Tribute Games still interested in bringing Flinthook to Switch

When it was first known as NX, Tribute Games mentioned having interest in bringing Flinthook to Switch. Nothing has changed since then.
On Twitter, Tribute Games told one fan that the team would “love” to release its new game on Switch. The message reads:
@CombatCat13 We'd love to port in onto Switch!

Tribute Games also has some interest in bringing Flinthook to NX

You may recall that we put up a post last week regarding Mercenary Kings on NX. In a Twitter interaction with a fan, Tribute Games showed some interest in making that happen.
Tribute Games co-founder Jean-Francois Major saw our post, and actually brought up another possibility. He told us that if the studio can be in a position to have a game out for NX at launch, the team will port over Flinthook.
@NinEverything here’s a better news story. If Nintendo gives us a slot to release a game at NX launch, we’ll have Flinthook on there!

We followed up with Major within the past few days, who said he and Tribute Games “still stand by our dreams of making games for Nintendo consoles.” That being said, it’s tough for them to commit to NX since such little information is floating around at the moment. However, he reiterated, “given the chance to release a NX launch title, I think we would jump at the occasion.”
Major added that, regarding Flinthook, Tribute Games is “still trying to figure out where the title will end up,” and nothing is set in stone. The team is “still shopping around for the best partner for the game.”
