It was…unrelated
Three days ago the official South Park Twitter account posted a tweet that stated “Nin-ten-do. I’m coming. I’m coming, Nin-ten-do #blizzard2017,” leading some to believe that it was a tease for a Switch version of the upcoming RPG South Park: Fractured But Whole. But since it was under the general account for the show and not necessarily the game, it was probably just a commentary on the recent snow the east coast has been getting.
As it turns out, that assumption was correct. Speaking to IGN, reps for South Park Digital Studios straight up said “South Park: The Fractured But Whole won’t be coming to the Switch.” While it was clear that it was some sort of random joke/callback to a previous episode from 2006, at the very least people know that there’s no hope of the game coming to the Switch.
We’re going to see a lot of “Switch?” requests in the next year or so, and we likely aren’t going to get them until it pushes more hardware.
