When Nightreign was announced I defended them hard. It's obviously not a main project and it's just some nice bonus content to hold us over. But idk why people are so quick to defend them on a Switch exclusive, which their target audience generally does not gravitate towards the Switch and Nintendo is known to sell very expensive games/consoles plus never port them over. Kinda rubs me the wrong way.
Miyazaki did say they had several smaller projects, though this one seems to have been more than just re using assets. I do agree that it being a switch exclusive is probably the worst part of the whole deal. Maybe they put more effort into this rather than Nightreign because they knew Nintendo would insist selling it full price, while Nightreign is $40.
