And you think Switch Nintendo games are costing more than the PS360?

Some games from gen 7th for which the costs are nothing compared to gen 8th as you said... so how much did Zelda and Mario for Switch costed?

Correct, this is why it is cheap to make game for Switch when most third party AAA games are port only. Since when i said Switch games are costing more? With Nintendo ability, their games never cost tens of millions to make while still get great quality, even GOTY. Some games from 7th gen which the costs are nothing compared to gen 8th are some AAA games here, as i said before, the biggest Nintendo game: Zelda only need to sell 2 mil to be a success, just show how good Nintendo is at managing the budget. Some games like Witcher 2 budget are nothing compared to 3, Uncharted 3 have the cost can't compared to 4, or Killzone 3 compared to Horizon are laughable. 

You didn't. You basically said games on Switch cost less than on PS4 because it is like a gen difference on the power... still that wouldn't explain why they are also a lot less expensive than gen 7.

Nintendo don't use a lot of the what makes the budget higher, it isn't mostly a matter of managing budget, it is not having VA, not using very high quality assets, photo-realistic look, etc.
