They are doing what everyone else already does. But I don't like at all this focus they are putting into mobile. They should keep focusing on their console business and using mobile for advertising.

People are reading way too into this. All Kimi is saying is that a lot of people have Facebook and Twitter, so those people will have a lower barrier to entry than they would without the integration. If you have ever used Discuss or something, that's all this is.

Exactly, and it makes a lot of sense to facilitate this link with the wide audience.



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

It works for Sony and Microsoft, who never bothered making big inroads in mobile gaming. Nintendo should compete with Sony and Microsoft instead of trying to be a sh*tty third party developer.
