| deskpro2k3 said: You guys need to consider something here. Metal gear solid 4 is PS3 exclusive, meanwhile mgs5 is not. Ff7R is a similar scenario. No other platforms will have it except PS4 and PC. |
OK, lets look at some facts, lotsa IPs that were exclusively on PS1 and PS2 later become multi platform games last and this generation, that goes for FF also. Fact that they said for FF7R "play it first on PS4" screems multplatform game that will just be relased 1st on PS4.

Business sense that will prevent them from releasing the game on the Switch :) |
Actual opposite, FFVII 7R could easily sell around 1m copies on Switch, while costs of porting on Switch would be recovered with just 200-300k copies sold on Switch.

Plus Tetsuya Nomura said that the game will push PS4 beyond it's limits. How a game optimized for push PS4 at full capacity will run on Switch? FFXV can't run on Switch, imagine a new FF that will push PS4 even further. I think that after a year or so it will come to PC as the original one and stop. Square is dropping on Xbox One so i don't think it will come out there. |
"Play it first on PS4" means exactly that, it will be just released 1st on PS4, that doesn't mean they can't announce game for other platforms in meantime.
Evre game could be ported on almost every hardware, Wii that was 20-30x less powerful than PS3/Xbox360 received ports of PS3/Xbox 360 Call of Duty games.Switch is around 3-5x less powerful than PS4, and not only its very easy to work with Switch, but also games uses UE4 engine that its very scalable and its supported by Switch.

| deskpro2k3 said: This notion that "Because Cloud is in Smash" means FF7R will be on Switch is just wishful thinking. If that's suppose to be true, then why is there no Metal Gear games for the past decade on Nintendo when Smash has Solid Snake? |
Snake was in Smash for GameCube and actualy GameCube had Metal Gear game, Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes.
