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.

I'm pretty sure they haven't skipped the Switch. Japanese devs can be stubborn & rigid in behavior. They're not the kind to add a Switch version mid-way through production and delay overall development, so I'm sure they're just porting it late as has been the case for all other big 3rd party titles. And although some of these games don't look demanding, working on powerful hardware means they can be lazy with optimisation, something which makes Switch ports more time consuming. I remember Soul Hacker 2 barely being able to hit 30fps on Xbox One for example, so getting it work on a Switch will be a big task even though it doesn't look impressive
