Wherever the sales go, I hope this will send a message to other Japanese developers that the time for "testing" is over. Original, non-ported exclusive AA third party games like Octopath Traveler can succeed on the Switch. Switch owners should not have to have more than two years of just ports from Japanese third parties. Atlus has Shin Megami Tensei V in the works, Grasshopper has Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes, Bandai Namco has Yokai Watch 4 and is potentially helping with Metroid Prime 4, and Platinum Games has Bayonetta 3. Heck, even though it was a launch title, Konami was able to find success with Super Bomberman R. Capcom stated that they're pleased with the Mega Man and Street Fighter collections on Switch, so will they start development on more new (non-ported) titles besides the next Ace Attorney?
Or it could lead to nothing much more than the unfortunate status quo...just ports from Capcom besides Ace Attorney, Konami being Konami, Atlus not providing more than SMTV (after releasing 10+ games on 3DS), etc. :(
