uh huh...because PS4 certainly had no ports of older in its first two years (you know, except for Uncharted collection, God of War 3, GTA V, Tearaway, The Last of US, Gravity Rush, etc) and Switch has not had any news games at all in its first two years (you know except for ARMS, Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Super Mario Odyssey, Kirby Star Allies, Pokemon Let's Go, Octopath Traveller, etc).
Honestly, I find it interesting that Switch becomes the "console of ported old game" when a good number of other systems have and continue to receive ports alongside new games, particularly in the early stages of their life. This continued release of older ports on all systems is reinforced by the fact that consumers seem to be responding positively to them. If this game comes to Switch it is also likely to come to PS4 as well (unless Nintendo paid for it). Making ports of older games a part of the library is hardly a Nintendo-exclsuive thing.
EDIT: Removed double listing of Octopath Traveller, and apparently Soul Sacrifice Delta never came to PS4 and I removed Heavy Rain was ported in 2016 (outside of the two year window).

Wow Did I hit a nerve with that post?!

Well obviously otherwise I would not have replied :) Its just I don't see how Switch is the only system with old ports, considering this gen overall (especially at the beginning of the gen; but also, generally at the initial phases of a lot of gens) has been quite port heavy. Also judging by the sales of the Tales series on Playstation, I don't see why Bandai Namco would limit a hypothetical port to just the Switch (again unless Nintendo paid them off).
