So I know so far me & alot people want Sims 4 on Switch..But plz someone in office answer our questions. We had someone saying back in Mid 2017 no current plans.. Yet about 2 years no news...If the switch can handle Warframe,ark survival💩,& city skylines.. Then it should be able to run on switch.Quality on the switch by it self 30-35 fps..But once docked speeds rage 30-60 FPS just like any other console would?I don’t understand why we can’t get answers? It’s 2019. The switch just turn 2 yesterday. Can the switch get a sims 4 game by the end of its second year...

I would love to have TS4 on switch. Sometimes I just want to play Sims without having to get out my laptop, and then I could play it wherever basically. The Sims games used to be on Nintendo systems (2 and 3 and spin-offs were on Wii and DS), and I really wish they'd come back.I personally wouldn't even need a gallery, I just want to play.

also just so you're aware because ive been aware for months......There currently are no plans to bring it to Switch at this time.— Drake (@SimGuruDrake) July 26, 2017https://comicbook.com/gaming/2017/07/29/the-sims-4-skipping-nintendo-switch/

Ok not to bring down you're love for the switch but the ps4 and xbox both have separate GPU and CPU. The switch has it incorperated in one chip. With 4 gb of ram memory to 8 gb to the xbox. Both ps 4 and xbox have a reason to be as large as they are. While the switch is very sleek and compact. All the internals of the ps 4 and xbox are to get the most out of a console. While the switch is a hybrid between a console and portable game device. And even the ps 4 and xbox struggle at some point with the sims.The switch is a very cool device and has a lot of cool stuff and games but realistic, it just misses the power. Because 1 chip has to do and graphics and calculations all at once.For the switch, when it is mobile they have turned everything down otherwise the battery would not live long. The docking station has its own power supply. There of can use max. But even then of would not compare. Read https://www.gamespot.com/gallery/console-gpu-power-compared-ranking-systems-by-flop/2900-1334/15/ to see the different.Also note that the switch has something no other console has. You can game mobile on it.So please no more "docking superpowers". I wish you the best but keep of a bit real please. No Harm intended.

Im not trying to change you're mind. Im stating that a switch has not enough computing power compared to a xbox one and/or a ps4. You claim that a switch gets superpowers when docked. I say that it is no superpower. Read the info in the links. They are fact. No strange things in it.To be correct. Im not against sims 4 on switch. It just has not the computing power to run it. So in order to have the sims 4 on the switch maxis has to heavly modify the game. Don't think maxis or EA want to put money in that.In terms of diskspace: (this is from xbox one disk space)Base game : 13,3 gbGet to work : 1,6 gbGet together: 1,6 gbCat's and dogs: 1,9 gbSeasons: 1,3 gbCity living: 2,5 gbGet famous: 2,5 gbThe rest is smaller then 1 gb.Total gb is 30 gb for everything that is there for the sims 4 on xbox.Still wish you good luck and hope you get it some day on the switch.

@Needrar you're not wrong. i didn't wanna be that person to come out with all the facts because i can be very pushy and assertive. im glad i didn't have to. well said!

Once again the Nintendo Switch needs TS4!

Folks let's leave out the discussion of stuff getting moved or deleted, that's discussing moderation and as you should know that's against the rules. Keep the thread on topic, IE discussing the possibility of Sims 4 on Switch.

ARK IS NOT EVEN GOOD TO PLAY ON SWITCH!!!!!!!!!!
caps just for attention. i own ark on both systems, and the framerate as well as the details are FAR SUPERIOR on PS4. ark is absolutely unplayable on switch, unless you are okay with dealing with lag, poor framerate, and absolutely no details. it got so bad in the first few minutes of playing, your character skips steps and bounces backwards because of the lag. and it's because the switch CANNOT handle it. the sims is a far bigger game, it has more components. it's not feasible. they've stated it's not a possibility.

@Paigec945 Are u ok u went haywire? U didn’t even get the understanding what I even said. First I know ark is a bad game that’s why I put this ? for crap. But I was giving a reason not to call a switch weak.First Ark survival badly works on ever console device. it works ok on pc but they even have problems with the game. So don’t even start with superiority but look trashy on Ps4 & switch. & if u clearly look at my comments u would see that I said we’ve not gotten any news for 2 years!(Read before u comment none sense).

@Paigec945 Switch can handle Sims 4 once it’s docked..Dock gives the switch superpowers reaching speeds up to 60 FPS. The switch it self has 1TB of storage. Graphics on the switch when it’s docked can run in 4K at times if u buy something for it. Stop bringing a switch down. Nothing superior of any consoles their all unique in their own way..Nintendo Switch has sales has been very good; this is good business for EA & Maxis to take advantage of..2k19 or 2k18 sports are just not cutting it for me...

I would love to see Sims come to the Switch. However, I do not want an exact port like on Xbox or PS4. I already have it on PC so an exact port wouldn't do anything for me. Something would need to change, direct-control, different worlds, and characters, etc. Like I want a reason to get another version of the game.
