From installbase I got some interesting info on an interview with Kondo from Falcom. They recently decided to start bringing their games to the Switch themselves and here's a quote:
Q 製品部門の売上が落ちていて、プレステが振るわないために、スイッチへの移植を始めるとのことだが、なぜやや古い『那由多の軌跡』から始めるのか。なぜ看板タイトルのイースや軌跡シリーズではないのか。どのくらいの販売を見込んでいるのか.
Q: You said that you will start porting to the Switch because the sales of the product division are declining and Sony PlayStation is not performing well. Why are you starting with the slightly old "The Legend of Nayuta"? Why not a billboard title of the Ys or Trails series? How many sales do you expect?
近藤：最初に『那由多の軌跡』を選んだのはライセンス部門との兼ね合い。最新作はライセンスで契約してしまっていて、その後にスイッチ参入を本格的に決めて動いたから。まず動かせるのが『那由多の軌跡』だった
Kondo: The first choice was "The Legend of Nayuta" as a balance with the licensing department. The latest work has a license contract. After that, we decided to move into full-scale entries on the Switch. The first thing that could be moved was "The Legend of Nayuta."
近藤：スイッチ移植は『那由多の軌跡』で終わらせるつもりはなく、後続のタイトルも準備を始めている。目標の販売本数については、具体的な数については営業上の課題もあるのでここでは差し控えたい
Kondo: We don't intend to end Switch porting with "The Legend of Nayuta," and we're starting to prepare for subsequent titles. Regarding the target number of units sold, there are business challenges reporting specific numbers, so I would like to refrain from doing so here.
But this is the most interesting part:
近藤：現時点の原因は、クオリティももちろんあると思うが、振るわないPS市場や
Kondo: "I think the cause [of poor sales for Kuro] is, of course there is quality here, is the dull PlayStation market..."
