Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Microsoft plans to bring more ports to Switch this year, no plans for Xbox Live SDK on Switch just yet

My money is on ReCore, Super Lucky's Tale, and Ori and the Blind Forest. Lucky and Ori should be able to run on Switch easily since neither is that graphically demanding. ReCore would need some downgrading, but nowhere near as much as any of their AAA games would need. Rare Replay might be a possibility, but would be too much work I'm sure, porting 30 games to Switch. Some individual Rare ports might happen though.

I can't believe this is really happening! This E3 is gonna be amazing!

I'm trying not to get too overhyped here, but how could they not at least port Ori? And at least something from Rare will have to come over eventually.

I guess Microsoft sees the Switch as a Handheld and not a home console than. To Microsoft, the Switch is not stealing any customers from them so they see this as easy money.

I also see this all as a long term courting effort.  If the day ever comes where consoles are no more and everything is streaming they want Nintendo games on their service.



This remember me the cancelled Halo project for NDS

(=^・ω・^=) Kuroneko S2 - Ore no Imouto - SteamMyAnimeList and Twitter - PSN: Gustavo_Valim - Switch FC: 6390-8693-0129 (=^・ω・^=)

regardless of the title, more games for me to play on the go, always a good thing. Bring on the MCC and I'll need a new splatter proof screen protector lol.



Why not check me out on youtube and help me on the way to 2k subs over at www.youtube.com/stormcloudlive

Ori would be amazing, the best Metroid Vania game i have ever played.
MS looks after Nintendo and Nintendo looks after MS with allowing Live for Minecraft and crossplay. This is how we want to see the industry grow.

Rare Replay. Bring Banjo Kazooie home!

This would be soooo amazing, I always wanted to play Banjo without the need to own an Xbox  or to emulate the game.



It seems MS is using Nintendo as there portable device platform rather than making one for there own. Its a smart move. The switch is a great companion console and one that allows MS games the portability option.



The third party support for Switch is to a point even other platform holders are putting their games on it.



Lol, I remember it being weird when Sonic first appeared on a Nintendo console. At this rate they are going to get Master Chief too.



Wouldn't say no to Rare Replay or Ori(which is rumored). Insane if they did new Battletoad day one on Switch, but that would never happen
