Will it really though ?  No 3rd party game yet to cross a million.   Best one is Mario Rabbits by Ubisoft.  About a month and a half after the PS4s release 3rd parties had achieved multiple milion sellers.

Likely they will try see low sales and wont bother much quickly after.  It's been nearly ten month and best is 570,000 a game with Mario in it. 

Switch is around 9 months on market and still has instal base less than 10m, of course that not single one 3rd party game didnt cross a million. PS4 and XB1 are different because 3rd party games are actually on first place system seller games for those platforms.

Multiplatform port don't need to sell more than 1m in less than 10 months or to be sell on pair like on PS4 to be considered success or to make profit to dev. And like I already wrote, most of 3rd parties that released games on Switch commented how they are satisfied about sales of those games and promised actually strong support.

Yahh I don't put much weight behind pr statements.

It doesn't matter what PS/xb is or is not to 3rd party games, if switch is to get legit 3rd party support they are competing with Playstation and Xbox for that support.  For the resources of 3rd parties, and the question is quickly raised aren't they better spent on PS/Xb.  

Sales will dictate the future support, and it's just not looking all roses.
