It is an optional featue of the switch/switch 2. There's a virtual boy headset you can buy! (Ships in february)

But that's a thing people have to put on their faces, which, as we have seen, most people really don't like. It also costs extra money, unlike a "3D mode", which would just be enabled in the game menu.

    I'm pretty sure adding headset-less 3d display hardware to the switch would have also cost extra money, but everybody would have had to pay for it.

      Yes but game developers can't rely on optional add-ons because most people won't have them. So there is little reason for the developers to support them. That's why such optional add-ons were rarely successful in the past.
