Holy shit…

Oh, it was already dead in the water.

It’s like being handed a MP3 player but being told you’ll go to jail for playing music you ripped yourself.

Which is pretty fucked up logic.

Of course. We’re just pointing out a potential niche use.

Yup. All that effort just to be good at basic code scaffolding.

Edit: it was due to feature creep

Understandable.

Game cards seem like a tone-deaf attempt to appeal to those who just want a physical copy.

Most of the third-party titles are yesterday’s games, as already mentioned, and the newer ones are still in development. Meaning, Nintendo’s games are pretty much doing all the heavy lifting. And given the price versus buying power ratio for some games, the launch comes off as a bit mid, to say the least.

Hopefully things will improve in the future.

Same. I tried looking through it and was extremely confused by what I was reading.

They say ownership has changed hands but that it isn’t a corporate “exit”. The whole announcement is extremely vague on the details with the only names given are two people.

And I literately just started using them for Daggerfall. Really frustrating.

Yes. I feel sorry for the developers. This requirement by Microsoft is ridiculous.

Uh, huh… Glad we agree. Though, I’m still gonna take this statement with a grain salt now.

A minute ago you agreed with my statement.

If Microsoft continues to make exceptions, then they might as well not even have the stupid rule.

Small, yes, but it’s not like I’m not expecting it. As someone who did not write the article, I have no idea what I should replace it with that would sound better and meet everyone’s expectations.

This is not the first time I’ve been asked about headlines. So, yeah, it can get midly frustrating.

Note to self: don’t post Xbox articles next time.

I feel sorry the developers.
