@PLATINUM7 because mean ol' Sony scared them back in 2005. When RE4 was a Gcube exclusive Sony execs literally got on the phone screaming and yelling bloody murder at Capcom for not making it a PS2 exclusive. Ever since then Capcom has been really nervous about even doing spinoffs for a Nintendo system let alone mainstream entries. Remember 3DS got Revelations, and it was a phenomenal success. Then it was ported to the Sony and MS platforms. Revelations 2 came out straight to everything BUT Nintendo platforms and Capcom's excuse was poor sales. Lol So anytime an RE game hits a Nintendo platform and proves to be a success it puts more hurt on Sony. Sony won't allow that. Fact is they know that they don't stand a chance against Nintendo and that games like RE are one of the only reasons they have an advantage. Sony can only do one thing: make Nintendo look like it's for kids while appealing its own brand to mature audiences. Technology wise, Sony hasn't had any good ideas since the 50s! 🤣 So even if Capcom wanted to do a new RE for switch, it would be RE4/Gamecube Re: Revelations/3DS all over again.
