Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa discussed the possibility of a next-generation console, whether it'll have a 2-year gap between announcement and release like the Switch, and pricing, including that of The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom.
Ybarra, who spent two decades at Microsoft, acknowledged concerns about the future of Xbox hardware by fans once more first-party games go multiplatform.
As an xbox guy, If porting some exclusives to sony and nintendo allows MS to continue offering gamepass day one, I'm all for it. Port them all if you need to.
In addition to catching a bit of flak from the former PlayStation boss, Phil Spencer has also come under criticism for the recent Xbox game studio closures.
“Phillip W. Spencer III:"Xbox’s aim with Call of Duty is to give players choice, not "do slimy platform things" that make one option more appealing."
Yet Xbox were the ones who started this exclusive crap with CoD during the 360/PS3 era. This guy is something else.
Yep, some of their fans also parrot this hypocritical line, MS started and popularised that trend, then spent 80 billion.
Pot kettle black.
Every word out of MS can be flipped on its head to reveal the truth.
Phil was and is the right man for the company he is working for. Slimy..through and through. The Persons as well as the company itself.
POS boss for a POS brand with POS fans, that's what xbox is.
So good to see them begging for Sony and Nintendo money and making all their games multiplatform, they are the ultimate losers and got what they deserve.
Phil Spencer surely must have the world record in the amount of times a CEO can put his foot in his mouth throughout his career. I honestly wonder why Microsoft even lets him do interviews at all at this point.
The latest Switch firmware update kills off support for the Elon Musk-owned social media company.
Social garbage should be abandoned altogether.. the world is stupid since these things got introduced
I would say YouTube was more to blame for this weird unrest we are seeing at the minute. That platform has given license to some of the stupidest people to build advice channels for kids growing through their formative learning years. It's no wonder there are so many incels around.
It’s for posting content like game captures, not responding to your boo’s pool pictures.
But F twitter anyway
correction, was a cesspit,
now more of just a swamp / everglades / marshland
Pretty good Q&A info, but would have been nice to get more. Anyone could have guessed these answers, if you think about it.
Basically no plans at all to announce new hardware it seems. No plans at all for a discount for the handheld despite manufacturing costs going down. Charging an extra $10 in the USA for Zelda TOTK is not a sign of new pricing. More expensive game pricing will be decided on a case by case basis. Hoping Mario movie can bring in new fans for Nintendo.
