I'd -gladly- write games (and software) for the switch if it was a more accessible platform to develop for.

Developing software for Nintendos previous platforms was difficult for anyone who didnt have 'connections' in the industry.

Register at developer.nintendo.com, download the free tools, and off you go. Switch development is much more straight forward than previous Nintendo consoles. You'll need a dev console eventually which will cost a bit, but you can get quite far before spending anything.

I believe the GP meant developers within Nintendo, e.g. making first party software.

Yeah, well I'd gladly play basketball for the New York Knicks if they'd just make the hoops more accessible to people my height.
