Capcom is already confirmed as a partner for Switch, as was announced a couple of weeks ago. As part of its latest financial results briefing Q&A, president and CEO Kenzo Tsujimoto talked a bit more about the platform.

Tsujimoto noted that it’s pleasing to see a new the appearance of a new platform. Capcom hopes to make games that can offer an experience tailored to the characteristics of each hardware and to the enjoyment of each target audience. Currently, the company is engaged in internal review and planning about offering content for the console as a partner.

Tsujimoto also explained that Capcom is looking into the feasibility of multiplatform development for PS4, Xbox One and Switch. However, it’s too early to be sure, and the feeling is that the Switch offers a different experience compared to those other platforms. As DualShockers notes, “hardware for each game will be selected taking in consideration the characteristics of each hardware, in order to maximize the fun provided to the player.”
