Pretty tough to have legs when it has 80-100% sell-through in its opening week, but I fully agree they should not have skipped the Switch. Having played the game, there's nothing that the Switch would have any issues with.

That explains it.

And yeah I haven't played it myself but it is weird that Japanese devs still leave out the country's dominant platform with these kind of releases. They do tend to come later, like Demon Slayer and the Dragon Ball games, but it still seems a poor strategy.

It’s a well known strategy to have consumers potentially double dip after getting the PS4/5 version. I’m just not sure if it works out the way they believe it does. Like Demon Slayers for example. Probably could’ve done better with all platforms at the same launch date (instead of releasing the switch version later when whatever hype of the game already died out months after the movie came out) while releasing alongside the hype of the movie. I don’t remember if the switch version of Demon Slayer even charted in the NPD charts for Nintendo games when launched.
