Uhuuu..this lends futher credence to that leak. According to that Capcom is in full on panic mode because Switch is actually selling well, but they sold MH Worlds exclusivity/all platforms but Switch to Sony. Part of that deal is supposedly that Nintendo still recieves handheld MHs but doesn't help with localization anymore.

Is there any evidence that such a deal took place? I've honestly never heard of a semi-exclusivity deal that only forbids bringing the game to one specific platform, that would be pretty darn shady by both Capcom and Sony. 

Either way, I just don't understand Capcom's thinking; I'm not sure a platform has ever been more tailor-made and perfect for Monster Hunter than the Switch, and it would be a blockbuster success in Japan (and probably do very well in the West as Switch software sales have been very strong so far). Capcom and Nintendo had a partnership that was an enormous success, but instead of doing just the stupid thing in switching their exclusivity to another platform, now they specifically target their huge fanbase that developed on Nintendo platforms by excluding only them from future titles?

Whether or not there was a deal, Capcom can go fuck themselves. Seriously, I hope this blows up in their face.
