I think they'll either not talk about the Switch version at all, or they will talk about it a lot. No inbetween. Either they commit to (for now) selling the 3DS and PS4 versions (obviously the PS4 version won't be featured in the direct) for now, and push the Switch version later, or they give the Switch version a more equal footing immediately, sacrificing some sales on the 3DS and PS4, in the hope of making it back with the Switch version later.

I think Dragon Quest is big enought that people might double-dip. 3DS owners have the incentive to buy the game again on Switch because of the better visuals, and PS4 owners have the incentive to buy the game again on Switch because of the portability. So maybe it won't affect their sales too much, since people can justify buying both versions. 

Absolutely, just imo you are more likely to get more double dippers if you push solely for the PS4 and 3DS versions until they have been released, then start pushing the Switch version later. That way, people won't be as "aware" of the double dipping before they've even bought the game at all.
