  Man, where to start... Are you aware that you can buy games on Xbox as well? They even give you 20% discount for being a Game Pass patron. As for the second half... Xbox makes between 400 to 500 million dollars per month. That's half a billion for average monthly revenue per user. 1 billion every 2 months is stupid money. Also, they have stated numerous times that GP is profitable. Why do you think they doubled and trippled down on it? Now they're making more money by selling on PS stores yes. But I already have IRL buddies jumping ships to PC or Xbox just for Game Pass alone. The service is ridiculously good. Now with an Xbox handheld OTW it's getting crazier with PC exclusive peeps jumping on board. Some of ya'll aren't seeing what Xbox is doing atm, they're literally infiltrating other platforms. And that's not good as well. It will create a monopoly one day. Look at the attached pictures btw. Xbox studios published 11 games this year (Team Ninja is the outlier), Sony studios only 2 on my count so far (Sucker Punch and Bungie is the outlier here). Where do you think Xbox is getting all this money pumping out games at this magnitude? Only Nintendo holds true exclusives. The days of traditional consoles died a year or 2 ago. And this is sad.

  @Kneon The main issue is with Nintendo their first party games rarely go on sale.

  @antdude92 I'm not surprised. Nintendo has a major shovelware problem. They allow this game to be on the eShop and yet games like Neptunia Re;birth, Menhera Farm and others are denied. Know what I call this? Hypocrisy.

  @NextGenPlayer There was a world parts shortage in 2020 thanks to the COVID pandemic. Because of this, both Sony and Xbox struggled to produce enough units to meet demand. That is no longer an issue in 2025, Nintendo has access to it's parts. So I feel like this is an unfair comparison.

  It’s the exact same console, same components… even the same broken controllers that drift. Stick to the switch 1 and give it like 5 years until nintendo actually innovates and makes an original console again.

  @LucarioSplat2 I have the same issue. Not just Ninjala, but other games too on Nintendo Switch 2.

  @FortniteStatus bought a Nintendo Switch 2 and the game has excessive random rubberband lag. Checked on my laptop and switch 1 and the issue doesn’t happen on either of those devices. Any help?

  @ev1dentLEE @Murillos14 @kirawontmiss Yeah? thats what i said? are you reading what i said? The problem is support console price hikes, game price hikes and further pushing the “you don’t own what you buy” narrative more by nintendo having full control to brick your switch anytime they want. shouldnt support that :/

  @sister_wow @NextGenPlayer You mean the one Xbox is trying to artificially induce? Cuz Nintendo has only released one $80 dollar game that isn't an upgrade edition. And Sony/other publishers don't seem to be following suit. They thought they could bait em, and up Game Pass's value. Glad it's not working...

  @OutOfPocketChum @LaprasKnowsBest @ArtistNcs It really comes down to picking your poison. Regardless, Nintendo fans will most likely get it. The best thing anyone can do is just to know what you're buying, what to expect for issues, and so on.

  @Xamoel @sonic_hedgehog If it happens, I hope Crash and Spyro come out on other platforms, and what about PlayStation and Nintendo characters?

  @SomeKirbyFan and it will launch with thousands more games than the switch 2 with 0 fee to pay for ****** online service. 50 dollars a year for limited emulation vs emulating every nintendo game ever minus the one 90$ mario kart game lol

  @charlieINTEL @ethangach That’s the issue facing Microsoft is the cost issue for handhelds with x86 cpus, that at lower power burgers are not as efficient as ARM. To put console games on arm, the whole code needs to be compiled for arm from x86. Nintendo has been the biggest pioneer of ARM gaming.
