Gamepass and live on Switch - A repeat of the past or something new?

in Nintendo Discussion 20 hours ago

sales2099 said: Cerebralbore101 said: Gamepass on Switch would be the ultimate combo, but Nintendo won't allow for it. They want people buying Nintendo games, and that isn't going to happen as much if Switch owners have hundreds of free games on Gamepass. I don’t think that will be an issue. Nintendo 1st party games have a certain quality, whimsy and charm that can...

DonFerrari said: chakkra said: Well, the guy is about to give me plenty more new games to play for $10 a month. The real question would be why shouldn't I "defend" him? Defending his decision to buy the studio and even make it exclusive is plenty fine. To defend his fake speaches is something else. But I don't understand why his speech bothers you this much; I...

That would be like 6M sales in the final three months of the year with the biggest new title being Age of Calamity. With enough Animal Crossing bundle sales, Fortnite bundle sales,...

I was going to say that it should, seeing as these systems are basically covering both console and handheld markets, but then I remembered that Wii U+3DS never did it, so yeah, I think this is impressive indeed. ...

DroidKnight said: Bandorr said: There are several huge steps between "I see nothing that interests me" and "This is an abysmal launch imho. People should be on twitter giving Sony Ceo a hard time about it." Even the "abysmal" part would be a couple steps difference. But you went further with suggesting people harrass someone. "I don't like it" is a subjective opinion. "This is...

KratosLives said: chakkra said: Fair enough, but the thing you seem to fail to realize is that everybody is different and have different tastes. Demon Souls is the reason FOR YOU, but for others will be Spiderman, for others might even be Sackboy, for others will be the ability to play Cyberpunk or COD in 1440p/60FPS, etc, etc. That's why I find it highly distasteful when someone...
