, i honestly can't say, 'cause i don't remember what i read about them! :D

And what about cartridges prices on Switch? Won't that affect sales of Switch games for those who already own another console?

I've also heard a few comments on how limited Switch is. And if that is true, remember that PS5 and next Xbox are 1-2 years away. Where does that leave "porting to Switch" and it's library potential?

First I wrote that Switch probably will have best 3rd party support after SNES (saying that Switch will have similar 3rd party like N64 doesnt make any sense beacuse N64 had around 300 games LT). Second Doom and Skyrim were just released, EA still didn't coment Fifa sales, while Take Two said they are satisfied with NBA 2K sales on Switch, juding to eShop Doom and Skyrim have good sales on Switch. Also Capcom, SQ, Bandai Namco...they all said they are satified buy Switch sales and promesid much stronger Switch support. Switch cartridges prices will no effect on sales of Switch games for those who already own another console because portability is what is game changer for those people in any case. 3rd parties will continue supporting and releasing games for Switch until Switch and their games sell good.

Also, about ours previous debate, Nintendo done it again, they announced Bayonetta 1 and Bayonetta 2 just around two months before launch.
