Bethesda: Elder Scrolls Online not coming

GameSpot recently managed to chat with Elder Scrolls Online game director Matt Firor and asked about the possibility of the game coming to the Nintendo Switch.

Mr. Firor says that they would love to put the game on the system but it is simply too big for the Nintendo Switch system. 

Direct quote from Gamespot

We have thought about Switch but ESO is an enormous game, and it just will not work,” Firor said. “I would love for it to because I love Switch. It is one of the largest games ever made, and it just will not fit on Switch.

Well too big …. I really wonder what kind of size we are dealing with because we have seen for instance Breath of the Wild which is by no way small and that was only a 13GB game. Personally I think the sheer filesize is not an issue to take into account but more the vast open world where they would probably have to remap a whole lot of elements for it to work on Nintendo Switch.
