Forums - Gaming - Microsoft and Nintendo in dispute?

Most, if not all, of us know that Blue Dragon is coming to the DS.

Next, Golden Eye 007, got canned from XBox Live.

I wonder if they got into a disagreement and canned each other's titles.

Edit: Joystiq on Blue Dragon DS delay and Kotaku on canned 007

No idea, so your saying they are canning BD on DS???

BD is on indefinitely delay. Which is after the news about Golden Eye got canned.



007 was cancelled because of a financial dispute apparantly.



I don't think Blue Dragon DS is on hold... not from anything I've seen. Do you have any source on that? I mean, even if it was, it certainly wouldn't be a Microsoft move to spite Nintendo. Microsoft needs the DS audience, Nintendo doesn't need Microsoft on the DS. The reason they are making Blue Dragon Plus and Viva Pinata DS is to promote the franchises on their console (which weren't very successful... especially Blue Dragon). That's like saying "Well, since I got a paper cut I might as well amputate my finger."

I've never heard anything about BD being canned, and your post doesn't even mention it, not very informative considering the point you're trying to make.



So no Goldeneye for VC then?



Its no Golden Eye for XBLA



Indeed. However, if Goldeneye were to be released on VC, then MS and Nintendo would have to work out an arrangement, given that Microsoft own Rare.

Now that Goldeneye has been canned from XBLA, it doesn't look like it will appear on VC anytime soon.



Thats a shame, because Goldeneye on XBL will probably get a revamped graphics and probably an online capabilities... That can be pretty awesome
