Nintendo Xbox Partnership Revealed for Switch 2 | Another Game Price Hike Incoming? | News Dose

[@kaligh]

All they have to do is release a deluxe version at $100 and release the standard later. I probably won’t buy it at launch. I have tooooo many games to play.

[@Richard-Ikerd]

From what I’ve seen the most basic conclusion of why Xbox fans don’t like when Xbox supports PS is because not only PS doesn’t support Xbox but also PS blocks games from coming to Xbox, I say that’s a fair sentiment.

[@austinpickens7611]

Exclusives are over bro. Thats the reason why Sony has lost all direction and is essentially in free fall. MS could see the writing on the wall and started pivoting. And if games do end up costing 100 dollars it’ll just sink Sony further.

[@Seth9047]

​@@austinpickens7611Sony may shrink the gap between the launches of its PlayStation exclusives and PC ports Company president Hiroki Totoki suggested in a post earnings call Q&A session that he wants PlayStation to go aggressive on improving our margin performance with multiplatform games playing a significant role He clarified in the talk that by multiplatform he meant on PlayStation and PC not Xbox or Switch

[@Seth9047]

​​@@austinpickens7611In the past we wanted to popularize consoles and a first party title’s main purpose was to make the console popular Totoki said in the Q&A This is true but there’s a synergy to it so if you have strong first party content not only on our console but also other platforms like computers a first party game can be grown with multiplatform and that can help operating profit to improve so that’s another one we want to proactively work on

[@Seth9047]

It's not only Sony Microsoft does it too GSC Game World developer of stalker 2 said it will not be launching on PS5 meaning it will be exclusive to PC and Xbox Series X/S there are currently no plans to port the game to PlayStation

[@kevinlachance669]

The more games are raised in price, the less games I can buy a year. These game companies will lose even more sales each time they release a game. Let's say the next Assassin's Creed is $80. I think they will lose 20% of the people that would have bought it and that's with a lot of games. Ever since the games went up to $70 I've been more careful about what I buy and when I buy it. Raising prices cause people to not buy a product so I understand people think GTA will sell but at some point, the price is too much. I know they plan to have each player spend $60 or more in game to buy vehicles and stuff which is why we should not spend $100 on it. Stop supporting these companies and wait for sales. There are few games that need to be bought right away for $70.

[@Him41190]

Quality not quantity

[@xcrack6364]

Exactly. I will definitely be buying far fewer games. They need to go back to smaller scope 8-9 hour (replayable) type games. Cost a lot less to make, therefor being able to sell games at $40-$50 again.

I’ve invested in a PS2 and stocking up on older titles. New games I’m perfectly fine waiting on because 90% of them launch broken regardless.

[@hardcoregammer1964]

I don’t worry about price hikes because I’ll only pay what I think the game is worth. My backlog is long so I have no issue with waiting on price drops. Like automobiles, all games aren’t equal. Any developer thinking they can charge a high price just because another developer did would more than likely be in for a rude awakening. Again…all games aren’t equal (even if they’re good games).

[@stewarde17]

already buy less games with $70 price tag $80 hell no. Only thing I fear is that they get rid of physical with next gen consoles and with that gaming platforms will regulate prices as they have cable and cell phones. You can already see this with current digital only games 40% 50% more expensive than other game in their same year.

[@escanorflex7201]

If they raise prices im done with buying games, emulation here i come!

[@Alien_Highjinx]

Another reason for all these “modern” games costing so much to make… If you watch the credits play when you finish a game… there are so many redundancies with in the development & i dont see how they need so many. I just watched a video yesterday about SUPER MARIO WORLD… the game was on a cartridge (which has chips that cost to produce) the game was fun & long - it was only 4mb is size… these companies need to realize “GOOD” games just need to be fun to play!

[@aizentaicho82]

I'd ratyer they remade resident evil 1. Its by far the oldest of them, even the first remake came out 23 years ago.

[@alpha-boss]

Rare Replay should be on the list and Gears of war collection!...Come on Microsoft make it happen!..

[@MajesOnTheXbox]

If the games are 100$ you can expect record low sales

[@nathanwhillas]

Could we be reading into the Microsoft Partnership with Nintendo too much? Couldn't a lot of it be in reference to Minecraft?

[@dannystaten5701]

I don’t love the price hike, but in fairness, I remember the snes cartridge for ffvi (ff3 US at the time) costing $60, and that was back when dinosaurs roamed the earth. Adjusting for inflation and that was an expensive game. The game market is overdue for adjusting for years and years of inflation. I think it should be more of a game-by-game basis than we currently see.

[@justadictatorridingonanuke3714]

I believe if games cost 40 to 50 quid they'll sell way more. I was hesitant to buy Elden Ring because i knew it was difficult and didnt know whether id like it or not. However, the full price was 50 quid so I was much more willing to give it a go and now have bought all of their previous souls games (except Sekiro) and my mates were also more willing to buy the game from my recommendation because of the lower price. On the other hand, I really enjoyed Astros playroom and would love to give Astrobot a go but I absolutely cannot justify the price tag for the length of the game id be getting.

[@christonchev9762]

i still see ppl asking for games like AC 2-3/brotherhood and so on but 1 thing they do not understand is while those games were/are good in the current market they won't sell and Publishers will always prize them atleast at 50$ and is it worth to pay 70$ for games like Hellblade 2(even if the games are good)? firstly most of the GTA fans will wait on a sell/discount and not spend 100$ + for the Base Game and second the game will sell much less

[@turtleanton6539]

GTA ia literally never on sale

[@TickledPickle]

To all of my fellow Xbox fanboys, we have got to let go of this platform rivalry. Imagine if all companies have to follow their example and now you can play every game you ever dreamed of on your favorite console and not worry about where else that game may be at. Now imagine the surplus of money every company will accumulate in a short period of time once they taste that new idea. Mind-blowing creativeness and perfection of controls will emerge again. Once companys start nailing down those Basics they'll start doing truly Innovative ( maybe even create a new style game that matches all of our favorite most fluid games together in one) like i was used to a long time ago. Xbox is my favorite console but Super Nintendo and Playstation 1 are my favorite consoles of all time

[@jug-a-nutstherandomizertom2598]

I think the issue is it's rivals wouldn't be as nice under any reason Even as muti platform service they would make only one version, on PlayStation, actually viable

I actually love XBox supporting the Switch. In today's gaming, many of us have multiple systems, and the "system wars" attitude is nearly dead. I have no problem with MS bringing their games over.

[@jurassictyrantkingYT]

With all the rumors that Sony could be Porting some other PS4 games to Nintendo switch 2 it's definitely going to be interesting to see if Sony actually does it, and with Sony burning cash just for developing live service games it wouldn't surprise me if we saw Horizon zero Dawn or even God of War 4 or The Last of Us Part 1 on NS2. Halo, Gears, Black Ops 6, & Doom the Dark Ages wouldnt surprise me if those games were coming to Nintendo switch 2 to make up for that loss in cash.

[@daRealB-Rex]

putting Black Ops 6 on Switch would confuse me since the game doesn’t work without an internet connection. Also the massive file size might be too much for the Switch even with compression. But we’ll see.

[@jurassictyrantkingYT]

@daRealB-Rex we don't know the specs of the Nintendo switch 2 and since Microsoft is going to be at the event it's most likely Third-Party games will most likely be online except for Nintendo games.

I already feel like Switch 2 is gonna have a banger library and it's not even out yet. Especially since it's BC with Switch 1.

[@hybridvigga]

Microsoft DID say that they would be bringing COD to Nintendo platforms. Chances are they will still be supporting Xbone and PS4 for the next few CODs, so a Switch 2 version is not a big ask technically speaking, just with much lower res textures using DLSS to scale up to whatever the screen supports. And hey, Phil also said that they wanted to add Steam, Epic, GOG and "OTHER" online game stores to the next Xbox. After those three he mentioned by name, the only other two I can think of are PSN and Nintendo online, and I don't think it's gonna be PSN. Docked versions of Mario Kart and Zelda sold digitally on the Next-Box anyone? Nintendo don't have a stand alone home console of their own, and selling the games on XBox wouldn't touch Switch console sales (and without a Switch cartridge slot on the next-Box, people would have to double dip on the games if they owned both consoles.) **EDIT - If they just let you have the Nintendo online store, Nintendo still get to keep all the money and don't have the 30% licensing fee for their Next-Box sales, same way Steam wouldn't have to pay anything.**

[@MichelleAlexandria-EM]

I'd rather Xbox put some new games that don't have the "emotional attachment" that people have. So games like Avvowed, or new Activision and Bethesda games. Keep Ms Studios Games 1st Party or Timed Exclusives. Than putting their Main IP like Halo. It just leads to a LOT of drama for players that won't support these games. Who would care about a 10 yr old Halo, Forza or Gears ? That is your brand identity. I personally don't care, but I u derstand why people would be upset.

[@conkersquirrel8872]

That said, I find some playstation fans really annoying with their console wars and feeling so superior to the rest.

Price hike is fake news, games are cheaper than ever these days with new games getting heavily discounted usually after a month or two. GTA6 might cost more than the standard $70 but so what. Street Fighter II launched in the US on the Super Nintendo for $79.99. All future versions was sold at $50 but the original? I'll never forget. Went to a Toys R Us and they had the tag. Shocked the shit out of me... and then I was like, Well that's cheap. I would go to the local movie theater to play that game and they would kick us out if we didn't buy a ticket.

@@daRealB-Rex I find the "anti-consumer" argument these days mostly just boils down to people making excuses for themselves stealing software 😂 Also, no chance we're getting Gamepass on Switch 2, but it makes sense that Microsoft will be trying to keep themselves relevant by porting titles for purchase. Personally, I have no interest in paying a subscription for games anyway, TV/movie streaming has shown us we can't trust private companies with our media libraries. And particularly for indies, it feels good to support their hard work when purchasing their games.

@@mildhoof Fair assessment. I buy my favorite games on disc but don’t mind playing games through a subscription.

"Partnership?" Lol. The cope is strong.

[@versatilestylegamers3874]

I wont be paying 100 if clowns don't pay that price they will need to change things

[@nonchalant2295]

don't be surprised if that Xbox /Nintendo partnership is to have gamepass on switch very possible now

[@daRealB-Rex]

i doubt it, especially since Nintendo has their own sub service and they wouldn’t want to miss out on their 30% cut from sales of games.

[@KyleSetFire]

​@@daRealB-Rex Ah yes because a 100% cut of nothing is way better than a 30% of something. Sound logic.

[@nonchalant2295]

@@daRealB-Rex they can get 30% from gamepass

[@daRealB-Rex]

@@nonchalant2295 That’s not how it works. The whole point of subscription services is the operator of the service wants to take home the lion’s share of the revenue, which is why Game Pass hasn’t shown up on Steam, PlayStation, or Switch yet. It might cut into the store owner’s profits.

[@daRealB-Rex]

@@KyleSetFire What are you trying to say here? I’m saying the economics of Game Pass on Nintendo don’t make sense. Nintendo stands to gain nothing from it so they wouldn’t let it happen.
