FFXIV FOR THE NINTENDO SWITCH

Thinking about this...will Stormblood work on the PS Vita? Hopefully that thing doesnt hold us back going forward. (I'm assuming it's weaker than the PS4.)

Final Fantasy XIV doesn't work natively on the PS Vita at all. Remote play is simply streaming the game being run by the PS4 to the Vita's screen and relaying your analog/button inputs. SE has no reason to consider the PS Vita's remote play feature in the development of content for FFXIV. Even when they announced that it would technically work when they released FFXIV for PS4, they heavily recommended that you only use Remote Play for single player related gameplay such as crafting and gathering. Given the way the UI is, to put it one way, not optimized for such a small display (a higher resolution might let you fit more things on screen, but all the resolution in the world won't help with a lack of display real estate), that recommendation isn't unwarranted, and in fact has some relevance in the subject of porting it to the Nintendo Switch as well, on top of the fact that you wouldn't be streaming the game on the Switch.
