If you mean Ys VIII, I think not, not at all (it's only on PC and PS4, by the way). It has actually more things against it than those you mention.

It's an old game that releases at full price-60 dollars, despite of the PS4 having a much better presentation, running at rock solid 60FPS, proper for a fast action paced title like Ys VIII; whereas apparently the Switch will run at 30 with several dips (odd). Beyond that, there's also been a controversy regarding the quality of the port. Reviewers have noticed that the translation has plenty of errors, Japanese text mixed in between and overall bad and odd grammar (sorry if mine sucks as well :3). Publisher NIS have already stated they will be releasing a day 1 patch that will solve some of the text issues and other ones (frame rate is not mentioned). However, bad publicity is still bad. Furthermore, the Switch version also lacks Japanese dub.

To all this, add that many, many people don't like NIS's practices, they think the publisher is terrible because how they handle some of their releases.

Regardless, I have it preordered for the Switch, looks really good and only had to spend around 40 dollars.



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.
