Lmfao.
Sony is sounding like a Twitter console warrior.
Nintendo's younger audience isn't interested in Call of Duty? The old "Nintendo's audience is full of children" card when Nintendo's own stats say otherwise, Nintendo fans aren't interested in FPS? And c'mon, most of Call of Duty fans started playing the damn thing in their teens, it has a huge young audience despite the age rating, Lol.
The last CoD on a Nintendo console flopped because it was on a flop of a console, the Wii U. It's a tactic sure, not to look cooperative with regulators though, but to be cooperative with regulators, that's the entire point, you cooperate with regulators? Lol.
Such nonsense to claim that Switch may never be able to run Call of Duty considering all the others far more demanding ports it received and the fact that CoD is on freaking mobile too, Lol, also Cloud versions of games exist on Switch already and don't take years to develop. It may be a bit of a risk? But sometimes risks are worth taking instead of focusing strictly on "sensible business decisions".
If I'm making a prediction though, I think CoD will do well on Switch. And Sony is acting like Switch 2 won't ever happen or that Microsoft won't just hire an external porting studio, it isn't going to take as long as they claim to get a Switch version of Call of Duty out.
And Sony, lets be honest, you don't compete aggressively in subscription services or cloud gaming services either so why does it matter that Nintendo doesn't? Either way, Nintendo is growing their business in both those areas so yes it still matters to them that Microsoft is growing theirs too.
