Why is the Switch still not getting big games from 3rd parties?

Even in portable mode, Switch's GPU is better than PS3's. If we look at games they share, like FIFA 18 and Skyrim,  Switch performs better both docked and undocked.

Switch ports of PS4/Xbone games wouldn't have to be cut back as much as Wii ports from PS3, because the power gap is much smaller in the former case.

Switch has weaker GPU in undocked mode in terms of raw power than PS3. It has some advantages like modern architecture, shaders and all but still we are talking about PS4 and Xbox one games here. The hardware power difference is big even in docked mode. Like i said Doom shows how big it really is in practice. Doom is also one of the best looking and running games on PS4 so think how bad a game like MHW will look that runs at a much lower framerate on PS4.

I know Switch is more comparable to PS4 than Wii was to PS3 but the difference is still really big.

In raw FLOPS maybe, but that doesn't tell you much when comparing parts with different architectures and different manufacturers, made a decade apart. In real world performance, Switch's GPU outperforms PS3's even undocked; for instance, FIFA 18 and Skyrim undocked still have better graphics than the PS3/360 versions.
