Great, that is gonna help ps4 even more.

Actually this way benefits almost every1 in a way, especially Squareenix the most. Having Switch versiin later especially lets say holiday is a huge win.

 

Sony will not have to split the game up further down will be its benefit and more sales with a boost to HW.

 

Nintendo loses out early but since its already on 3ds its still going to be big for them but with switch version most likely being a ps4 port, after splat2 releases switch userbase will be alot bigger and will have a lot of potential double dippers from both 3ds and ps4 buyers (as well as a few new ones). In the long run nintendo switches sku could do better than it being released simultaneously.

 

Like this imo If it were releasd same time (lifetime estimates)

3DS 2.2mil

PS4 900k

Switch 400k

Total 3.5mil

 

But with how its set up now it could be in comparison

 

3DS 2.5mil

PS4 1.2mil

Then double dippers/etc

Switch 500k

Total 4.2mil

 

Basically by seperating Square wins as double dippers will easily buy this game on the switch.
