Reason for EA's declined plans to bring The Sims 4 to the Nintendo Switch

Personally I would love a switch version as I find the tv in the house is far too big and it kills my eyes. I'm getting older and I haven't got time to be sat at the family tv with it. I find games are very seldom tailored towards the actual fans of the franchise and try to focus more on bringing new fans in.

The switch is handy for a part time gamer like myself and there are plenty of big games on it, I would have no problem buying more storage to support it but it's not a big task to make the game worth playing because there are people who still play much older versions of the sims that still enjoy them and they're from ps1 and ps2. It's not beyond their ability they just don't want to have to fix glitches on yet another platform. Look how long it took them to drop sims 5 and focus on sims 4 which people were still actively buying add ons that were broken and not being fixed. Despite fans of the genre saying it was absolutely disgraceful especially when they were still rolling out more add ons on top of it.

They should look to expand the game especially now that they've decided the fans were right and abandoned the sims5 project. 

i'd buy the sims: bustin' out for the switch. (the gamecube version, not the gameboy advance version.) 

I'm okay with it being left off the Switch, and honestly, I'd rather see the return of The Urbz if EA ever decided to bring any part of the franchise to the Switch. 

The Switch can barely run a lot of big games, and The Sims 4 is a data vampire that often struggles to run in high-end PCs. Even if they downsized the game's graphics (ala Persona 5 on Switch), I feel like the game, even with half of its DLC, would make your Switch to burst into flames.

Nintendo Switch now has GBA games, so I'm sort of hoping that the old The Sims console games return to the Switch. Would be great.

I think it's best if sims were to be on switch it needs to be another sims game.

I'm not sure that EA ever confirmed that the Sims 4 was coming to Nintendo Switch, I know it's something players wanted/been asking for. Given the limitations of the Nintendo Switch, which has struggled to play games like Hogwarts Legacy, I can see why EA would be hesitant to port The Sims over.  There's supposed to be a successor to the Nintendo Switch coming next year, it just hasn't been announced it. There's always a chance that the next-gen of Sims will come to the next-gen Nintendo system. EA did have previous Sims games on the DS and Wii back in the day.
