Before the naysayers get out there pitchfork and torches lemme tell ya Warframe came on there some y’all underestimate what the switch can do I have seen panic button perform miracles mr. Braden if your reading this contact A guy named Kirk Scott of the Dev Relations team. Look if your that concerned look at some other games panic button did with the platform holders hekp

Your talking about the Nintendo Switch? Maybe you should look into the Specs. nintendo switch
I'll echo Lestat and say that the specs would make a Switch version of ED very difficult to accomplish, with little opportunity to expand the player base.
I think you're more likely to see the Switch's successor playing ED, which I'm sure will be a fuller experience by then...you know...4-5 years from now.
That said, if FDEV wants to get on Switch and allow linked accounts so players can jump in, I'm more than happy to pay $60 for the latest version of the game. I also love the idea of what crazy Nintendo Labo stuff could be made to turn Joy-Cons into a flight stick and thruster.

Hay dooley422 I think we have to use realistic expectations not look at something from a fantasy. We can look at the new build for Elite dangerous Requires 21 GB of space. The Switch has 32 GB. That leaves 11 GB left for other stuff. Also, Games need a cache to run a game like a temporary storage.
There is no NMS-port to the Switch either, a different game with different requirements sure, but both require a lot of computational power for the surface generation alone. Few will be interested in a version that does not include Horizons. Even fewer will be interested in a version that works but looks really really bad.
It requires a reliable network connection as well, so the main benefit of the Switch, the mobility it provides (which restricts the processing power and the quality too) would be ignored.
