Yeap the Switch has terrible third party support. Not as bad as the Wii U maybe, but yeah. Sports games? Nope. Top games every year from Ubisoft (Assassin's Creed? Nope), EA? Mass Effect or Anthem or Jedi Fallen Order? Nope. It's the Nintendo game system.

I have bought all of the NBA2K games on Switch (2K18, 2K19, 2K20, & 2K21), and they are all fantastic ports.  So, 2K at least seems to find it worthwhile porting their biggest franchise to the Switch on an annual basis.  EA might not think so, but that's their loss.  I haven't bought a Madden from them since Madden 13 on Wii U.  As soon as they stopped bringing their games to all platforms, I stopped buy from them.  And that was despite owning an XBox One the entire time.  It's all well and good that EA's market data research shows that many Switch owners also own an XBox One or a PS4, but that doesn't obligate me to support them on another system over the one I use most. 

Even EA seems to finally be waking up with Plants vs Zombies Battle for Neighbourville, Apex Legends, and the remasters of Burnout Paradise and Need for Speed Hot Pursuit all ported to Switch recently and Lost in Random and Knockout City announced to be on the way.
