Am I the only one baffled that this is the first serious effort from Japanese third parties yet? And no word yet from Capcom, Square Enix (sure, Octopath Traveler is amazing, but not a high budget / high profile game), Konami, Bandai Namco, etc.

From Wii U To Switch.... They probably still have their doubts

I can understand their point, for sure, after the WiiU disaster. But, they have to also grow some balls and for once help Nintendo actually build a base. Look at Capcom and SE on PS4 in Japan for example. 

The system pretty much was another failure there, and game after game (esp from SE), turned it around. MHW was the tipping point.

However, Nintendo is always on their own. If they manage to push enough hardware, third parties support their platforms, if even. And with small to medium budget titles.
