It does depend on the game and is a case-by-case thing, but at this point Switch has had enough successful third party ventures that they're still coming as it approaches its 4th year, with no sign of stopping. If there really was no money to be made as ryuzaki suggests, we'd be seeing the same scenario as Wii U where by now they would all have long since abandoned the platform.

The Wii U is a different story. It sold so poorly that Nintendo stopped supporting it instantly. Even BotW sold under 2 million. But I suspect Wii U production already ended at that point.

For what its worth I think Just Dance stuck around for a while.

Well yeah, that's kinda the point, Wii U was a different story; third parties couldn't find success on it, so after the first year they bailed. With the Switch, it's still getting plenty of third party games in its fourth year, which proves ryuzaki's point wrong about there being no money to be made and only Just Dance and Nintendo games selling.
