I doubt that. Since theres way more Switch 1 in the wild, my bet is they wanna get all the tomadochi community pretty engaged in the game, then some time later they will drop the enhaced version with camera support, mouse controls and all the imaginable things they can get from the hardware to entice the ones that didnt made the jump

No first-party NS1 only releases have occurred since launch, everything from Nintendo has been NS2 exclusive or NS1 and NS2 launching on both platforms, why would Nintendo change that strategy for this specific title? 

Because that is what make the most sense for this type of game. Tomadochi Life is about exchanges among the players. They get themselves involved in this game sharing experience for a long time. So you as developer want a huge amount of people in the game, as fast as you can, to build a huge and strong community for many years.

Segregating the audience right in the beggining would cut the excitiment for a long waited new entry.

Let the players get attached to the game first, then , way later, give the premium upgrade, so they are more willing to make the jump to continue their experience.

Animal Crossing New Horizon will be a great laboratory to prove what I am saying.

If my theory is right, my guess is that Tomodachi Life NS2 Ed. will come alongside Switch 2 lite release
