Fallout 76 is a no go. Online only games will be far and few between. Not to mention, I don't even think Fallout 4 could run properly without serious rework, based on the fact it can't run on GPD Win 2 without a downgrade mod, while DOOM runs about on par with Switch. Which indicates it wouldn't be able to run on Switch, since the two systems are pretty even keeled in terms of capabilities.
Fallout 3 or New Vegas, on the other hand... That's what I'm expecting. It would run well, look good, and the games are well loved.
The only force working against this is the fact Wolfenstein 2 is being completely ignored. I see half baked indie games higher on the Amazon charts than Wolf2.
Maybe the people who want these AAA games on a souped up handheld really and truly are... a minority. As much as I hate to admit that.

They probably are, yes, but a vocal minority and one that will still vote with their wallets. My Youtube feed is full of people left and right praising the Doom port, excited for Wolfenstein, praying for a Fallout, any Fallout. People who want Madden, an Assassin's Creed, a Call of Duty. In other words, some form of parity with the other consoles, even if it's not the 1:1 full versions. I think those things would sell on Switch. Not as much as your Zeldas and your Marios, but they would sell enough to make doing it again worth it.

Oh, I'm one of them. I'll take a Switch version of Wolfenstein 2 with motion and hybrid functionality over a 4K X1X version any day.
And, though it is likely a minority, it's still probably a larger percentage than trying to compete with duplicate version #4.
@IceClimbers
Relatively. It still did millions afaIk, and there was the fact Assassins Creed and Mario released the same day, which isn't the case here.

Expecting much/anything from Ubisoft tonight? A Mario v Rabbids sized reveal or a port of Rayman 2 sized reveal?
I'm in 2 minds whether to pay £25 for Paladins or hold off and just play the free version. I'm not even sure if it's my thing but it has brilliant reviews. The cash just seems to be for cosmetic stuff and characters but they would only be of use to me if I actually like the game. If I do enjoy it though, then just like with Rocket League I will likely spend money on cosmetic stuff anyway. Can anyone here say that it's a really fun shooter and it's worth paying £25 for all that stuff you get?

"Expecting much/anything from Ubisoft tonight? "
I don't expect anything from Ubisoft, but if Ubisoft can provide Casual games (again) for Switch such as Petz series, Imagine series, some English localized of Japanese Nintendo games, i will pay attention for those games.
@OorWullie I've bought more Ubisoft games last couple years than from any other big publisher so I'm really excited about their conference. The crew 2, Division 2,and even Just Dance will all be day 1 purchases for me. If they throw in some Splinter Cell and an unexpected curve ball like Mario Rabbids they may just win the show in my eyes. Looking forward to it!
My Top 9 Favorite Games of All time.
1. Judgement
2. Baldur's Gate 3
3. Bully (Rockstar)
4. Person 4 / Golden
5. Sonic Adventure 2
6. Xenoblade X
7. Ape Escape 2
8. Animal Crossing: New Leaf
9. James Bond 007 Nightfire
This game looks immaculate for running on portable hardware. Wow.

Squeenix just went and I have to say I was a little disappointed. Only half an hour, a video presentation like Nintendo is doing, but not a lot of meat on them bones. There's a new IP from Platinum that looks interesting, coming to PS4, but otherwise it was pretty lackluster with not much new to show. Octopath Traveler didn't get much detail, but that makes sense given it's coming out next month. I'm far more salty over Dragon Quest XI's Switch version being completely glossed over when that was the very first game announced for the system way back when. All in all I give this conference a C, 75/100.
