Don't overestimate the effect that MHW had. Don't get me wrong, it was a great success for Capcom, and they should never go back to being Nintendo-only or handheld-only, but for every MHW there were a SFV and Capcom vs Marvel disaster. Meanwhile, on Nintendo platforms, they always had great success (MH on handhelds) or mild, profitable successes like RE on Switch, Phoenix Wright games, etc. Basically Nintendo is very risk averse for them, and they would be stupid to turn their backs on them, which is exactly what they are doing. |
Let's not act as if the likes of street fighter v or marvel vs capcom cancel out monster Hunter world. Capcom recently announced profits for the company are at an all time high. They've never been in such a good position financially as they are now.
Also this post is well worth a read for all those pretending they know capcom could easily port this to switch. If you want easy ports, ask Nintendo to make hardware at least on par to the competition.
