Given that multiple MH games sold in the 3-4 million range (physical only) on 3DS, and that Switch generally sells software much better than 3DS, I'd say there's room for a proper Switch MH to pull in huge numbers. Perhaps not quite as much as World, but enough to be an immensely profitable companion to the World series.

The franchise has never been bigger, and the thirst for a real MH on Switch (not just an old 3DS port a la Generations Ultimate) is intense. Capcom would be crazy not to capitalize on that.

Unfortunately we've seen many 3rd prties do that time and time again.

Sadly true, third parties often make bad calls, the lack of a proper MH on Switch being just one example. Capcom's handling of the Switch in general has been astoundingly poor, they're really leaving a lot of money on the table by not bringing any new/current gen games to it. It's selling as fast as the PS4 globally and has already passed it in Japan, yet the treat it as if it were the Wii U.
