@Octane Counting is hard apparently. They should have borrowed a procon from one of those devs that "has a switch but won't put their games on it.."

We can't port our game to the Switch because the last time we released a load of shovelware, nobody bought it, so clearly Nintendo gamers hate third-party developers.
We can't port our game to the Switch, because Nintendo gamers' standards are too high. I mean, Zelda? We can't compete with that...
@Krillin_ I'm still bothered that the second one happened (or rather was an excuse for bugs).
We can't port our game to Switch because the switch doesn't display every shade of brown and grey needed to be "gritty" or "edgy".
We can't port our game to Switch because the kickstarter, that was twice the budget for all the other systems we are putting it on combined, wasn't met.
We can't port our game to Switch because Nintendo gamers didn't beg us enough....bribery also accepted.

*We can't port our game because we don't have a dev kit.
*We can't port our game because the Switch was released well into our development cycle.
*We can't port our game because Nintendo won't advertise our game despite it being out for months on every other platform and maybe even on sale.
*Nintendo just aren't on our radar yet.
*Gaming industry is fine, we don't need them anymore. (Maybe with Atari coming back, we will take another look...)
*We can't port our game, because we don't want people to realise we have been slacking on the other consoles despite telling everyone the game could only be realised on super specs. We would look inferior. If people think specs don't matter...we are doomed!
I never drive faster than I can see. Besides, it's all in the reflexes.
We can't port our game to Switch because yes, Switch is less powerful than PS4 and Xone, and the reason why we release games for the most powerful consoles is that we try to hide the poor and shallow gameplay behind next-gen graphics and trivial narrative forced down your throat.
I used to be a ripple user like you, then I took The Arrow in the knee
We can't port to the Switch because the Switch is less powerful than other consoles. It'll take too much time and money to get the game working to an acceptable standard on the Switch.
...we...just don't want to. You see, once a "next generation" platform is launched, we are literally not able to use all of the skill and talent we amassed previously; it vanishes into the ether.
This is perfectly rational as it is the inverse of never moving one's software forward if they could because it was launched a certain way, etc.
No, regardless of how "powerful" the hardware might be and what it is capable of given the results so far produced, it isn't as "powerful" as Thing X so you know, it is just simply not possible to target it. Un-possible.
