I expect the heat death of the fucking universe gonna happen before a PC port
I gave up hope on that shit and if it happens now I'll consider it too little too late
I'll end up buying the next Xbox if they really keep playing nice with Nintendo.
MS almost makes me wish I chose them as my second console instead of my PS4. Just could not afford to own all 3 plus a PC.
But if Switch gets love, I might just want to crossplay my Xbox games on a more powerful hardware in the future

Guys can you imagine if this hadnt leaked and Nintendo showed up at MS conference or MS showed up on the E3 direct. I realize you could never keep this a secret though given how many people this must go through
Hmmm. What if the Nintendo Switch will be the Xbox 360 Handheld Microsoft never had? Imagine that, playing Xbox 360 Ports on the Switch and streaming Xbox One games too.
Wow. Love Microsoft and Nintendo.

People need to stop seeing Xbox as a game console, and finally understand that it now is a PLATFORM.
Microsoft doesn't care if you play on an Xbox console, a PC, of now, possibly, on a Switch.They want you to buy and play their games, be it by direct sales or by the subscription model.
This is a total paradigm change. I understand that people here are reluctant to accept this kind of shift, but it's here to stay, and I believe it's going to make the industry better.

This reminds me in a warped way of Howard Lincoln's poem to Sega's Tom Kalinske.

According to Windows Central, they wanted to but Sony refused because it competes with PS Now.
If that's the case does sound a bit like the Steam Link vs iOS App Store situation with Apple. reason of competing for sales. But in this case would be the PS catalog vs MS catalog on a Sony device.

I think jeuxvideo are pretty confident about what they are claiming. We heard report about Xbox Live few weeks ago. So those recent just echo other reports. I think E3 will start at GDC this year :)

Yes, but you should still take it with a pinch of salt. Nothing is confirmed until it's confirmed.
That said, I do think it's true and am excited for it.
It'll be crazy if it happens. It'll be hilarious if it doesn't. I won't believe it till I see it.
I'm the opposite here as an owner of all 3. If I can play Xbox games on my switch there's no reason to own the Xbox anymore.
Man... there will be major meltdowns if this Nintendo x Microsoft partnership ends being false.
man these rumors are getting crazy
I honestly don't know how a Halo, Gears, or Forza game would work on the Switch without it being a port of a 360 entry.

I don't believe any of this for a second until the two companies announce it themselves. It sounds crazy.
I don't see why. This potential partnership is basically a bonus for both Nintendo and MS at this point. Both companies are headed in the right direction regardless if this is all false. Nintendo is shaping up to have a tremendous 2019 and MS is doing all the right things to give themselves a good chance to take on PS5.
I am trying to be the same, but that's like 5-10 rumours from different sources now isn't it ?
Unless they are all building off the hype of each other's fake leaks, that's pretty hard to ignore
It'll definitely be a 360 port. And initially it'll be just Halo, specifically Master Chief Collection. Jeuxvideo was only able to confirm Ori and Cuphead but I'm guessing Halo is among the first MS games on Switch as MS would want to test XBL cross play online on a traditional game.
I wouldn't be surprised if Gears 360 collection are also on the way.

When you have so many different sources. It's clear something is going on. And we're not talking about anonymous 4chan or Reddit sources here ( with all due respect ).
