Microsoft has said that they don't see Sony and Nintendo as competition and the acquisitions are not about Sony. (but about Google, Amazon, Apple etc)
Phil Spencer also said he hopes Sony and Nintendo will preserve the gaming ecosystem unlike those others.
- Hamuko 5y agoThe way Phil Spencer has been talking, it seems to me like they're going to start putting all these acquisitions exclusively on the Xbox, so I'm not sure sure about that "don't see them as competition" or "hope to preserve the gaming ecosystem".
- pjerem 5y ago> Microsoft has said that they don't see Sony and Nintendo as competition They all say this and … that’s just marketing/bs. How in the world aren’t they competing ? They are all battling for a limited ressource which is your video game budget.
- rodgerd 5y agoIn the case of Nintendo, they've agreed to support cross-play, which Sony refuse to. And their consoles and brand are very different from XBox. Very few people are buying a Switch instead of an XBox or gaming PC; they're more likely to be buying it as another way of gaming.
- MangoCoffee 5y agoi believe for MS, its all about the Xbox game pass. they need as many games under game pass as possible in order to lure people in to justify paying monthly for game as service.
