| LethalP said: Fallout 4 might come to Switch, but if it does it's in Bethesdas good graces because they would literally have to recreate assets for significantly weaker hardware. The crux of the problem for most AAA games. Kingdom Hearts III might be a thing on Switch, but it will be a simplified version. Developers can't just port games to Switch from PS4 and simply turn down graphics settings. They have to redo the pipeline and that takes time. One of the reasons why Switch versions get delayed. To be clear, anything that can easily put on Switch will be. It's a successul console so why not? What's to loose? But when you have to start rewriting your renderer just to run on weaker hardware maybe it's just not worth the effort. So power is indeed a big factor for developers, contrary to your op.

From what I've seen, Fallout 4 doesn't look like anything the Switch couldn't handle without some adjustments, so it is possible. As for Kingdom Hearts III, that's Unreal Engine 4, a very scale-able and flexible engine, so while it would take some work, it wouldn't require completely re-developing the game from scratch.
