To be able to make games for hardware that is doing very well makes both sides happy.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;Without a doubt the Switch plays a huge part in the growth of the Japanese market right now.&#8221;<em><br \/><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><em>Are you glad to hear Platinum and Nintendo are getting along?
