Great fallacy :) If A is doing bad, then following B's advice would have been good XD

For the Wii U, Nintendo should have made porn games. What's the problem, the Wii U sold bad, so they should have followed my advice, right?

In this case, it would probably be of benefit to Atlus to expand the audience of their games to at least the Switch, which has a stronger presence in Japan than Sony plus a pretty good influence in the US.

Your second example is a pointless strawman.

YES! A Switch port would be a good idea, but the Switch was released one year after Persona 5 and nobody was sure about the success of the console. That's why the game isn't on the Switch but Scramble is PS4+Switch.

Atlus always aimed at the biggest audience, when the PS3/XBox 360 were tied, they released their games on both platforms. The handheld market (really big in Japan) was also their main target. But back to Persona 5, making it a PS4 exclusve made sense in 2016, and Atlus could have an unofficial agreement with Sony to keep it exclusive (at least for now) for all we know.

My second example was an analogy: saying "they failed so my advice was better" is a fallacy.
