Adam Boyes is asking for a job on Twitter, porting Monster Hunter: World to the Switch

I wouldn't even mind an extremely butchered Swotch port. Just want all that QoL changes in a portable Monster Hunter.
Getting something like MHW to run on the Switch would probably be the best PR they could get
If they don't manage to do it they stay right where they are.
They can only gain from such a project

It works.
I didn't know Extinction existed.
Game looks pretty good. Very fluid gameplay from the look of it.
Adam Boyes is a former Capcom employee, who then spent a number of years with PlayStation, and now heads a studio that (among other things) ports games to the Switch.
I love it.
I love it.
He's trying to get Nintendo fans to rally behind the idea and make a big stink about it. Seems desperate.
To be fair MH3 did get ported from Wii to psp, and that tech gap was the same or smaller than the one between ps4 and switch.
But with that said, if Capcom plans on porting it, they'll do it themselves. They weren't even willing to outsource the pc version.

Iron Galaxy... lmao.
Capcom will just look at what they did to Batman Arkham Knight's PC port and laugh.

Well that's a job well done by them then. That free publicity tho.
The studio did Skyrim Switch too, so they already have experience working on the Switch and its a great port.
Well yeah, that was the point of the last portion of my sentence!
Skyrim is a port of a 360/PS3 game. MHW was built from the ground up with better hardware in mind.
I don't want World ported or XX localised. I want a dedicated Switch game built from the ground up using MH: World as its base
I just realized...this is the Adam Boyes who announced the Final Fantasy VII Remake at Sony's E3 conference!
But then there wouldn't be massive retweets and public pressure.
That's true, but that doesn't change the fact that Skyrim Switch is a good port.
User Warned: Drive-by posting.
It would be better to cancel the PC port and move the team working on it to the Switch
I think it has more to do with this:

The following thread is pretty hilarious, with some salty indie devs and others just having fun. Highly recommend it!
So it might be just some good old fun, and maybe a playful work offer too... Wouldn't take it too seriously or put my hopes in it.

Well their current game is set to come out at the end of the month so I wonder if they are just trying to figure out their next project now.
They did port Skyrim to the Switch for Bethesda.

XX for me, Generations was a bit of a letdown. Not even all of the QoL, just the whetstones/picks/bugnet is enough for me to pick up the Switch again.
Wouldn't surprise me if Iron Galaxy has a number of Switch-related contracts right now. I believe I read somewhere that a prominent Switch port house (might have been Panic Button) had to deny some Switch port requests, because they were getting so many offers and their team couldn't handle the workload.
