@NEStalgia no I get it. I haven’t been o this board much either but as I don’t have any other way to connect with you. You know your humor is great for stress. Detective Pikachu is my holiday name
@themightyant even if they relented the FPS boost program has been halted.
I really don’t see the Xbox version getting patched. In fact, it feels like the PS5 version getting patched was an oops moment. I guess I’ll be pleasantly surprised if it happens but I don’t see it.
@EvenStephen7 maybe that’s why I’m not really shocked nor upset. Not to mention this is just a thought and you can think anything. It would be weird for a company in this business but to contemplate acquiring Nintendo. It’s the brass ring. Whether you act on it or not is a different story. But so is good business. At the end of the day it’s business :/
Everyone is running with this and people aren’t reading the email nor the actual date of said email. It reads like a bucket list and that’s not very realistic. And it’s old and before other purchases. It’s more like oh that’s nice.
@Titntin and you missed mine the only thing that Capcom and Bandai did differently is not announced who was everyone in the pass but they both announced passes. MK isn’t launching with all the characters ready to go at launch either. Again that’s the only difference. All games have a “deluxe” version with a season pass included.
Literally is the same exact thing it’s just Nether told you who but if you don’t believe me
The only difference is they didn’t say all of them. But that was May 27th the game officially launched June 2nd.
Edit: I’m not condoning it; I’m saying it’s the same for all games the launch including early beta release was the same as well. I don’t get why you are acting like Capcom is the good guy when it’s the same.
@Titntin and you are wrong SF6 has already released 2 fighters from their DLC pass. While Tekken hasn’t announced theirs yet; I don’t think. It’s pretty SOP for fighting games to launch characters passes. Tekken 7 actually had the most season passes compared to MK11 and SF5.
Edit: when I say “announced” it’s been announced as it’s part of the deluxe version but they haven’t said what the first character will be.
Also want to point out I think this new employee Mena is step in the right direction and I do like that they are doing fan event for JP Xbox fans this year.Kudos there.
I wouldn’t expect much here. I would expect the Atlus games already shown to pop up again.
Also it’s not the exclusives that are the issue with Japan. The Japanese market is very old school and requires a lot of boots to the ground work that MS doesn’t really do even in the States.
I’ll give you an example. They don’t have a physical booth at what’s considered the largest Tokyo Game Show in years. That’s the issue. Right there.
Not that Japan is alone, they didn’t have a demo booth for Starfield at Pax Wes either but they had their PC partners pick up the slack They cant do that with Japan. Thus their show is kind of missable.
🤷🏼♀️
@shoeses they still really wouldn’t though. You think Nintendo had a say in whether Square could port OT1 to Xbox? Their answer would have been no. Same with DQ11S BTW
@FatalBubbles the world going to end. I think we agree on something ._. They should have just sold this as a stand alone game and given a discount if your owned the game :/ like Torna.
Y’all better roll the red carpet out for Vanillaware. They ain’t never been here before, and we want them to come back or at least I do
@Cashews @shoeses published doesn’t meant rights. Nintendo published OT outside of Japan. It still came to Xbox. It really depends on a lot of things a far as rights go.
@Kienda actually I don’t think legally they can just charge MS for all these Unity games. At least those made in the past. MS never agreed to pay those fees. Contractually, they never signed anything. It’s like me handing you a bill.
My guess is they are still going to charge the dev the fee and then expect them to get it from MS.
@Tharsman Yeah no worries. There are have been a lot of stupid takes about Xbox and it's fans lately. Like I get criticism, but a Start Screen? Or a Cult? You can't just say you think this might be uninspired but you have no evidence yet? I don't know. It's weird.
@NEStalgia Oh it's not really cloud it never has been, it's mobile. They want a significant presents on mobile phones. Cloud isn't putting them there yet, but Candy Crush and COD mobile will. Does that make sense?
@Titntin The issue isn't the remedy for me, but the fact the CMA didn't suggest it. And now they are back to "Phase 1" on the "new deal". Also, judging from the wording it doesn't sound like these will appease them either. I'm highly skeptical that MS still won't have to involve the CAT again. Nor that CMA won't find something else to take issue with.
@NEStalgia your the reason I used the guide button now. But yeah I think the guide is where they want to direct people but people like the main area. But MS needs to do a better job explaining the guide button.
@NEStalgia that’s the issue. They want people to use the guide button but people insist on using the desktop. Like people who don’t use folder on their PC.
@kihaennem yeah so Assassins creed is not an indie game. I mean there are several others but that’s the big one. Speaking of Indies Slime Rancher 2 is great game
To be clear these are the same people two and half years ago that announced they weren’t making a Series S version. And in fact, they haven’t said anything about a Series S version. I guess no one told them it’s mandatory.
Anyway, I would not waste much air on them. If anyone has actually read through all the Twitter comments they actual said they’d have to put load screens in the Xbox version. Which the Xbox SSD is not that much slower. Then they referenced Ratchet and Clank which we know now can run on an HDD.
So no I wouldn’t give them any air at all. Plus their game was announced 3 years ago.

Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer Was Dead Serious About Wanting To Acquire Nintendo In 2020

Re: Xbox's Phil Spencer Was Dead Serious About Wanting To Acquire Nintendo In 2020
@Kaloudz Sure but I don’t think buying Nintendo is one of them.
@themightyant and people don’t actually read before freaking out. People need to calm down and read the full emails. -_-
All well I don’t want to hear Xbox isn’t serious about Japan now.

Re: Review: Mortal Kombat 1 - 30 Years In The Making, But Does It Live Up To The Legacy?
@Titntin they aren’t available yet! Where are getting that? They aren’t out yet.
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about, but here:
https://www.gamerevolution.com/guides/946759-mortal-kombat-1-kombat-pack-release-dates-when-does-mk1-dlc-come-out?amp
It’s exact same thing as the other games. Again they just told who was in the pack but you can’t play them yet.

Re: Microsoft Announces Plan To Sell Activision Cloud Gaming Rights To Ubisoft
@NEStalgia no they have a direction. They want to make their own App Store that was leaked a while ago. That’s the mobile part.
Granted @Tharsman mentioned a ton of other stuff but ultimately they want content control at the end of the day. Thats kind of what they are after.
