It would be quite the task given how it runs on the OG PS4. But if they’re up to the challenge of getting the game to run at 60fps on the Switch, have at it.

I uh don't think it would run well considering how it runs on PS4/One.

PS: for the billionth time, Bamco doesn't really care as to whether or not you beg for the port. Making DBFZ on Switch was already a greenlighted project before people started asking for it.

They do this all the time. They basically use Nintendo fans as their marketing team to bring more attention to the game. Saw it happen with Sword Art, DBZ, Project Cars, etc.

This ain't the Wii u anymore. Not that desperate, have plenty of other games to play instead
Really hate when devs do this

Meanwhile Ed Boon releases MKXI on Switch at the same time with the other consoles.

Anyway, here's my speculation: They're waiting until Season Pass 2 finishes so they can sell the "complete edition" on Switch.

Pray for our lord and savior Namco Kami Sama to bless us with their gratitude that we aren't worthy of to begin with.

Exactly, & the hypothetical Switch port of Tekken 7 is basically dead on arrival if they resort to making it run at 30fps. Hell, the frame-rate drops for DBFZ Switch already made me hesitant about double-dipping for that.

If you know how bad the game looks on Xbox One and how long the loading times are, you know it's for the best for it not to come to Switch.

Sad that a console outselling the PS4 launch aligned and publishers still expect owners to beg for content.

They are already doing but want fans to promote the game for them is my bet

Ugh this is so bad that Sakurai has already been forced by Nintendo to Put one of them as DLC in smash

see my post above

anyway it's late for a tekken 7 port to me, I don't think there are people interested atm. regarding other bn games, Code Vein would be a better fit for the platform since Dark Souls has sold well here

Meh, no thanks Harada. I’m still waiting on news about those GG1 and GGXXAC+R ports by ARC SYSTEM WORKS on Switch. Tekken 7 can wait.

The whole "we've got to see whether the platform takes off" excuse is moot as the Switch is doing great and they never say that for the other platforms, nor do they wait for 'fan demand' before releasing the game on another platform - they're trying to make Nintendo fans port-beg and generate excitement around the game and it's frankly disgusting.
