Well, looks like next gen didn't kill Switch third party support

Come on you grasping here, Switch could draw from any console sinnce master system for 3rd party software, what impact would ps5 and XboxSx have on that? None. Swit h can still draw on any smallwr 3rd party game from this gen but it sure as hell aint gonna get the bigger ones is it. RE8? Rdr2? AC valhalla? Cyperpunk? COD? Battlefield? Switch is always gonna get shitty ports of old games with a couple of exceptions. No need to try defend this, its been happening since 2017.

Just gonna pretend Sony's big game at the State of Play wasn't just a PS4 port of an RPG remake with new DLC?

Step aside, no one needs to defend anything.  Switch's library had more than enough quality content from 1st and 3rd party devs to keep me using my PS4 Pro for only 2-3 games a year.  The majority of my time was on Switch.  Even with gamepass and my XSX, the next couple of months are stacked with games on Switch I will be pre occupied with instead.  The only difference we have seen with the new consoles is more 3rd party exclusives than before, which is far from loss of 3rd party support.

The Switch never needed those big games you listed (most of which are overrated as hell like RDR2) to be a great platform, and that has not changed.  The Switch defends itself just fine.  This entire thread is merely just a response to people who expected a "cliff" that is no where in sight, and clearly that bothers a few people.
