I'm really struggling to understand what this feature is trying to say. The only reason this would make sense is if everyone had a Switch and an Xbox such obviously isn't the case
I am flabbergasted that some people seem to think Nintendo would be happy having a third party game streaming service (from a competitor nonetheless which people seem to forget) that would be almost guaranteed to hit software sales on the Switch.
Some people seem to forget that the Switch is almost guaranteed to be the best selling Nintendo home console of all time
@Heavyarms55 Tbf, I've played a trillion platformers in my life and I still died 150 times in Cortex castle and have absolutely no desire to get anywhere close to 106% (which wasn't too far from doable for me in Crash 3 for example)
@Kislevi03one and having a couple of established franchises exclusive to consoles they never had a big footprint on achieves what exactly? It's not great from a business sense and terrible for players
Probably won't bite on BOTW 2 if it doesn't feature at least some more linearity and makes exploring feel more rewarding because whilst I liked exploring in botw I often felt like I was lacking a purpose so if they could add that it would probably make it into my top 3 Zelda games

Re: Video: Now Is The Best Time To Release Mother 3
Interesting to see someone get so worked up about Nintendo not localising a 15 year old game from a very niche series

Tough one but I think it's between Europe or Japan and I think Europe wins it
Re: Random: Head Of Xbox Phil Spencer Still Has That Nintendo Switch On His Shelf
@Jeronan It will effect software sales on Switch which are incredibly strong as people have limited time and money to spend on video games
Re: Random: Head Of Xbox Phil Spencer Still Has That Nintendo Switch On His Shelf
No, Nintendo is not going to allow the streaming service of a competitor on their platform that has ridiculously high software sales.

Re: Post Malone To Star In Pokémon 25th Anniversary Virtual Concert
@MorganWhoop Not in terms of hearing their music on the radio but then again most European radio stations won't play rap at all
