Meanwhile in reality:

Nearly all publishers are making great money, some like Capcom and KT are making more money that they ever have lol

Doesn't work like that. They are different teams and deals. 

This is not true at all. PS4 had to compete with WiiU and 3DS. 3DS was far stronger than the SW and had far more exclusives (MH,DQ,YW) which the SW does not. 

PS4's sales cycle is pretty much in line with PS3's. PS5 will get more Japanese support than the SW, just like how PS4 got more Japanese support than the SW, because Playstation is the dominant platform for global software sales. 

Koei Tecmo can probably thank Nintendo Switch for some of its contributions to their recent success.

Thanks to games like:

Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3

Alteiler Ryza

Fire Emblem Three Houses

Attack on Titan 2

And Fairy Tail and Warriors Orochi 4 Ultimate


We’ll just have to see how the upcoming years pan out for PS5 in Japan.

whether you care or not, the Switch is the dominant console in Japan and only the corona virus has affected sales as production of all consoles (even possibly the upcoming consoles) have slowed down.

Most of the games you listed are multiplatform. Games like Atelier, did way better on PS4 than SW. 

You're also missing KT's biggest hit in its entire history: Nioh.
