Agree, where is Nier Automata and Persona 5 on Switch?

You need to stop spreading this baseless lie. And the irony is it was Nintendo that kept Monster Hunter off Playstation Vita, effectively killing it in Japan.

The same place where Bayonetta 3 and Shin Megami Tensei V are on PS4 and Xbox One.

After Sony paid to keep mh world off of the switch I really don't give a damn. If the other companies are going to play dirty so should nintendo

Because there's a 100m potential market of which 1m bought Bayonetta 1.

If I remember correctly, the general consensus agrees that Nintendo had an exclusivity deal with Capcom on Monster Hunter, which makes sense because the series skipped the Vita and PS3 in favor of 3DS and Wii. Why else wouldn't they be on Sony's platforms for several years when third party games generally perform much better on them? I don't remember if this was confirmed or just a logical speculation.

Yes.. Sony did play a big part in killing the Vita, which does actually correlate to them failing to secure exclusives and bringing Monster Hunter to their platforms. So your statement and mine aren't contradictory. MH could have had a ripple effect, increasing Vita's support and thus sales to a potential 40m+ worldwide. So if we assume Nintendo paid, then they are also indirectly responsible for killing the Vita. Sympathy has no place in business... if Nintendo senses a potential threat, they'll do all the can to eliminate it. Monster Hunter did wonders to PSP..

I can say with absolute confidence that mainline Monster Hunter will be out for Switch in no time. It's just silly to jump into conclusions so soon. As everybody knows, MHW has been in development for over 4 years now, that's long before Switch's announcement. If Capcom wants to get it running on the Switch in an acceptable form, they will have to take their time and optimize it for the weaker platform. By announcing the Switch version too early, they'd be risking the sales of the PS4 version. None of that necessitates Sony's involvement. I won't deny the possibility that they might be involved, but there is so little evidence to back such claims at this point. We should be glad that Capcom upped their production values due to PS4's success instead of whining about it 24/7. All PS4 did is speed up the transition of the series.

And that makes it accurate when the leaker is a Nintendo fanboy who claimed it's not a mainline iteration? Who didn't mention development time? Who said it's an excessively westernized/casualized spin off? Who also said Monster Hunter 5 is in development for Switch? Do you believe all of that nonsense? If you do... then why on earth are you upset? Have your smile back! MH5 is coming to the Switch :D much better than the trash PS4/PC/X1 owners are getting!

So I’m guessing that, basing off this premise, if Sony were to secure an exclusive that would be nice to play on the Switch, you would say “get a PS4 then”? Then I’m more than glad games like Octopath Traveler, Bayo 3, NMH (sorta?), and SMT V are exclusive to Switch. Hell, I’m glad the 3DS was able to get games like MH, Yokai Watch, SMT, Etrian Odyssey, Ace Attorney, and Professor Layton as exclusives. :P You’re not gonna get everything on one console. That has been that way since the console wars of the 90s. Would it be nice to have everything in one console? Sure. But that isn’t possible since we have three competing first party companies making hardware and dealing with third parties.

It is, Travis Strikes Back is a full NMH game
