I never said any of that. I said Square is shooting themselves in the foot by neglecting a major market. For the record, I don't care about FF XV not coming to Switch, it's that he doesn't even want to think about future projects for the Switch that comes off as incredibly stupid to me. The next mainline FF on Switch + PS4 would sell a lot more than a FF on PS4/X1.

A lot of their games take forever to make and their sales aren't that great to justify such long development cycles or big budgets. Take a look at how good Level-5 is doing. They understand that the market has shifted to mobile and handheld. 

We`re going to have an idea how it will work now with DQ XI being on both PS4, Switch and 3DS. And as a Final Fantasy fans, I think it`s a bad idea to do so. FF fans do care about cutting edge visuals, if they think Switch somehow level down what that could have been whitout this version is a shoot on the foot. Look what happend with FF XIII and X360, people complaining that the game was butchered for the 360 were everywhere.

And as I said before in another thread, the best approach for third party on Switch is to make custom experiences for it like they do with 3DS and did with Wii. It`s the best way to please the consumer and to respect the games by no butching them to fit Switch limitations.

DQ XI looks much better than FF XV to me. 

I'm honestly surprised there are more than a million people wanting to buy a game with a Korean boyband in it lol. 

And I really doubt FF fans are such big graphic whores that they would just abandon playing a franchise they supposedly love just because it will come out on the Switch as well. And the game would be made for the Switch first and upgraded for the PS4. At least that would be the sensible thing to do. 

Anyway, it will be interesting to see how Xenoblade Chronicles 2 compares to FF XV in terms of overworld and critical reception.
