Final Fantasy XVI Producer Naoki Yoshida Says ‘Only Nintendo Left’

Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida speaking during a live stream (via ResetEra) was discussing the recently announced and released Xbox Series X|S port of the game and possibly teased the game might get ported to the Nintendo Switch 2.

Yoshida stated it is “just Nintendo left” and creative director Kazutoyo Maehiro added he “will do his best.”
