Devil May Cry 5 director says the game might be considered for Switch if Dragon’s Dogma sells well
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The key to getting Devil May Cry 5 on Switch may lie with the performance of another Capcom title. The latest news comes from director Hideaki Itsuno, who left the door open to a port while speaking with German magazine M! Games.
When asked why Devil May Cry 5 isn’t on Switch, Itsuno explained that development started before the team had dev kits. Capcom therefore concentrated on releasing the game for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. However, Itsuno added that if Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen sells well, they might consider porting Devil May Cry 5 to Nintendo’s console.
Dragon’s Dogma: Dark Arisen launches for Switch on April 23. It’s the first time this title will be appearing on a Nintendo system.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

As we reported earlier in the west, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy is launching for Switch in the west on April 9. Capcom followed up on that by making the date official today, and confirming something else about the release.

If that’s something you’re disappointed about, you can purchase a physical copy from Play-Asia here. Despite being the Japanese edition, English is supported any will work on any Switch system.
Here’s some additional information on Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Trilogy from Capcom:

Resident Evil 1, Resident Evil 4 won’t be available physically on Switch
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Capcom dated three classic Resident Evil games for Switch earlier today. We also received confirmation that two of those titles, Resident Evil 0 and Resident Evil 1, will be bundled together as a physical option. However, not everything is as it seems.
Similar to North America, Resident Evil 0 and Resident Evil 1 will be getting the Resident Evil Origins Collection bundle in Japan. There is one downside though: Resident Evil 1 will be offered as a download code. That means Resident Evil 0 will be on cartridge, but not the other game.
We also have an update on Resident Evil 4 as Capcom says it will be download-only in Japan. That means, as of now, there will not be any region with access to a physical version of that title on Switch.
