I know Switch 2 is inferior to even Series S in most ways, but I think FF16 could get a Switch 2 port. I know the game fell below expectations for sales, but I think it could sell better on Switch 2 than Xbox which they already ported it to. 

FF17 might be day and date on consoles and PC. But if it's a PS6 game with no PS5 version, they would really have their work cut out for them to port it to Switch 2. Unless new numbered FF games go on a very long hiatus, I don't think Switch 3 or whatever will be out by time FF17 launches. 

Yeah I do expect we will see FF16 ported to Switch 2 eventually, though Square have said they are prioritizing FF7 Remake/Rebirth first. It would need a lot of work though as it wasn't a particularly well optimized game on PS5/Xbox. But yeah, I agree it'd sell better on Switch 2 than the Series.

The way things are going, almost zero chance FF7 Part 3 won't have a PS5 version. I expect there will be hardly any PS6 games that aren't crossgen until like the 2030s.

This. If Part 3 takes long enough, it will be day and date cross-gen. Otherwise, it will be a PS5 title that will within months to probably a year and a half get a PS6 version. 

I'm thinking September 2027-June 2028 for Part 3. Square Enix is hoping and planning it will be the same release gap between Remake and Rebirth if not a narrower gap. 

Almost zero chance Part 3 launches on Xbox at the same time as PS5. I don't even think it will be day and date PC. I think it will be the last FF game that will be a timed PlayStation exclusive.
