We will see how long the attitude holds when Xbox contributes 5% of sales and they remember why they stopped to begin with

Exactly. There’s a reason why Xbox was ignored.

I see a future where the Switch 2 gets Day and Date with PlayStation and PC.

Xbox? Please.

Remember when we had the huge gamepass deal, all the ff games came to Xbox and then nothing. The thing is xbox gamers are dude bro shooter. They love hell divers 2, JRPGs on the other hand.

While many believed fhe purple forum ff16 daily threads on sales. Meanwhile nobody spoke of the came that bombed so hard its already forgotten. FF15 on Xbox released the same period.

We have to understand the dynamics at play that publishers want 3 healthy console makers veying for their content.

Almost all stuff from japan bombs on xbox.
Not sure why pubs even bother? Even if xbox pays, they still lose time instead of making new game.

Jim Ryan started the gen with the comment to make PS5 the home of FF, which he did with 7 trilogy and 16.

Them skipping other titles on Xbox is for whatever reason.

The full quote is:
“In the future, Square Enix titles will be released simultaneously on each platform more and more''

Simultaneous releases are pretty cool but will the third FF7 game be included in this I wonder?
Even if you don't have an exclusivity deal preventing a multiplat release with it, the first two games would need to be ported or some Xbox folks might not be able to play it comfortably.
