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.

Games on Switch are a lot less expensive than gen 7. I don't think any big AAA open world game in gen 7 can be considered successful with just only 2 mil units sold. Not high quality assets or photo-realistic look can be make up by art style and clever designs with suitable colors. VA? You seem to forget Xenoblade, FE Echoes and FE Warriors also have full VA, even BoTW have VA, Metroid Other M also have VA and CGI cutscenes.
