There is no such thing as an audience dedicated to a console?Really?How long have you been on forums?

Outside of that blatant mistake, you are wrong about other things.First that when MH was on consoles(especially PS consoles), it never sold as good as the 3DS titles.So no "audience moved from sony to nintendo, if there was none to begin with.And while yes, the PSP versions did sell very well(at least portable 3rd did), it did so well because why?Because it was a portable.And why is that?Because the japanese audience prefers that kind of product.And please, citing the japanese forums as an argument, not to mention the part that I should be questioning if you saw that for yourself(and if you speak japanese by an extent), or just saw a screenshot of a single japanese forum that were just more pessimistic about it.But anyways...

Other problem is that you are thinking that the 3DS will canabilize the Switch sales.No it wont.At least not wont be that significant.The 3DS version and the PS4/Switch version will be very distinct.And the argument that DQ Heroes already brought the audience to the PS4 is nonsense,simply because they are spin-offs.I mean, just compare these spin-off sales compared to mainline ones, or even the remakes.Should give you a good idea that they didnt convince that many people to jump in.Not to mention that the Switch will also have the games(and they come together, no less).

So the idea that the game wont push consoles for a long while(and by that extent, I think you are implying that it will push PS4 consoles) is simply ridiculous.Im not saying the game wont sell well on the PS4, Im just saying that it has the chance to sell better than it.I mean, there is a reason this game was one of the first to be announced for the Switch....

Hyrule Warriors Legends is ass on the 3ds. So why would Fire Emblem Warriors be bought on the 3ds over switch? 

Kind of out of the subject, but I think that is simple:Install base.And this is a second party game, being developed by Koei.Probably Koei wanted an assurance that their game sold a decent number of copies, and thus they made the 3DS version.But its all especulation.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
