Series director Tetsuya Nomura confirmed there are currently no specific plans for more Kingdom Hearts games on Switch. Square Enix did consider ports of existing games for Switch in the past but found that it was technologically difficult. However, Nomura added that he believes Nintendo Switch is a very appealing piece of hardware and he had always wanted to do something on this console. Additionally, while he cannot speak for games at Square Enix that he isn’t associated with, Nomura did express that it is possible another game of his could come to Switch.

What do you think of this information regarding the series' future on the Nintendo Switch? Let us know in the comments below!

If there are no plans to port the rest, why even bother optimizing Melody of Memory for the console at all? That's just getting people's hopes up for nothing. Sure, 0.2 and KH3 do seem to be somewhat  too much for the Switch to handle, but the other games would surely run just fine.

I'm betting the unreal engine cutscenes are pre-rendered and not actually in-game, which is why that's fair game. Still sucks tho.

I wouldn't take this as the end all be all, personally. The way I interpret it is no specific plans at the moment....but plans can always change. And besides they have kind of contradicted themselves in the past like saying the ReMIX games wouldn't come to PS4. Interestingly too, he did an interview with IGN a few years back where he didn't rule out the possibility of KH III on the Switch, so again with contradictions. 

As for technological difficulties, not sure what to make of that - I mean I look at games like the FFX/X-2 HD Remaster released on the Switch and it makes me think if they could do that, then previous titles in the KH series should be possible as well. I've always never expected the series to come to the Switch, but something about this makes me not want to rule out it completely.
