Xbox and Nintendo partnership news coming fall 2021

A series that people buy the switch consoles for and even the most mediocre entries sell 18-20 million??? Xbox not gonna see a lick of any Nintendo IP.

Couldn’t fucking hurt.

I mean Series X will be more powerful than Switch Pro. That’s a fact. So if Nier 3: Yoko Taro does more weird shit is gonna be a huge hit, and Square Enix knows that Japan would eat it up on a hand held console, they could justify an Xbox version without having to be paid to do so because they know that xCloud on Switch Pro would get they good money so Nintendo would probably get a cut of the royalites and such.

It makes sense in my head in a way I can’t put to paper.

I’m having a little faith.

I appreciate your ability to lighten the air in here some lol

You can put all of that on every device while simultaneously not harming your service by putting it on Nintendo or Playstation getting nothing in return.

You people realize that There are more ways to access gamepass beyond the Switch and Playstation.

Cool. We both have different views on this. My reasoning is the hololens demo, and they’re neighbors in WA. And yes I know all about Nintendo’s involvement in the ownership of the PokĆ©mon company.

But I do still think there’s a decent chance actually.

If it’s anything other than xCloud I’ll be floored. Switch is the perfect platform for Microsoft to get on considering there’s almost 10 million of them out there.

Plus if Switch Pro xCloud is a huge hit and generates a bunch of money, eventually Sony will yield and bend the knee, basically making Xbox the defacto winner.

I mean, they could still do this the way Remedy or IOI did and sell full cloud versions of the games? Xcloud isn’t exactly necessary for this.

Please don’t make me swing back around.

And i dont know how yet, but it will also somehow result in that star wars game you wanted

STAR WARS CRACKDOWN 4?

Gotta keep em separated.

I 100% think xCloud + Game Pass on Switch will have almost zero impact on Xbox as a whole console sales and all that. I understand what you’re saying and if it was PS5 yeah I’d agree it will probably hurt them a bit more but not at all for the Switch. If you can point me to some evidence that there are people who are on the edge of buying a Xbox or a Switch and this move will make them buy a Switch I would be keen to see it.

All this talk is a bit weird to me seeing as you don’t currently need a Xbox to play it’s games.

The only thing that would be a bummer is, Xbox gets the Switch version, so nowhere near what XSX can do. Kinda like Dragon Quest. But it’s better than nothing. On the other hand, Japanse games coming to Xbox have been improving, but with Sony there’s no telling what the future will look like. Athia and FF16 are good examples.

Maybe Nintendo can put Mario in DOOM or Halo Infinite

Look in some kind of weird dumb dumb dumb ass near toxic fanboy level way, it could be like that scene in fantasy novels where two enemies team up to take down the biggest bad.

ā€œOh no, we have a common enemy and must unite to fight the real bad guy because we have a common causeā€

A kind of Vegata/Goku thing.

It’s a dumb thing I’ve typed, but it works.

Honestly there is sort of a bromance betwen Xbox fans and Nintendo fans I think, the two companies seem to like each other :wink:
