So you're saying that third parties should just ignore the Switch, even when its selling at a record breaking pace worldwide (especially in Japan)?

I hope DQ12 comes to Switch, alongside PS4 and/or PS5. It would be a waste and a shame to ignore an established userbase (in Japan and the rest of the world) that has already connected with DQ with the Builder games, DQXIS, and the first three games of the mainline series that were ported to Switch. Not to mention having the Hero included in Smash Ultimate, the best-selling fighting game of all-time.

Yeah it would be incredibly foolish not to release DQ12 on Switch when the series is Japan-centric in sales and Playstation as a platform is getting less and less relevant there.

Well yeah that's a no brainer. DQXI launched on 3DS so Switch will obviously take the place of 3DS. Probably only reason it launched (way) late on Switch is because development started way before the Switch launched since the game came out just a few months after the Switch launch, and they probably didn't make the Switch port a priority after that because having just launched they knew the Switch user base would be low for a bit.

DQXII will obviously have a same day launch on Switch and the Switch sales should completely dwarf Sony sales of the game.
