- Square have Bravely Default 2 as the biggest game on the Switch in 2020 for them and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
- Level 5 will launch Yo-kai Academy Y & Megaton Musashi not exactly sure what to expect but a delay won't surprise me
- Sega don't think they have a game scheduled that could sell over 100K... maybe Bayonetta 3 if they are publishing it
- Capcom doesn't have anything
- Marvelous has a Rune Factory 5 & Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin
- Koei Tecmo has Atelier Ryza 2 & Fairy Tail
Overall as I mentioned previously Koei Tecmo, Level 5, Sega support continues to be lackluster, Atlus is making a transition this year pretty clearly. While the biggest omission is Capcom who don't seem interested in supporting the Switch. I think we can expect a lot more support from Level 5 but they need to find a hit again with Yo-kai's major decline. In the case of Koei Tecmo some of their lead developers seem to have a vendetta against Nintendo, so until they stop being profitable expect little change. Sega is continuing to see a decline to Yakuza but hasn't changed it's approaching at all and is in a similar state to Koei. Capcom is really the only company justified with its policy because of their closer ties with Sony and Monster Hunter World Wide success, but they are still missing a huge opportunity by not releasing a new Monster Hunter to the Switch and releasing more AA games.
At the risk of angering Jim Sterling, Konami higher-ups are doing far better compared to the likes of Koei, Level 5, Sega and Capcom. With eBaseball's launch, the only thing still baffling about their decision making is that we don't see eFootball isn't on the system, while EA continues to eat away at the domestic market with FIFA with their limited support of the Switch. Now with Captain Tsubasa launching, it's possible that even Bandai chips away if the game catches on.
Talking about Bandai, they continue to be the best at capitalizing on the Switch. Taiko and Fishing Spirits will surpass 500K this year. So far they've released 5 games in 2020, bringing their total physical titles on the system to 36. Not all of these games did that much sales but they bring revenue.
Marvelous has a decent chance to also increase their market share depending on when Rune Factory 5 launches and how well Sakuna does. Imagineer is interesting in how they built on their Fitness success.
There is also a few mid-sized Japanese Developers yet to start supporting Switch in any meaningful way.
