It’s so weird that you think there’s a possibility for SMTV to come to PS4 but little to no chance for P5 to come to Switch. Considering the lack of a SMT fan base on PS4 (with the 3DS getting SMTIV, Apocalypse, and Strange Journey), you think the Switch cannot build a fan base for Persona 5 as well?

It's simply because Persona is a 4 year old game, to which both Nintendo and Atlus have already talked about, and to which the only answer Nintendo got was P5S a spin off. If Persona was going to happen it would have happened by now. My speculation is Persona and Sony are tied closely together. 

Meanwhile SMTV has not even released yet. SMT and Persona share a lot of similarities, P5 sold 3.2 million on PS4/3 and SMT has a long history with Playstation. There's plenty of data showing SMTV being a success on PS4 and since it has yet to be released, I think its viable. 

Much older games got ported to the Switch, such as some recent ones like Metro, Witcher 3, Dragon's Dogma, Assassin's Creed 4, Final Fantasy X and XII. 

This argument is as valid as Nintendo and SMT are closely tied together due to Persona being the only SMT series on playstation while everything else in the past 10 years is either on DS, 3DS, or Switch. 

There is plenty of data that not only SMTV would do well on PS4, but Persona on Switch as well since a lot of JRPG fans tend to be Switch we have companies like NIS say that their games tend to sale better on Switch, exclusives like Octopath Traveler, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Xenoblade 2, that all sold incredibly sell.

Why is it so hard for you to accept that Atlus is just a weird company that prefers making exclusives over multiplats? No one is denying that SMTV would do well on PS4, we are all just pointing how weird Atlus as a company is with multiplats.
