Didn't the director of the game say he wanted it on Switch? I think that, along with wishful thinking, is propelling this rumor.

I didn't know, that there rumors for it. Again i would not be surprised, if there is a port, just that the weird situation of Pikmen 4 had maybe made it unlikely.
The branding and the gameplay make it really hars to see, who the target audience is supposed to be. Fire Emblem fans may want something different, then this game provides and the connection to Joker is very lose for the common fan. It's a bad crossover-concept in my opinion (no matter if the actual game may be good).
The games properly, the Wii U versions properly not and how the games get on the system is the big question. I don't see them as official ports like the Wii U versions (which were just filler, while BotW was in the work).
I would sign it for a Direct that has these games as its only new announcements. But I fell that XenoX will be ported later, maybe before a X2. It has anyway better chances to be ported than TMS, even though I would buy also the latter.
Well they said "if we were to make a Nier Automata port it would take 2 years......... 1 year and half ago ? And Yoko Taro said he wanted it in a stream
(which would be poor taste if just a joke, at least to me)
Second thing is, Astral Chain is out and it could work well in tandem now.
So NA right before Bayonetta 3 also could work.
Neeeh... I wonder really.
My likely port top (not wanted mind you) would be :
1) W 1 oh 1
2) Mario 3D Wor / Pikmin3
3) #FE / Mario Paper
4) Project 0 and others.
5) X
6) Trash
But I may just love to be negative lol.
It kinda reflects how X was handled in Smash Ultimate.
The story on Xenoblade 2 is bland and cliched but the story in Xenoblade X is dreadful
Ah I didn't realize they put a potential time frame on a potential port. I just knew they said they wanted to port it a while ago.
Yeah, King Zell mentioned a Pikmin 3 port back in February, and Emily is essentially backing that up with the whole "2013 Wii U port" thing.
Since it'll supposedly be an early 2020 title, we'll definitely see it in the next Direct.
BWAHAHAHA!
Oh, the extends people go to justify their preferences.
(XCX's story and characters suck ass no matter how much people try to deny it).
My prediction for new game announcements for the direct :
Overwatch (obviously)
A new Wario Ware
Pikmin 3 port
Nier Automata
Monster Hunter Portable 5
Rage 2
Soul Calibur
Nier Automata and Rage 2 would be my most wanted ones.
I also have a weird feeling that Cyberpunk will get announced for Switch.

All 3 Xenoblade-games are masterpieces. There's really no 'wrong' here. If you haven't played XB2 yet, go play that one asap. XBX isn't really related to that, so no need to wait for a Switch port.
Wait, what did she say that gives that impression? Don't make me wet without reason ;o

Either one works. 2's far more story focused and has more entertaining characters then X does, but X has far better exploration and locations then 2 does.
Is a serviceable story, the biggest problem is that you had to get through an atrocious pacing to get the best part of it.
I don't know which ass it sucks but it sure tastes pretty sweet.
It's ok if you understood nothing about it. I don't mind.
Let's act as if it doesn't have the best side content of the whole series by a mile. Which is btw, as important if not more than the story.
No to mention how the characters feel human for once (and that's not because they are really human).
I had a similar feeling a while back but then I think I read about a CDPR employee mentioning that while they were able to put Red Engine 3 on Switch without much issue they did not think it was feasible to do the same with Red Engine 4 (which Cyberpunk uses)
Yeah.
I also feel like Cyberpunk was really developed with PS5 and Xbox-whatever in mind, and then sort of scaled down to current systems, rather than the other way around.
I don't see Switch getting Cyberpunk ever.
It's one of the better jrpg stories. Unfortunately, people like you ignored the fantastic sidequests that are the meat of the story :(
will stan Xenoblade X till I die. best Monolith Soft game
you know that's fake, rightCan the Switch handle this much ass?
Never say never but yeah I don't see it happening either.
So far the only Wii U ports not under the Mario Umbrella are Pokken, Bayonetta and Hyrule Warriors. I would bet cold hard cash the next Wii U port will be Super Mario 3D World and/or Paper Mario before we see things like XCX, LoZ WW/TP HD, and Pikmin. FE# is more likely now however for some brand synergy with 3H and as a midway point before SMTV comes along in 2020.
Can the Switch handle this much ass?
Yoko Taro: "To prove that Switch is plenty powerful, we doubled 2B's ass from originally 300k to 600k polygons. We had to sacrifice some resolution and framerate, but shouganai."
If you're going to make the sidequests the best part of your JRPG then you failed at making a JRPG.
(And saying that XCX's sidequests are better than its main story is not that much of a compliment).
You'd be betting against the insiders insisting that Pikmin 3 is the next Wii U port :)
Well, I'm taking it from this post:
What is left to port? Of the games that haven't been ported, XBX should be a top three contender, below possibly Super Mario 3D World and Pikmin 3. With the success of XB2 it makes good sense to port XBX. Maybe I'm reading into her post too much and it's just wishful thinking.
I didn't know there were rules about how to design story delivery.
Didn't know this actually, huh. If Pikmin is next then anything goes I guess in terms of what game will be ported next.
sucks to hear that. But I hope they give it a chance and experiment some to get the engine running on Switch. You never know.
Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD seem like no brainers for ports, imo. Color Splash could work too.
Crud. Forgot about those Wii U ports. Okay, fine. XBX top 5. I don't know why they'd port a mediocre game like Color Splash.
I would love to see the reactions to a Color Splash port reveal, lol. As someone who actually gave the game a chance and enjoyed it, seeing people rage over it would be hilarious.
If that did happen, I would hope that some changes would be made to the game to improve some rough spots. Obviously they can't overhaul the entire thing to make it more like 64 or TTYD, but a few changes (specifically to combat) would be appreciated.
TWW and TP were ports already. With LA releasing already, I doubt these will be ported anytime soon.
Color Splash actually makes extensive use of the gamepad, so that'd require a big workaround.
Everyone wishing for Nier Automata, but I would rather have Nier 1 and Drakengard 3, so people finally play the original and so we can have a version of Drakengard 3 thats playable.
Woldn't mind a Collection with all of them and I totally wouldn't mind just Automata, but I feel like the original Nier gets forgotten too much.

Yeah Nintendo don't port colour splash if your stuck a paper Mario game on switch then port TYD from the GameCube.
Then make a proper paper Mario for the love of god :(

Nier: Automata Game of the YoHRa EDITION is around 45 GB alone, a collection with the first Nier is really unlikely with the cart costs, even with forced downloads.
The Witcher 3 is like 70GB on PS4. The Spyro collection was >50GB on other consoles.
Compressing a game(s) for Switch is nothing new.
