It we talk specifically about ES VI and Starfield, we don't know when those games could come (not before 2020. earliest), maybe they will not come even on current gen at all. Saying that, if they want that ES VI similar like Skyrim and to be available on every platform out there, they will have on mind Switch during development same like they while they were working on Doom 2016, espacily because probably that ES VI engine will be use later for some other games.

That's the thing. I think that if Skyrim 6 had in mind the Switch, we would know it, the same way we know about Doom.
If they are next gen games - i think they are - then the chances will be really slim: it will depend on Switch 2 can run and if those games are really demanding or not.

Either way, i think the outlook for more Bethesda support for Switch isn't looking all that good.
But that's what you get when you release a console that isn't on par with the competition.

That dont make any sense, game is just confirmed thats in development, they did not mention any specific platform they developing TES6 for, we dont have idea when game could be out (2020. earliest), while we get information that Doom 2016. coming to Switch only 2 months before launch. So, why we would know if they having  Switch on mind with Skyrim 6?

5 AAA games (plus some smaller games like Fallout Shelter) confirmed/released in first 1.5 year from one studio is good any case, especially if we talk about Nintendo platform, and when that studio didnt released almost nothing on last few Nintendo platforms.
