Dont your first and second paragraph kinda contradict each other?

First you say 3rd parties wont support Switch when PS5/XB4 release because it will be too weak.

Then you say being being weaker requires less resources so its not a problem for 3DS.

So which is it, will 3rd parties not support Switch because its weak and cant handle multiplats or will they support it because its weak and requires less resources?

 

 

With that said, i do not expect Switch to still be their main platform in 2025.

Well, I figure 3rd party will treat the Switch more as a home console, so they'll be looking at whether they can port their AAA games to the system, which may become problematic as time goes on. Japanese 3rd party though won't have as much of a problem. In that case, perhaps it'll only be a western problem in terms of 3rd party.

With all this said, I'm totally fine with being wrong and Switch living that long. I'm just looking at it at a more realistic/pessimistic view.

Well thats the thing, if they cant support it like a home console than they will resort to supporting it like a portable console which is small-medium sized games which include indie games, Japanese games, family/kid games & previous gen ports/remasters.

Doesnt that basically describe its current 3rd party support along with the type of support 3DS & Vita primarily received? So in other words, nothing changes.

 

I agree with you that it probably wont be selling much by 2025, i just dont agree with the reasoning you gave.
