A full on successor that early is unlikely. A pro version makes more sense to sort of ride out the inevitable period of 8th to 9th gen cross gen games. I think the earliest a Switch 2 could launch would be holiday 2022 but even that feels unlikely. Early 2023 to holiday 2023 seems more likely.

PS5 & XB1 comes in 2020, at that point Switch probably stops getting multiplat 3rd party support.
You could be right, nintendo simply goes "we dont care anymore about it, we re riding this gen out without any support"
Hopefully by then, they have sold so many units that devs will want to keep makeing games for it reguardless.
I just assume by then (2021) nintendo will have launched a new console instead, rideing the coat tails of 3rd party multplats from the PS5/XB2.
People say nintendo switch is 9th gen, and their gen ahead.... it see it as them being behinde the others, and assume they would want to try and stick to the others atleast.

AAA support=/=3rd party support.
Look at the 3rd party support on Switch. It's mostly indies, Japanese games, previous gen ports/remasters, kid/family titles, retro compilations, mid sized free-to-play games.
The type of games you are talking about already dont come to Switch.
