I disagree. If Platinum Games's official Twitter started saying stuff like Kamiya says, it would receive a lot more negative press than it does and they'd be portrayed as a bad company. I don't like what Kamiya says myself, but what he says on his personal Twitter account shouldn't reflect on the company he works for. I also disagree when someone is fired from a job for saying something unrelated to their work on their personal social media, but it's up to the company if they want that individual associated with their brand.

And you say it's only the Ninty userbase, but there have been some truly reprehensible comments directed toward Kamiya over Bayonetta 2 and now 3 not coming to PS4. The fact is there's people like that in every subsection of gaming, and really how many people are really locked to one system? I have a PS4 and Switch myself.

Yeah, I knew from the start that you would disagree, but it still doesn't change that he is the same person who has and does belong to a company/project. Just like someone running for a state can have their own personal account and still spew crap.

Yeah, others have mentioned it before, but now Ninty is doing it, so does it make it better for the other side to now rag on a dev, but not for the others?. Can I just note that just because one side does it doesn't make it alright for the other, but at the same time, we are all not made, nor represented as being equals to begin with.

There are people on Steam that make threads asking/demanding for Switch ports as well, to add to that. 

It's fine if you disagree. My whole point isn't that it's okay for one side to do it or for the others to do. It's that if anyone does agree, that's bad for the business for that dev. There are people who won't buy Kamiya's games because of how he behaves, and I fully understand their stance. I've seen enough people who didn't like how this dev handled it to show a similar thing can easily happen here. Everyone has their own limit on this sort of thing, and for some it's a lot less lenient than yours might be.
