Switch 2, with the benefit of DLSS, helps developers even more. Switch 2 is in a better position hardware-wise in 2025 than Switch was in 2017. |

That and publishers were nervous about Switch. 3DS may have been a success, but the launch and especially months after before the price cut was rough. Wii U was a failure, so that really turned off publishers.
