| HyrulianScrolls said: I don’t think IPs like Forza and Halo would be wise since MS desperately needs to keep what little popular exclusives they have as exclusives, but Rare stuff 1000% needs to find its way to Switch. Rare isn’t doing MS any good on their consoles because it’s the wrong target demo for the Xbox crowd, but Nintendo fans would be all over Rare stuff just like they were back in the day. Their IPs are perfect fits for Nintendo and a proper new Banjo game on Switch could be 5m+ or even higher big. On XBO or XBS it would be very lucky to even crack a mil. |
New Halo and Forza games would still be exclusive to the new XBox SX. That's the point. You want the new instalments of those IP as a Switch fan and you choose an XBox.
If the Nintendo audience can become XBox-leaning/XBox friendly ... that's a big audience for MS to have an edge with over Sony. And yes, MS already has a leg up in this area because they own a bunch of Rare IP that have a history with Nintendo's fanbase any how, like Banjo.
