But are they putting Bayonetta on Xbox? Why haven they?Better yet...would they?

Now lets use reason to understand why Xbox is so quick to go third party.

Because they (MS) want to bring their games and services to a wider audience. But that doesn't take anything away from Xbox gamers. They lose nothing by Switch owners also being able to play Cuphead or the older Halos.

Lets think about this again. As consumers...who has gained from that deal? and who has remained the same in the share of games they have. For consumers this exchange is not equal. If you cant see that only Microsoft, Nintendo and their fanbase have gained while Xbox gamers have not, there is an issue.

Microsofts gain= Money, units of software sold and subscriptions. The potential for getting more services grows as the relationship gets more positive response.

Nintendo's gain= Expanded library, a cut of software sales and subscription fees.

Nintendo fan's gain= More Games and services that Nintendo does not provide.

Xbox fans= ????
