Reply to Have had a Playstation since PS3...should I finally cave and get an Xbox also? If so, which one? by threemoons_nyc
IMO it really boils down to if there are games on Xbox that you really want to play and can't get on PS. That and if you have the time to split between games on multiple systems. That last thing is why I choose to stay with XBox for the time being, at least. I have a PS3, but I almost never finished games on that console because so much of my time was being spent on my 360 or XB1.

That last point is why I really like Gamepass. I've wasted a lot of money on games I didn't wind up sticking with.

Reply to comment by wworldbosss in i really want to know. why do playstation payers act so hostile towards xbox players? by Immediate_Sun_8436
It's almost like Microsoft is running a business or something. How dare they maintain a revenue stream that enables them to financially support their network and invest in updates and improvements! I bet if there's money leftover, they pay their shareholders dividends. Those nefarious bastards!

I don't think Super Mario 64 can be played online with others, but Mario Kart 64 can. I don't have this premium subscription myself. Just the basic one.

Yes, but to do so requires the premium Nintendo Online subscription, and you're limited to a selection of games, not the whole catalog. There is online multiplayer enabled. The same subscription also gives you access to a selection of Sega Genesis games, too.

Reply to What is something unannounced that you wish is in a secret gaming development stage? by Gay_Charlie
Nintendo working with Microsoft to allow Switches to work as Gamepass Ultimate streaming devices. It'd be nice, but I'm not holding my breath on this one. A guy can dream, though, right?

Funny thing about the "affordability" of a Switch is all the money that's saved on buying the console gets burnt up on games that never get any significant discounts.

If my Switch was my only console, I'd be upset with the purchase. It makes a great supplementary gaming device, but it leaves a whole lot to be desired as a primary gaming device. In your case, if you're not interested in Nintendo IPs, there's almost no reason to have a Switch. Any other system will play multiplatform games better than a Switch and won't have as janky of an online play system.

I don't care about new physical games, I just want to be sure I can play all the old ones I already own, so I care more about backward compatible hardware.

Just to be sure, we should arm the guns with little guns of their own.
