Could the Xbox Series S be the Bridge for Switch 2 to have more Last Gen Games?

My appreciation for Team Xbox continues to grow, if this is true. I already love Gamepass, but Nintendo is my preferred gaming environment, so if MS's decision to make a fully supported little bro to Series X leads to an entire generation of third party developers making weaker/stronger versions of the same game, and said weaker versions run well on Switch 2, then we Nintendo fans have a lot of thanks to give towards the Series S for paving the way for more native third party ports.

Switch has a lot of indies and some big third party games, but misses out on a lot of ones too. Cloud may be the permanent fixture to this problem one day, when fiber is everywhere, but until then we will need native games and the Series S increases the likelihood of those being made since it is so popular.

I completely agree with this, and I think in the long run Microsoft lowering the hardware barrier to entry for 9th gen is going to be appreciated by more people than criticized. Nintendo getting access to AAA third party again would be good for everyone
