By the way, I don't think many people believe that the Gust kind of games will sell more on switch than PS4. But I do think that Switch might become a decent home for those (like I don't know : 2/3PS4, 1/3 Switch or 50/50).

I know they're different ecosystems, but eventually Vita games were going 1-to-1 with PS4 versions in sales; and I have to at least believe that Koei-Tecmo will want Switch to step into those shoes. The console certainly has the potential to fill that gap:

04./00. [PS4] Yoru no Nai Kuni # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.10.01} (¥7.344) - 35.907 / NEW 
05./00. [PSV] Yoru no Nai Kuni # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.10.01} (¥6.264) - 32.904 / NEW 
14./00. [PS3] Yoru no Nai Kuni # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.10.01} (¥7.344) - 10.416 / NEW 

02./00. [PS4] Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.11.19} (¥7.344) - 30.759 / NEW 
03./00. [PSV] Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.11.19} (¥6.264) - 25.805 / NEW 
13./00. [PS3] Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.11.19} (¥7.344) - 11.542 / NEW 

(Eventually the Vita versions sold slightly more than PS4 in Japan):

754./137. [PSV] Nights of Azure # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.10.01} (¥5.800) - 2.184 / 51.353 (-96%) (32.904 <84,75%>) 
772./140. [PS4] Nights of Azure # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.10.01} (¥6.800) - 2.041 / 50.188 (-96%) (35.907 <88,23%>) 

365./150. [PSV] Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.11.19} (¥5.800) - 9.858 / 55.426 (-78%) (25.805 <77,10%>) 
392./145. [PS4] Atelier Sophie: The Alchemist of the Mysterious Book # (Koei Tecmo) {2015.11.19} (¥6.800) - 8.545 / 55.438 (-82%) (30.759 <77,52%>) 

Of course, Switch will have higher western sales to fall back on like I mentioned previously which should be a helpful hand, but still. 

I agree, 50/50 PS4/Switch seems like a reasonnable goal in the long run. For now though, Vita is still a thing in Japan with decent userbase, I guess a 50/25/25 PS4/Vita/Switch would be decent for the time being.

Let's hope the next Atelier sales are good enough for us to have a better idea on the matter. When does it release ? I guess we can expect 80-100k LT overall ?
