I really REALLY doubt it but who knows. I just don't think the Switch can handle it.

Well, I assume that Sony would have advertising rights, and it says that it's coming first to PS4, so if there is a Switch version it'll probably just be mentioned briefly instead of having a huge announcement.

I think it starts with a member rumouring a UE4 japanese game that if it came out would go to the archives, some people are thinking it's FF7 remake, i don't want to jump in conclusions, but reading GAF comments it seems like they forgot From Software, there's a slight chance that from software could be making a souls exclusive to ninty with nintendo publishing it, similar to bayonetta 2. I think the chances for that are bigger then FF7R on switch.

I'd be far more interested in a 3D/HD FFIV or FFVI remake, personally....

1) they said it was first PS4... implying it would be a while before other platforms got it.
2) it looks to demanding for Switch.

I doubt it.

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I'm watching the gameplay clips that have been shown, and to be honest, the graphics *in game* during battles are not as impressive.

They could "cheat" and use MP4 video for "story" sequences taken from the PS4 version and then cut to lower quality models for in-game battles. Just my two cents. That is basically how they used to do things back in the day anyway. I think that would make a port much, much easier.

540p for the portable mode, 720p for TV play.

You're suggesting to pre render the majority of the game @ 720p.... 60fps video? Do you know how much storage space that would require.

It would be back to the Era of N64 where FF7 would take 250 N64 cartridges lol.
