Huh?
"Sony’s PlayStation 4 was the best-selling console and remains the top platform year-to-date."
"Nintendo also sold the most consoles with its NES Classic."
Well, which is it???
I don't think it's so much a case of developers ignoring it, more than it wasn't until recently that the systems supported it. Xbox One just got 1440p output support in April.
That's the entire premise of Gamepass, you don't need to buy/own the games to play through them. At the same time though, you're not spending $20-60 a pop to own the games and enjoy them. You're spending $10/month to enjoy them.
If it's going to be a cross-gen title, that still means it needs to target current gen.
It says "Up to 75% off".

Generated 3.9b last quarter. Keep in mind, this is just for one quarter. The notion that Xbox is "failing" simply because it hasn't sold as many systems is a false one from a business perspective. Xbox is still very much a successful brand for Microsoft.

From the Steam update:
"I bought the game already. Since it’s free now, will I be compensated?
If you own Darwin Project, you’ll receive the Founder’s Pack containing 2 Legendary sets, 3 Legendary Axes, 3 Legendary Bows, a full jumpsuit collection, and 5 Fan Gifts. It will be added to your inventory on Tuesday, April 24."
The reward for doing the very simple Xbox Game Pass quests the last few months has been a month of Gold. So essentially I've gotten 3-4 months of Gold for the last 3-4 months of Game Pass.
Misleading title. The one that appeared early was a mistake and was never supposed to be the icon. So they changed it because they accidentally used the wrong one, not because owners didn't like it.
"You Can't Wait for Reviews Anymore
This strips the consumer of a two-week cushion of security and buyer's confidence."
This isn't true at all. You can just wait to open your copy if you want to read the reviews first. This has always been the case with physical games. Don't open it, and you can still return it. Not that hard.
Which they state in the article and follow it up with, "this is the last day, if you want it shipped for release day".
Clickbait title, then basically admission of clickbait title. This is getting out of control.
What does this have to do with Switch?
There are plenty of USB A to USB C cables out there. How do you think people connect their USB C phones to chargers with USB ports or their PCs?
It's on par with the 3DS. For a plane, you can just plug it in to charge it. Most planes come with USB or AC ports now. For the ones that don't, a battery bank should do the trick.
Well they can set the pricing to whatever they want, within the 30% cut that they take, but obviously this means they will lose more money. It's not like other retailers such as Best Buy or Amazon, who use it as a way to get you to the store where a lot of people buy other things as well. The Xbox Store just sells Xbox Games and people will go there just to buy one game more than not. Whereas with Best Buy and Amazon, they can lower the price and make up the difference from people spendin...
Publishers set the price on the digital store. Microsoft says they are going to have a sale and the publisher opts in and sets the sale price for their titles. It's not about Microsoft pricing competitively or not. It's about the publishers setting the price that they want to sell their product for.
In all honesty, I didn't even know there were issues. I played games single player and multi player, join parties, sent a few messages, and some other things throughout the last few days. Which is the timeframe that Xbox Live has apparently been "down". Was it down sporadically minutes at a time and I just got lucky and missed those times?
You'd be better off with the 43" Vizio M-Series. It's getting great reviews and offers one of the lowest input lag times available. It's currently on Cnet's best-picture list, which doesn't take price into account. Essentially, they are saying at ~$500, it's better than anything else out there when it comes to picture quality, save for the other televisions on the list.
I've seen the 49" go for as low as $500. I got my 43" for the sa...
You think limited attempts stops brute force attacks? You're the one that clearly doesn't understand security. Many brute force attacks will try a few times an hour, never reaching the limit. Others will try one password against hundreds of thousands of accounts. These are scripts doing all of this, not actual people. A person just needs to start the script, and the computer does all the rest. It's not a physical person sitting at a PC and guessing random passwords over and over. ...
But even according to Piscatella's tweets, he's not talking about Nintendo combined hardware sales. He's still confusing about it though.
In one tweet he says "The NES Classic was June 2018's highest unit-selling hardware platform, while the PlayStation 4 led the market in dollar sales."
But in another he says "Sony's PlayStation 4 was the best-selling console hardware platform in June".
