It's not even like this is miles outside the realms of possibilities either to happen in the future, considering that a good amount of work was put into porting Halo to the DS years ago.

A playable demo of it exists, it got that far into production, and porting Xbox > DS is a whole lot more work than going X1/360 > Switch.

Holy guacamole, I had no idea this was a thing. Far out.
But yeah, porting from OG Xbox and 360 to the Switch shouldn't present much of an issue so long as the studio responsible is competent and given the necessary time and resources.

Also consider how Nintendo and MS seem to have a fairly friendly relationship now with things like Cuphead, Senua's Sacrifice, Minecraft and New Super Luckys Tales all coming to the Switch and all doing rather well on the platform from what I've seen as well, the ports of the first 3 listed there are amazing on the Nintendo handheld as well as I've given all of them between 20 - 100 hours!

Keep in mind as well when it comes to things like Halo 1-2 especially, those games have been ported from OG Xbox, to the 360 remaster of 1, the PC releases of both titles originally and now in the last few years they've been ported to the MCC on the X1 and next year we'll see them come to the PC via Steam yet again, so it's not like MS doesn't have a lot of experience in porting them from hardware to hardware over the years.
