Can you point in the direction of one? Spent some time looking on Aliexpress for example, and can't find anything. Also looked for a phone or tablet with a VA panel and the only thing close I can find are the aforementioned oldish drawing tablets. Pretty much everything in the mobile space is OLED, IPS (of varying qualities), or if you go very low end non-IPS TFT (mostly TN.)

VA seems to be limited to gaming monitors and TVs from what I have seen. Haven't seen VA in a mobile device. 

Manufacturers can do "runs" of varying sizes if need be.

But here is a 10.4" Tablet VA panel.

Sharp also do a 7" and 6.4" VA Panel.

Sure, but why go through the R&D and planning for a custom screen when you can buy something off the market that is already designed and "good enough" for the overwhelming majority of purchasers?

There is a reason why almost every PC Gaming handheld is using IPS or OLED, for example. 

Honestly, I do agree that modern VA would probably a be a good fit for the Switch 2 (and PC handhelds in general) as its main drawback (narrower viewing angles) is less of an issue in that circumstance. But the supply just doesn't seem to be there (as evidenced by the two panels you shared being discontinued five years ago and mass-produced 15 years ago.) 

Although I suppose Nintendo could've induced supply (and demand would follow, for other devices to take advantage of excess production capacity) so it might have worked out (with some risk.)
