There is a huge amount of doubt until Japanese gamers show that they are willing to buy full price retail Switch games from publishers other than Nintendo.
20k for God Eater 3 is pathetic even for it being a late port. YW4 sales were miserable. Other than Minecraft which sells on pretty much everything there has yet to be any major standout third party title on the Switch, so why would third party publishers want to focus on the Switch if the audience isn't buying their games in even slightly impressive quantities?

Don't forget Dragon Ball FighterZ, Xenoverse 2, My Hero One's Justice. Also Attack on Titan games have held their own.
God Eater 3 iirc was already a drop vs previous entries in sales before, so waiting an arbitrary number of months to drop it on Switch was going to result in a substantially lower performance than could have been. Bandai needs to stop fishing for double dippers is the real issue here.
