Thought outside investment in N might create more opportunity for MS, but "I don't think a hostile action would be a good move" pic.twitter.com/nHqQ5mxHbn
The second sentence in Stephen's tweet, yeah no kidding. It's like, the last time they tried that in the 2000's they got laughed out of the room (but they got Rare out of it). And guess what, even if they did? Nintendo could kiss their audience in their native Japan "Good bye!"
And, like I keep saying, Nintendo games on Xbox and PC would get post-Dreamcast quality reception.
(Just this first sentence of THIS "classic" IGN video, but replace it with Mario)
