Nintendo solves their 3rd party problem by being able to use Project Xcloud to stream multiplats. Nintendo hardware sales go up. Xbox subscriptions go up. Better Together!
Xbox Nintendo Partnership at E3
they should make a switch/wiiu/any other gimmicky shit with better hardware and it will be kino
They also made a pitch to Sony to get Gamepass on the PS4-5 but it was rejected because Sony didn’t want it cutting into PSnow subs and sales of third-party multiplats.
I’m honestly fine with MS going pseudo-third party next gen; hopefully we actually get something new from the Phantom Dust IP.
It honestly wouldn't be a bad idea imo.
Especially if the new Xbox systems come out with some app where you can stream the gameplay from there directly to the Switch if you have an Xbox Live account.
It would help deal with the complaints about third party support for Nintendo, help keep Microsoft relevant in the international market
Sonys strategy is big cinematic experiences next gen with big budget exclusives. Hmm...
>they should make a switch/wiiu/any other gimmicky shit with better hardware and it will be kino
Do you remember the Kinect?
yeah. from my exprience it sold very well since everyone had one
checked also some sources now xbox 360 got 84 million and kinect some 18 million
But do you think it was particularly well received?
>They also made a pitch to Sony to get Gamepass on the PS4-5
No they didnt
i dunno really since i got ps3 and didnt care
also dont wanna check again for anything
>Xbox subscriptions go up. Better Together!
By charging innocent Nintendo guys $60 a year to play a few shitty xbox games (Also on PC)
Stfu the point is its on a portable device. Kill yourself.
Does them lying outright like this really do anything for them?
Nintendo know they're full of shit, fan's (mostly) know they're full of shit.
What does Phil Spencer accomplish by lying as much as he can and claiming he loves Nintendo.
Nintendo execs like the Playstation and Sony gaming execs love Nintendo consoles but neither company likes Xbox.
>Inb4 "ACTUALLY user AS A PRO NINTENDO/SONY FAN I CAN CONFIRM THAT MY FAVOURITE COMPANY DOESN'T LIKE THE OTHER COMPANY!"
xbox can finally brag abou their sales number by adding nintendo on it??? you know this is the 1st thing they will do
How is xbox live going these days buddy?
Enjoying Halo still?
I am happy to watch you kill yourself.
He's trying to come off as being nice and classy to deflect criticism about how he's handled the Xbox division during his tenure.
Considering NoA and Microsoft are neighbors (they're down the street from eachother in Redmond Washington) I doubt there is serious hostility.
If anything it's more interesting how willing Microsoft was willing to advertise alongside Nintendo in the Minecraft Switch cross play ad.
Console Wars only exist in the ranks of obsessive fanboys.
Its the coolest online experience. Enjoy ur gay hackers free pc boi
>WAAAH THESE INDUSTRY CEOS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE MORTAL ENEMIES TO FIT MY SHITTY CONSOLE WAR AGENDA
You'll find that most of these corporate types actually get along, and they don't care about other companies making money as long as they're also making money.
they only tried the crossplay fad with nintendo because of the fortnite controversy and failed to pull numbers. i would have believed them but the timing is too suspicious
Phil has been doing a bang up job fixing the xbox brand though.
From taking smaller studies under their wing to selling decent hardware at a budget price, fixing the backwards compatibility issues, getting a solid value for people out of game pass which includes new releases, PC and console releases for all their 1st party games with cross platform support and now rumors of going all in on cross platform across other companies' hardwares could mark a huge comeback for the xbox name.
It's way better than when Don Mattrick was in charge of the brand.
Sony fags on damage control
I absolutely agree with both of you, if it was Any company except Microsoft.
MIcrosoft and Apple are the only two companies in the world that genuinely hate their competition. Its what made them both such powerhouses in their own times
MIcrosoft in 95 - 2005
Apple in 2007 - 2012
But these two companies absolutely hate customers and competition, that's just the way they are. I guess there is other companies like that but I don't know who they are.
Also I will say I don't think Sony, Valve or Nintendo are perfect they definitely have some top level execs that are literally EA equivalents but the vast majority is done with love.
Nah I think they would've eventually done that anyway given how hard they were pushing xbox+PC crossplay online in recent years leading up to that.
I rather play my gane locally on my machine, cloud gaming can suck my dick.
Cloud gaming = no modding. Can't even edit an .ini file.
About this, I don't know if this is actually happening, If Nintendo of Japan says no, then it's not happening since Microsoft's xCloud streaming does compete with Nintendo Onile and Classic Games Selection along with their mobile division so we'll have to see if NOJ says yes to this but they may say no.
youtube.com
I also know for a fact, it's not coming to the PS4/PS5 due to it competing with PSNow and Sony would never allow it. Microsoft needs to stop with this shit because now it's feeling like desperation and like they just gave up. I believe we will only see xCloud/Game Pass on Xbox consoles, PC, mobile devices, and TVs that have apps but it will fail in all categories except the consoles.
I would have posted this several days sooner but the mods were being faggots.
*Online
They're going to raise the price of their shitty Nintendo Switch Online to $59.99 without making a single improvement to the service, but justify it by saying it now comes with Xbox Game Pass.
Dude project xcloud will be launching on iphones too. I literally use my xbox app to chat with xbox friends on my apple iphone.
Not him but they did, Microsoft was stupid to even ask, I can understand still getting an Xbox if the games are on a PC, tablet, phone, TV, or Switch because all of these are in a different market but the PS4/5 would outright kill the Xbox and make Microsoft look stupid. What's the point of buying an Xbox or any future Xbox console if all of your games is on a console that gets the same games and more, Microsoft. So I'm happy Sony said no, I honestly hope Nintendo does the same.
>Implying Microsoft sees Nintendo as competition
Microsoft is worried about Amazon, google, and to a lesser extent Sony. Nintendo is going for a different audience and wants to sell hardware/toys. Microsoft is trying to get everyone on their software services.
Xbox guy/Nintendo guy here even Brad Sams is questioning this rumor.
Sony doesn't make games, anymore.
What will it use outside to stream games? Cell towers? You are dreaming if you think it will work.
Post YFW Nintendo obtains microsoft.
This is why Sony isn't at e3. They are too edgy and full of themselves to play with the rest of the kids. Microsoft and Nintendo will do this thing and then every single question Sony would get at e3 by fans and journos would be "why arent you doing it?"
It's just as well. Reggie wouldn't be there to make this face at them anyway.
He has that face of a little annoying spic kid
Fuck off, Xniggie. No one wants your fucking stink on Nintendo.
They're really pushing for the cloud gaming experiences and Nintendo's IPs are mostly able to cope with that with possibly the exception of Smash or Splatoon. I'm a bit surprised that Nintendo hasn't tried to push their weight to get infrastructure of their own and try this but it may be the ship has sailed with them no longer competing for the high end graphics and not having strong enough relationships with third party developers. They might want to get out of the business in regards to hardware and let you stream anywhere from a device if the business model allows for it and they can switch.
Fuck off cunt. I would get Ori on Switch.
I'm an Xbox and Nintendo fan here to tell you guys that this is likely not to happen at all.
Just as well it's an indie game then.
Yeah, let's keep ignoring me and the fact that this is likely not to happen, Xbox fanboys, Nintendo fanboys, and Sony fanboys are all stupid.
Obvious falseflag and certificate fag.
I hate streaming game
If they don't make physical release port then i don't even cares
I don't even think you need to worry about this Brad Sams says that this is up to NOJ to decide and if they don't get a good deal out of it then it won't happen, Sony already said no to it.
This shit has gotten out of hand and is probably one of the most baseless rumors I've ever seen
Wouldn't be the first time they told MS to fuck off.
>literally never have to buy an Xbone now
MS is pulling out of the console business aren't they?
Sony desperately needs competition. This is potentially a good thing.
>fuck off
That word remind of me of Wii guy. He did present Wiimote idea to Sony but they tell him to fuck off and when he present idea to Nintendo, it's become Billions dollar console. Sony is so jealous and even trying to copy his idea later with PS move which is completely failure
As an Xbox guy, I hope they do, Google and Amazon ain't going to do shit to console gaming, they want to push an Xbox app, mobile, TVs, and PCs exist. Nintendo wouldn't want Microsoft games and better online to overshadow their's mixed in with their Classic Games Selection, and mobile games. Microsoft needs to put more focus on beating Sony next gen, I'm also happy about Sony saying no too since it competes with PSNow and at that point what would be the point of even owning an Xbox.
>CrapGamer
Literally the worst.
Made up
We already been through this, it's never happening because Sony would see it as competing with their PSNow, their first party games, and their third party relations. I'm glad they're getting a no from Sony and hopefully Nintendo that way all focus will be on the Xbox.
>handheld console
>Need to be connected to internet to play games
>Actual switch versions of multiplats no longer worthwhile making
Stupid idea.
This. How the fuck i gonna find hi-speed wifi to play streaming game outdoor without lag?
This idea is absolutely retarded
This is why NOJ will say no, I'm not even sure xCloud will even take off and I doubt anyone will buy the discless Xbox Lockhart, it's the Xbox Anaconda that will sell and it's the Anaconda that I'm buying, streaming will happen next gen and die off quick. Google and Amazon will fail and so will Xbox Lockhart. I don't know why big companies think this shit will succeed.
nintendoenthusiast.com
You guys can end this now, xCloud and Xbox Game Pass isn't coming to the Switch or PS4/5.
I remember that they tried to get that deal with Sony but Sony just flat out rejected them
There's been so many "rumors" recently, he should try being specific.
That's true but even Brad Sams doesn't seem so sure about this one. It was probably something that was thought about but then dropped.
