We’re still in the cross-gen period, not next gen. I’ll be shocked if Switch gets ports of any games that are designed from the ground up for PC/PS5/Xbox Series. Not only is there a huge discrepancy in CPU, GPU, and RAM, but Switch has very slow storage compared to the NVMe SSD’s of PS5, Xbox Series, and modern gaming PC’s. Nintendo will definitely need to release Switch 2 once the truly next gen period starts, if they want to keep getting AA/AAA support from the west, though some JP devs will still support it since Switch is selling so well in Japan.

That's the thing, the Switch doesn't need to get ports of games built from the ground up for PS5 and Xbox Series. Between indies, Japanese devs, and the backlog of PS4/Xbone it already has plenty to draw on for years to come, and current AAA games have never been a major staple of its lineup.
