So now I can play halo, ori, Mario, Zelda, smash all on 1 system and be able to take all of them on the go. Sounds too good to be true

RUMOR: Microsoft Preparing Xbox App & GamePass for Nintendo Switch (Direct-Feed Games)
- Thread starter Monumma
- Start date
GeForce now streaming works great, hopefully xcloud will be just as good
This will be perfect for switch for multiplatform games that it can't run
Nintendo is about all that's left in the gaming industry that still brings that magic. I can't help but be disturbed by this. Please leave my Nintendo alone Microsoft.
I seriously hope that they can simply port Cuphead because Lord knows that's a game that would be completely ruined by streaming.
I hope this is sarcasm. Nothing is happening to Nintendo dude. They're still making the games you know and love.
They need peeps to create games for xbox, because the servers run on xbox, xbox has to be popular. where are we not contecting?
I doubt on the go. You'll need a good internet connection to stream all those Microsoft games. Still think it's amazing but will be tough on the go
Yea I couldn't play in the middle of no where or while traveling or planes, I meant mostly at hotels and stuff or friends houses
I feel like my daughter just got asked to the prom by the fuckin rich asshole jock kid.
Keep your fuckin hands off her Microsoft!

Not if they port the Halo Collection to Switch instead of streaming it.
unfortunately, now Smash Bros is narrated by Terry Crews and Mario says "Dom! It's fucking me! Mario!"
I really doubt they port that game. Can that game even fit on a cartridge with how big it is. I think porting is gonna be for smaller titles like ori
I can't believe I'm going to be talking about Microsoft games a lot more in my everyday life lol.
Fair enough. That would work perfectly and I'd be more then happy for that possibility
Ugh, won't even try that one.
That being said, I've always been intrigued about Kameo.
This is seriously some Art of War tactics going on here by Phil and Microsoft. I applaud them for such an aggressive move if true.
I always thought Windows would be the battleground for which Microsoft would easily win a console war. Never did I think they would position another console in this fashion. It's a chess piece move, for sure.
What this means is that Microsoft would have the biggest install base with Windows, and their FP games would be seeing release there going forward; AND they would also use a rival console to sell Xbox FP games and subscriptions. They aren't in it anymore to sell the most consoles, they are in it to sell the most software and subscriptions. Dat MAU.

wut? I've been playing Halo for years, gimme that shit on my PC and Switch
i wish hotel internet was good enough for streaming games. I travel constantly for work atm and can barely use netflix after 8pm in a marriott.
I need a 5g hotspot with a high cap asap.
No details on a retail release to share. Just know it is being ported to Switch.
Yep! But you'd still be paying $10 a month to Microsoft, or $120 a year.
Are the games being ported to Switch only going to be in similar size to Ori? Or could we expect some bigger titles?
I see your point - I too was concerned Nintendo would lose their identity with this kind of presence on their consoles. But looking at it on paper, it's a win-win for both. Microsoft gets on more hardware, Nintendo has the benefit of catering to both the Nintendo fan and the more mature MS gamer on their hardware.
I'm an ignorant when it comes to this subject, so why do you think it's bad or how can it be fixed.
I mean, if this is a move against steaming services from Google and the like it makes quite a bit of sense.
Stream our games anywhere, but for the full 4k experience check out our home console.

Pretty damn good. It never goes over-the-top, but it does the thing.
