Actually wouldn't it? 

If I'm a Switch owner and I view MS/Sony as basically the same but I become a big Halo + Killer Instinct fan because those are on the Switch and I enjoy them ... guess which streaming service I'm more likely to choose ... xCloud + Game Pass please. 

Getting lots of fans of MS IP on the 100+ million Switch user base would be great for xCloud.

Would nintendo allow xCloud and Gamepass on Switch, if they know it could cut into their profit margins and game sales?
Maybe they would if Xbox gives them like 30-50% of the profits (from the servies on the switch), which then forced MS to up the price of xcloud+gamepass abit on the switch..

I think its unlikely to happend though.

If I'm a Switch owner I don't need xCloud on my Switch anyway. My TV or set top box or tablet or phone or PC likely will have an app for it, just like you don't need a Switch to watch Netflix.

MS doesn't need full cooperation here from Nintendo to benefit.
