So, as you can see, Japanese fans are also interested in seeing a KH game come to the Switch. And, to be honest, seeing this list gets me kind of excited to see if a KH game would come on the Switch.The Nintendo Switch is selling like hot cakes all around the globe that it's very possible that it will pass by the Nintendo Wii in sales. And it's attracting a lot of Japanese game developers and Japanese games. I mean as far as JRPG's go for the Switch we're getting Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (which has recently released), Disgea 5 (Which also released on the Switch and has actually sold a good number of units on the system), Ys VIII, The World Ends With You (with extra story content), Valkyria Chronicles, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2 (which also released recently on the Switch) and the new "Tales Of" game that's Namco is working on. So honestly, I would LOOOOOOOOVE to see a KH game be on the Switch. Heck, they can downgrade some of the graphics and textures if they have to to fit it on Switch. I don't care because the Switch is such an amazing and unique console that it would be weird to NOT have a KH game on the thing. I mean come on guys, tell me you wouldn't love to play an all new console title KH game on the go. Huh? Huuuuuuuh!? And it would be very interesting too because no KH game has even been on a console Nintendo game before so it would be pretty neat to see a KH game be on one for a change. I mean yeah we had KH games on the handheld Nintendo systems but yeah...the handheld ones...lol. Not saying it's a bad thing or anything. Plus, if the Xbox One is going to be getting KH3 despite not having any previous history with the KH series, why not with the Switch as well. And I can guarantee you that a KH game on the Switch would cause some hype as well some good sales with how much hype the Switch has and the killer library of games it has. Now I know what you're thinking "Oh but Tails Lord Nomura said he wants all the KH games to be on a single console to make it easier for people to follow and understand the series". And to that I say...why not have that KH game be on multiple platforms. I mean come on, we're in an era where a game can be on multiple consoles. So there's my counter argument for that, haha  .

 

But honestly what do you think of this?

I say sure why not. I don't care about any fanboy console snobbery- if they can do it I'm ok with it.

Yeah I agree. The whole thing with these "Console Wars" is dumb. But yeah, having a KH game on the Switch would be awesome to me. I play on my Switch a lot. And I do mean...A LOT lol.

Now the japanese gamers in order to play Kingdom Hearts 3, they would ditch ps4 for that shitting console of Switch. What bastards. Couldn't Nintendo disappear from the console market for good?!

It's not worth it. I want KH3 to actually come out, so no new spin offs, no time wasted downgrading KH3 enough to run on a Switch

 

if they want to port it later, sure

Who said anything about ports? We could have an all new KH game on the Switch after KH3 comes out. I think it would be interesting to see a KH game on the Switch. Edited January 18, 2018 by Tails

Interesting. I can see the appeal in being able to play Kingdom Hearts on-the-go with the Switch, especially since I think most of them are usually up and about instead of sticking at home (which is probably why mobile games like KHUX and handheld games in general are very popular there).

 

Switch is going to get that Dark Souls remastered so I say that's the real test of graphic quality for those concerned. We practically know that KH3 is going to be flashy and having so much happening on screen will push the systems I bet. No doubt considering that it's Nomura we're talking about, any other KH games after the Xehanort Saga will also be flashy.

 

Again, it would be interesting indeed for KH to appear on the Switch. Although....I think by the time we get confirmation of the next KH game, we'd be on the next generation of consoles so I dunno really (how old are PS4 and Xbone again?).

11. The new Earthbound

 

The series already ended unless they meant a port of any or all of the three games.

Hey, the more people are able to get their hands on Kingdom Hearts III, regardless of console of choice, the better! It'll keep rolling in Kingdom Hearts fans and those interested in the series that aren't able to invest on a PS4! I say that if Square has the chance, they should definitely bring KHIII to the Switch as well!
