The Switch I get these games coming to, but Xbox One makes little sense without a very sizeable moneyhatt.

FFXV and FFXIII trilogy sells like 5 to 1 in PlayStations favor... JRPG gamers just do not seem to reside on Xbox in the way they do elsewhere.

Microsoft must be paying them for them in order for these to be even remotely viable. Even if so, it is a smart acquisition. MS is trying to break the trending culture of them only catering to a few genres.

This are not brand new games, this are ports, and ports are cheap, they will easily make profit even on Xbox.

Yes but a port of a port of a port has a tendency to shrink in scope. 

 

FX/X2 came to ps3 and psvita> then PS4 and pc > now switch and Xbox.

Double dipping is certainly a thing, some will buy it.... again  just for tweaks. If any are going to have this effect I imagine it will be the portable friendly Switch.  There is virtually nothing the XBOneX can offer in upgrade to such an old game to warrent yet another rebuy. i'm just questioning the potential for it to be of any significance as it's been done like 4 times now.

The again...Skyrim has been repurchased like 3 times over which is also baffling.

The ports are more of a business statement than anything else. The great return of FF to the Nintendo platform, which I always was what was being hintted by Cloud being in Smash. Xbox proving it can have a Japanese games following and isn't just dude bro culture anymore.
