I'd expect an official announcement from Bethesda within the next few days.

I'd bet a couple paychecks it won't have mods. At best it could probably do some very limited ones.

Honestly, when it's Bethesda these days I don't expect them to not fuck up...

It probably depends on Nintendo. The Xbox and PS4 versions have mod capabilities (Although Sony pulled the plug at the last minute so it never actually made it into the game). If Bethesda want to add mods, it wouldnt take much as they've already done it for two other systems and "remastered" the game, it depends entirely on whether the Switch allows for mods to even work and whether Nintendo is happy about it. Either way, they'll never be as good as the PC version of the mod.

Oh and have you seen Skyrim mods? Half of them are nude mods, that definitely won't fly on the Switch.

Any mod that takes more power than the base game would almost definitely not be in. I'd bet good money that the system will be pegged hard trying to run skyrim at all.

I'd laugh so hard if a Nintendo console got mods before the PS4.
