Yuji Horii is great at revealing game releases before publishers are ready. I remember when he announced DQ VII and VIII 3DS were coming West long before SE ever made an official announcement. Apparently SE was not happy with him over that one and they were probably mad again when Horii just casually dropped they were looking at an NX version long before we even knew that the NX was the Switch.
As for what version will get ported, after seeing the Digital Foundry CPU and GPU breakdown in another thread, I'm pretty much convinced they will just rework the 3DS version instead of going through the pains of downporting the PS4 version. I know people are trying to say the PS4 version of DQ XI that is still potentially most of a year from release isn't visually impressive (the DQ XI trailer just said "2017" without any specifics), but could anybody legitimately see that running even at 720p on a gimped Wii U? Because so far it's sounding like "gimped Wii U" will define the portable Switch mode.
Like I said in another thread, a port much like what SE did to bring KH: 3D to the PS4 seems very likely in this scenario.
