Personally I think we should wait till:

A) Switch 2 specs are confirmed
B) Switch 2 price is announced
C) See how well the Switch 2 does

Feels like people are getting ahead of themselves.

But back to the Final Fantasy Discussion... ps5 has what 55 million potential FF consumers? By going to xbox, Nintendo and PC, Square will increase their potential base by what? I'm guessing but 500%? Maybe more?

By that logic FF7 Remake should have sold millions on PC, it only sold about 1 million copies on PC. 

Their problem is their fan base is aging, they need to invest in platforms like the Switch 2 and start rebuilding their fanbase up from the grassroots by getting younger people not an average user base that looks like this guy today:

This is going to take them a while too, it's not going to happen overnight where they magically increase sales by 300%. It's an age and demographic problem they have brought onto themselves by sticking only to Sony home consoles, home consoles (non-Nintendo ones anyway) in general are an aging demographic. Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter are big franchises in Japan, Final Fantasy used to be as big, only one of those three chose to be locked into Playstation exclusives and guess which one has a declining fanbase.
