I actually wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft saying you'll be able to play Xbox games on the Switch 2, implying that Game Pass is coming to Switch 2, was the thing that finally kicked their asses and gear and made them realize they were being fucking stupid trying to have so much control while Microsoft is out here with even tighter controls and a cheaper model (in a lot of gamers' eyes at least, those who don't care about things like longevity of studios or actual ownership of a product as opposed to rental licensing).

Sorry for the run-on sentence I don't feel like fixing it.
