True but I think most people would be aware of the situation as the main game itself was a title designed ground up for other hardware long before we knew what Switch was unlike DQXI which Horii controls and decided a Switch version was going to happen early on in development, SE clearly want to establish a presence on the platform especially after OT's success.

Given the other games they could announce - the Kingdom Hearts HD collections specifically - this seems like a rather tone-deaf decision.   Especially when you consider they have yet to show a screenshot of the actual big release they say they have coming, DQXI.  Context won't matter, this will be received by the general audience about as well as a custard pie to the face.  So probably best the announcement just kinda dropped in the background with no fanfare.

Yeah, I would have been significantly more annoyed if I had found out about this on the direct instead of as a late night, almost throwaway announcement.  So at least there's one positive about the direct being delayed.
