Do you think SQE will an Original AAA FF game for Switch?

I doubt there's any AAA Final Fantasy games in development besides FFXVI and the FFVII Remake sequels. All of Square's main teams should be accounted for (Kitase's team on FFVIIR, Yoshida's team on XVI and XIV, Luminous on Athia, and the Dragon Quest people doing DQXII).
They should make a new FFT game on there instead. Perfect for the platform after Fire Emblem's success.
Bravely Default is basically a Final Fantasy spin-off. The first game's abbreviation is even BD:FF.
Not one iota. Switch, like the DS and the Wii will get spin offs that, while possibly good, will be nowhere near AAA budget. I just don't think its in their design philosophy. Low end machines have always tended to get budgeted titles and the power consoles get the AAA.
Unlikely as they're already too busy working on FF14, FF16 and all those FF7 games! :D
X-2 and XII are available on Switch as well.

I think that Bravely Default and Octopath Traveler, among the other smaller multiplatform rpgs will be the ones reaching the Switch. Although, I can see a smaller scale FF title on Switch on a scale less than AAA but not as quite AA.
Lol, no.
Bravely Default being its own thing despite its classic FF/4HoL roots just tells me SE doesn't want to muddle things too much when it comes to what's considered a mainline game. To them, FF equals production values beyond what the Switch can handle. They might give the thing its own spin-off down the line, but even those seem to have dried up in recent years outside of mobile.
I don't expect the situation to change regardless of how MHR or that future RE title perform, things have been pretty much the same for years now.

Who the hell is SQE?
You know what, I want this game remastered.
The last time they tried something like that. Tbh I enjoyed it.

i don't see why not. Depending how you define AAA
we got Crisis Core and Type 0 (which were big budget handheld games) for the PSP and iirc they did fairly well.
Final Fantasy is loosing their audience in Japan, while breaking records in the west.
Wouldn't this be a opportunity or atleast a chance for SE to make both sides happy? Mainline FF Games for PS5,Xbox and PC and try to create a big budget spinn-off series for the Switch to recapture the audience in Japan (they can still release the switch game for the other plattforms aswell)
imo it would be a worth a try
