While hate is a strong word, you have to understand that companies are run by humans. We make mistakes, have bad judgement, underestimate numbers and other companies, even hold grudges. 

I certainly think SE doesn't hate Nintendo, or has anything against them. But they surely show a lack of confidence, at least in the early stages of Switch's lifecycle. That is also true for most 3rd parties. 

You know shit has hit the fan when the fiercest 3rd party Nintendo supporter is Bethesda, lol.

I think fan perception and reality just don't jive here.   Square Enix has actually been an enthusiastic supporter of Switch - since Day one.  In fact, they are one of the most prominent developers/publishers among the major companies thus far:

-Dragon Quest X (Japan only)

-Dragon Quest XI (Upcoming)

- Dragon Quest Builders

- Dragon Quest Builders 2

- Dragon Quest Heroes I & II (Japan only)

- Fear Effect Reinvented (as publisher)

- Fear Effect Sedna (as publisher)

- Goetia (as publisher)

- I am Setsuna

- Lost Sphear 

-Octopath Traveller (upcoming)

- Romancing SaGa 2

- SaGa: Scarlet Grace (Japan only)

- Seiken Densetsu Collection (Japan only)

- Spelunker Party! (as publisher)

- TWEWY: Final Remix (upcoming)

One thing I noticed about the Nintendo community is only certain IP's matter. SE could have 30 games on Switch, but if they aren't recognizable, then they dont count. The worst of the 3 with that shit.
