USGamer interviewed Monolith Soft executive director Tetsuya Takahashi and it is certainly an excellent read if you are a fan of Xenoblade.
Xenoblade X port
One Wii U game that many were hoping would be ported across to the Nintendo Switch is the epic Xenoblade Chronicles X.
USGamer asked Mr. Takahashi if it is something they will be able to do. He replied that it’s unlikely due to budget and the extensive nature of the role-playing title.
When it comes to roadblocks that stand in the way of Xenoblade Chronicles X on the Switch, Takahashi’s answer is simple.
Money, it’s a massive game. Re-creating it would be really difficult.
Well … if money is a problem but there is an interest for it. Why not go crowdfunding. Then you can check the appeal of it beforehand. But we bet it also has to do with other things like time and un-announced projects.
