It's already doubtful that the PS4 version will run  higher than 30 fps, so the Switch version would be like 15 fps even with worse resolution. We would get a FF15 on Switch a lot earlier than FF7R, and remember that they said they're not even thinking about it because they don't think FF15 can run on this console. 

 

Anyway, they seem to have at least a marketing deal with Sony, so we shouldn't see the other versions before the release of the PS4 version. Fake "rumor" based on the port begging made everywhere when we didn't see "PS4 exclusive" at the end of the first trailer. Would be already more plausible if it said "PC version". 

FFXV would be harder to port. It doesn't run on Unreal Engine 4. Unreal Engine 4 runs very well on the Switch. 

The PS4 version from the snippet they showed ran at least at 30 fps from what I saw. 

This isn't exclusive to PS4, that much is clear. IMO this would sell more on Switch than on XBox or PC too, so there's obvious financial motivation to want to do it. 

My guess is this is already a done deal and has been for a long time. Square-Enix announced DQXI for Switch/NX way back when and that's an Unreal Engine 4 game too, they probably spoke about this game with Nintendo too. They agreed to some kind of deal, that's why Cloud in Smash Bros. + Amiibo was done. This is also why Sony was not able to say this is exclusive. They just have a (probably small) window of exclusivity on it, but they already had a deal with Nintendo too, so Sony could not claim exclusivity. 

Lines up with a lot of stuff too IMO, like why the hell is Cloud just randomly in Smash Brothers all of the sudden with not just one but two Amiibos. 

I agree with you soundwave, there are two  cloud amiibo's coming, so two amiibos just for smash brothers? i don't think so.
