I would say JRPG is on par or better on Switch, than Playstation nowadays.
No shot. You can't even play Clair Obsur on it.
I'm also struggling to think of any JRPGs that have been released on Switch but not PS4/5 (aside from first party like Mario RPG). While I can probably name a dozen that the Switch hardware can't even handle.
Well you have Final Fantasy up to 12, Persona, Dragon Quest, Octopath, Bravely Default II, Suikoden remaster, which are some multi platform games.
Xenoblade, Fire Emblem are two pretty heavy and exclusive series. Then as you mentioned Mario RPG (+paper mario).
I agree there are some recent JRPGs that are probably too demanding though. Clair Obscur I am hoping for a Switch 2 version, but we will see.
I was specifically trying to think of JRPGs that are on Switch and not PS4/5...
Aside from Xenoblade and FE, which, fair... Those are the only two modern series I can think of that aren't first party Nintendo titles. And even then, the Xenoblade games have all been remasters for like at least a decade...
The Switch's hardware was outdated when the console came out... it has always been about Nintendo's ability to make great games regardless of hardware imo.
Can definitely agree on the Fire Emblem. Me? Hundreds of hours? Never!
Clair Obscur is not a JRPG though
For all intents and purposes, it is. And I'm sure the developers would agree, given how many homages I've seen so far. It's clearly a love letter to PS1/PS2-era JRPGs.
