They had full support with the PS4 and still declined what makes you think PS5 will be any different especially with how Sony are now approaching the region?

They are Indeed. As i Said look at square and their exclusivities and that's not going to change, or it might take some Time to change to nintendo's side. Anyways i dont see any third party dropping Sony anytime soon even if they had to change strategies and aiming for the west only.

Square aren't the best example to use for Japanese devs as outside of DQ which is controlled by Horii anyway they've declined in Japan heavily this is highlighted in their flagship franchise FF the top 3 selling RPGs of the gen are Pokemon, DQ and Ringfit the first two aren't a surprise but the third is going to outsell both FFXV and VIIR combined, many smaller developers can't afford that because they don't have the western sales of SE to offset the decline to be able to survive this why many of them have found that they have to have Switch versions this isn't going to take time it's already happening now.

Switch could very possibly outsell PS4 and PS5 lt combined in fact if it hits 30m in the region it's possible you could add PS3 to that just take that in for a minute, right now Switch is only 2m off from outselling PS3 and PS4 combined many devs who don't have big western sales don't really have much of a choice.
