Xcloud I can see, Game Pass native? Absolutely not. Also good luck to whoever studio takes it upon themselves to port games like Starfield and Avowed.
Or did you mean solely streaming?
No, this is Nintendo taking advantage of their customers lile they always do.

Streaming of course.
Yeah, anytime someone talks Game Pass on non Xbox or PC it means streaming.

Got ya. But didnât reputable sources already say this wasnât happening?
Yeah, my bad on that.
I just canât see it happening though, Game Pass isnât only XGS titles but also plentiful third parties which people arenât going to buy for Switch anymore.
I mean we have documents that said Phil was really trying, and a few people said that Nintendoâs not intersted, but there has to be something between Xbox + Nintendo according to :nickthink:
The people saying there is something between Xbox and Nintendo has explicitly said it is not Game Pass on Switch.
If NSO was priced that way because of it, they⌠probably would have announced what youâre getting for the price.
Nick never said it wasnât GamePass.
In fact, he didnât say anything other than itâs not a game, and itâs not the Rare N64 games on NSO.
What else could it be?
By the way, I only just not got caught up with the Nintendo news. Is this different news than what they announced during their Direct where they said N64 games and such are coming but NSO will cost more if you want that?
You could always take Phil Spencerâs word for it
âWe have no plans to bring it [Xbox Game Pass] to any other kind of closed platforms right now, mainly because those closed platforms donât want something like Game Pass,â Spencer said.
Itâs just the outrageous pricing for playing N64 and Genesis games.
Thatâs the news.

If the price hike for Switch Online was due to Xcloud/Game Pass implementation, then they wouldâve announced that alongside the price hike.
The price hike is what itâs advertised for. Some N64 & Genesis titles. Itâs just Nintendo being greedy & thinking they can get away with it. & letâs be honest, they probably will.

This is exactly what it is. Starts with the N64 and Genesis games then it continues on with a price hike for gameboy games, gamecube vc and such. Literally had Nintendo sell out $50 N64 and Genesis controllers in 2021. Ridiculous.
Nintendo doesnt give a shit about game pass and I wish people here would accept that. PLEASE.
Yea @ProgStopper give it up
