I didn't say it was the same as the campaign, but zombies or the campaign are basically the same whether you play them single player or in co-op, so co-op itself does not add to file size in any significant way. A side mode like zombies is not a game unto itself, games have had side modes for decades without taking up hundreds of gigabytes.

As mentioned, even back when this problem started, Witcher 3 was like half the size of the same year's Black Ops 3 while having better graphics and more content, and the same year also saw Star Wars Battlefront look much better and take up less space. And that before the file sizes got as bad as they are now, it's only gotten worse since. A big file size is understandable to an extent, but to this degree? I don't buy it.

Switch 2 owners will obviously not be bothered by their games looking like Switch 2 games rather than PS5 games, they knew when they bought their system that it was not a high spec console. And there's no evidence that the "sales are not there" at this point as it hasn't been tried yet.

 

Zombies and the campaign isn't even close to being the same.  At this point I am not even sure you even know the difference between the 2 different modes.  They are totally different and separate games with totally different maps and environments.

Witcher 3 really isn't the comparisons you want to keep using.  Use another Frist person shooter that has SP, MP and a separate CO-OP campaign.  We are not talking apples to apples here.  Even still, would you even know what is the size of the campaign compared to the size of MP and then the size of the Zombie mode.  You do know that COD has allowed you to install those separately for a while now.

You keep talking about switch 2 owners like they are some monolithic group, instead just say you because all switch owners are not the same.  I could easily say that Switch 2 owners have no interest in COD because that isn't what sell the on platform and the people who would purchase COD on Switch are people who already buy COD on the other platforms and would not want a crapy looking port.  

I'm not saying zombies and the campaign are the same.

And I'm aware they're installed separately; personally I'm not interested in the multiplayer stuff, but a lot of people are and so are stuck with enormous file sizes.

COD hasn't released on Switch/2 so there's no evidence at this stage that owners would have "no interest in COD". A lot of Switch 2 owners don't have a PS5/PC/Xbox Series. You also don't know that it would look "crappy", the port could turn out competent.
