There's no reason to be married to a particular brand. Japanese style games have been struggling for a while to find success on home consoles. A lot of people assume it's because portables fit the Japanese lifestyle and preferences better, but I think it's also because in large part western developers have ignored handhelds as a market, and Japanese developers chose to focus their efforts there, where they would face less competition and need smaller budgets.

If those are the kinds of games you're after, then Switch is definitely your best bet, particularly since they have the biggest Japanese developer's exclusive support. It seems to be that many Japanese developers are porting games to the Switch, and PC will catch most basically anything that they miss. If you own a gaming quality PC, then the only real reason to own a PS5 is their exclusives, and possibly for online play with other PS5 owners. If you don't care about that, then makes sense to drop them.
