MS isn't just in the business of MS gamers (Xbox and Windows) per se.

Here is the flaw in your argument, you think MS gamers lose because MS supports other platforms. Its the opposite, MS would invest more in games if their revenue increased. Risky projects are easier to justify if they can make money elsewhere.

Hypothetically, lets say MS has rejected the idea to make a new Banjo Kazooie because its not financially viable on Xbox. But what if MS hedge their bet by supporting Xbox, PC and Switch? MS gamers would benefit because they would get the game that might not happen otherwise.

Another possibility is maybe MS could get some exclusive content from Nintendo, like Bayonetta 2 and 3. Unlikely, but more likely than an actual Nintendo IP.

You’re playing chess while they are playing checkers. This second class nonsense is born purely out of console war mentality. Tit for tat doesn’t apply here. As an Xbox gamer I don’t need anything from MS allowing Banjo in Smash or Cuphead on Switch. I’ve played Cuphead and Halo already. MS has been doing this for years already with games going to PC. More revenue for Xbox is never a bad thing if you like to use Xbox.

Yeah, console war people think Xbox users are suffering because other platforms may have access to some MS games. Its incredibly dumb logic.

If I argue thats extra revenue for more software. Then it becomes an argument about ALL MS GAMES being multiplat. Its obvious thought goes into porting decisions made by MS, but when you have an agenda you just pretend to be stupid.
