??? Japanese support has been really good on Switch. With the exception of the latest AAA games, most Japanese developers and publishers basically gave everything they had to Switch. Sega, Square Enix, Marvelous, NIS, Koei Tecmo, Bandai Namco, and Konami have all given the Switch plenty of excellent games, some of the best games on the system mind you.
I guess you can say Capcom would be the weakest given their focus on AAA console development, but even then, they brought Monster Hunter and much of their backlog over.
The thing to remember though, is that most Japanese devs support the Switch like it's a new Nintendo handheld, not a main home console like PlayStation or Xbox. So most games they bring to it are going to be either Switch exclusives, older games, or AA multiplatform titles created with the Switch in mind from the start. I imagine Switch 2 won't be much different in that regard.
