I dunno, that would require third parties to pull their heads out of their collective rectums and invest in the platform, something I just can't see happening, with Switch nearing its third birthday and the likes of Activision and Capcom still treating it like it's the Wii U.

Activision-Blizzard support has gotten progressively better and seems to give it pretty good support now. 2017 was just Skylanders then 2018 had Crash N. Sane & Diablo 3 and 2019 had Spyro Reignited, CTR Nitro-Fueled & Overwatch. Basically just missing CoD.

Activision output in general has declined significantly in the last few years, some of their teams went from developing original titles to being just CoD support teams and they have cut back on the amount of outsourced/published titles compared to previous generations.

They are basically just CoD+Crash/Spyro now.

As for the Blizzard side you might say those are just years old ports but those are also the only Blizzard games released on any console since Starcraft 64 in 2000 so kind of hard to imagine support being any better.

Not having Call of Duty of any sort is a missed opportunity though, even if the console titles cant be ported for whatever reason, not having CoD Mobile on it doesnt make much sense. Maybe it will come later.

In a world where Wii got 4 COD ports from PS3/360, I just don't buy for a second that PS4/Xbone COD games can't be brought to Switch, where the power gap is considerably smaller.
