The Nintendo Switch version of RPG Maker MV is fully capable of doing that… but there is an extremely steep learning curve involved in actually creating something playable. Still, perhaps you’re not looking to sell your game on Steam, but just want to share it with the world.

This is for multiple reasons, but the simplest one may be that the Nintendo Switch version lacks some of the important utility of the PC version - namely, the ability to edit the Javascript at work behind the scenes, and the ability to publish a self-contained Javascript app of your game that you can peddle as your own product. And while that is theoretically possible, it is highly unlikely that this dream will come even close to reality for most who create something using the Nintendo Switch version of the software. In part because of this, would-be game designers tempted to buy RPG Maker MV might picture themselves creating a game that is similarly embraced by players. This series has something of an established pedigree, as multiple cult hit games have been developed using versions of the software over the years - To the Moon was originally created on RPG Maker software, the Corpse Party franchise began its life as an RPG Maker game, and infamously Super Columbine Massacre RPG also has RPG Maker to thank for its existence. RPG Maker MV, released on PC in 2015 and ported to PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch in 2020, is a Content Creation Application in a long-running franchise that allows players to create and share their own custom-made RPGs.
