Sorry, publishers gave in the past a lot of shit to Nintendo if they made insane rules and left games off of Nintendo platforms, and they usually were applauded by the gaming community for it. Nintendo often did not give a fuck, but look what that lead to. Same with Microsoft and their plan for family share and so on at the XB1-reveal. You really want that for Sony?

If you're referencing the worst behavior Nintendo has been guilty of in the past, various strongarm tactics they employed on third parties in the NES/SNES days, I don't think Sony not allowing cross-play with it's console competitors is going to have as much of a negative impact. The scale of the 2 situations is quite disparate. If that is indeed what you're talking about. And just to be clear, I do think it's bullshit that Sony won't allow account sharing to be integrated. I'm also not against cross-play per say, but can certainly understand why Sony wants no part of it as far as it concerns getting into bed with Microsoft. If cross play matters to Bethesda, perhaps they can up the ante, and die on the hills of Fallout 76 and Doom Eternal.

Oh, it can even be so simple stuff like missing voice chat or achievements on Nintendo. In my opinion it is extremely simple to add these features, but Nintendo is too stupidly stubborn to do that. And they get shit for that. And this is right. But Sony should get away with their shitty practice? If people say it does not matter much, that is true (just like voice chat and achievements). But even if it does not matter much for sales, it is not ever something that should be defended.
