Yeah man Sony must be in big trouble

:damn:
Odd, nowhere in that article does it mention first party titles going to competing consoles

I might have missed it, mind pointing it out for me? (assuming you read the article)

This will probably allow Nintendo pump out more games consistently from their popular characters. Who knows but this is major
It worked well for them this generation with Cadence of Hyrule and Hyrule Warriors: AoC specifically. In general, except for those Zelda andMario games on CD-i, it works out well for them.

They have IP that they don't really do much with, but that I bet outside devs would love to work with. Maybe they can get Sega to do another F-Zero or something.

At this point Nintendo just needs to acknowledge the damn thing.:why:

Just a quick video on X/Youtube saying “We’re hard at work on the next step for Nintendo and the Switch family. We will share more at a later date.” Or something like that, no name or anything, just something to shut these annoying ass “insiders” up.

Xbox publishes their game on a different platform

"Must be going 3rd party"

Nintendo licensing out 3rd party support.

"They been doing this"
Wrong as usual. Where are you playing the Ubisoft made Mario + Rabbids Spark of Hope. PS5? Nope. Xbox? Nope. PC? Nope. Oh that’s right it’s on the Switch, and they’re licensing out content to fill in their gaps. It is different with Xbox because they’re a failure that needs the cash.

Xbox? Microsoft's Xbox? They need the cash?

:mjlol:





And they need the cash so badly that instead of porting something likes Gears, Forza or Halo they are choosing as dusk falls and *hifi rush :dahell:



The fact of the matter is Xbox and Nintendo are doing what they are doing because is harmless in the grand scope of things and can pull people in from other ecosystems and will make them money.

Xbox are doing what they’re doing because they want a higher ROI in their projects, Nintendo are doing what they’re doing because they’ve had other companies work on their IPs as either second party or contracted for the last 30 years

You’re a fukking dumb c*nt if you can’t see the difference

What don't you get? Xbox is no longer seeing the return they expect on their current platforms. Be it due to small install base or people simply not purchasing the game/gamepass.

:comeon:
