While I would like to see those types of games on the Switch, I think people are right that the audience isn't on the Switch. First off they would have to make cuts to the game to get it to run on the Switch which would make the game worse (as opposed to if the game was built from the ground up for Switch's specs level). Also people who are really into CoD already have a PS4 or Xbox. Some of them also have a Switch, but they aren't gonna buy a pared down version for the Switch instead of the game as it was meant to be on one of the other systems that they already own. By not bringing quality CoD games to Nintendo systems they have created an audience that exists only on PS/Xbox systems and doesn't exist in much force on Nintendo systems. Now if they went and built a AAA Call of Duty game specifically for the Switch and exclusive to the Switch I'm sure that'd sell millions, but not a pared down lower quality version of a game that was built for ps/xbox spec level. Switch can handle some ps/xbox games by just adjusted frame rate and resolution down or cutting out some graphical details and whatnot, but Switch isn't going to be able to handle the super realistic graphical games that push the ps/xbox hardware.

I'd like to see some AAA shooters come out on Switch made for Switch so they are top quality and we don't even need to talk about CoD on the Switch because that niche will already be filled.
