NIS went PS2 to PS3 straight, even when the PS3 was doing poorly, Disgaea 3 released as a PS3 exclusive in 2007 (EDIT: it was actually January 2008), its worst year, not really the case with the PS4, so going PS3 to PS4 straight does makes sense if that worked out, even more as Nintendo has been declining on both fronts since they tried it.
Nintendo both most succesful home console and handheld apparently weren't viable, you can understand why they skipped the Wii U and 3DS pretty easily...
Now they are really in need of money, started porting to PC and also Switch, have in mind NIS always release their games on handhelds with extra content, which is not happening here, they are porting the game and adding the release content and not making anything new, theirs Disgaea 1, 2, 3 and 4 ports to PSP and PSV all have their own new subtitles and unique additions, they are not just game + dlc bundle, so it's pretty clear this wasn't planned like those versions always were, which support their first statement, but they are doing it out of need.

I can understand why they skipped the 3DS, because NIS is a poorly run company. Pretty much everything they made failed to turn into something sustainable. Of course support for Switch is born out of desperation. If they still had a choice, they wouldn't support a Nintendo system. The way they put games on Nintendo will lead to the same results as the last time they tried. The games aren't good enough and they won't be priced competitively.

i think thats a bit harsh, its known that 3DS doesnt support alot of the game engines that smaller studios use, it didnt even have Unity supoort for most of its life.
Switch having Unity & Unreal 4 support seems to be helping alot of smaller Japanese & indie support Nintendo's portable offerings.
