I think it's a sure thing that Toru Osawa and his staff are working with Koei Tecmo on a new Fatal Frame for switch.

It's so weird the direction that Toru Osawa's career has taken. Went from being one of the main creators, to working with external developers on externally developed IPs. But I kind of think the Fatal Frame series Nintendo run may be done. I mean they funded a lot of games that didn't sell.

Let's see what's next for NST, Next Level Games, Headstrong, Vanpool, Arzest, and Vitei. I think one of those companies may be developing or co-developing Tank Troopers and Pikmin 3DS.

According to @LaurakBuzz Xenoblade Chronicle X will be "switched" too, not by Monolith who's working on a new project for 2018.
So?

Nintendo / ?? -> Xenoblade Chronicles X SE (2017)
Nintendo / Monolith -> New Project (2018)
