Nintendo looking to support the Switch for more than the traditional 5-6 year period

That totaly make sense because Switch is Nintendo unified platform, and it will have multiply revisons with possibility of Switch Pro/Switch2 or similar that will probably support same games (look at PS4 Pro and Xbox X).

I believe what Pagan is asking is how will Switch be able to get ports of games designed for PS5/XB2.
A Switch Pro wouldn't help in that regard, because as you said, the games for Switch Pro would still need to run properly on vanilla Switch.

But on that note, in the beginning games developed for PS5 will often be cross generation back to PS4, as per usual.
Although the jury is still out on how well Switch can handle ports of high end PS4 games that don't already run at 60f. But this along with the idea that Sony and MS won't necessarily rush out their next consoles, but take their time with this generation, could be favorable for everyone.

Well base PS4 and Xbox S are getting games despite Pro and X. And at end everything is about profit, if Switch sales and Switch games are still selling some 3rd party will definitely still port some games to Switch despite PS5/XB2.
