 Hey everyone, welcome back to Nintendo Prime and I actually think our next video is going to be debuting on a new set but this one couldn't because of what I need to show you guys. This is something that I'm almost in disbelief but it actually makes a lot of sense and you guys see the title. One of Nintendo's major competitors out there might be preventing games already announced for Nintendo Switch to come to Nintendo Switch and one of these games was even shown in a Nintendo Direct and yet mysteriously we've heard nothing from sense and it might be because a certain competitor with Nintendo is just really trying to hot box Nintendo especially given their placement in the Japanese marketplace. Now that being said, before we get into the rest of this video, this video has been sponsored by Into the AM. Into the AM makes premium print shirts just like this one that you can get 10% off on right now using code Nintendo Prime 10 or clicking the link down in the description at Into the AM.com slash Nintendo Prime 10. They have blended teas, they have printed teas like this and all of them have been pre-trunk so you don't need to worry about the fit and finish. You buy the shirt, if it fits you, sweet, you can not worry about it shrinking like some of us bigger fellas sometimes worry about. So yeah, I really like these shirts, they're super super soft and I wear them all the time. So thank you so much Into the AM for sponsoring this video and let's get into the rest and the rest here is about something that came up on the podcast yesterday. So we have a Nintendo Prime podcast we do, we have a new co-host, a new mostly permanent co-host. Every now and then we have a guest, we'll stick someone else in. But we're talking about Mike Perez and Nintendo Academy and last week he gave us some juicy details that led to a video and this time he did again and that is because of some research he did. But you know what, I'm going to have him talk first, I'm going to play the clip from the podcast and then we'll discuss what he means. Yeah, giving up your independence. There's another there's also rumors or but these rumors are so old that there's this other company who plays good with nobody who actually plays the Pays developers under the table to delay game launches on other devices and there's two games who two games who were supposed to come from the switch announced on Nintendo Direct that all of a sudden say oh we can't come to the switch yet because we're working on this and this and this and that. But when you look at where they are they're at Sony. So I'm like Sony still has a grudge with Nintendo. I made a video with that topic, okay, because I pointed that out. Why is it that? You go like your video in the chat, you're good, the people know. Go find it. I added there's a comment from one of the teams from somebody who works in the one of the teams for one of these games that I mentioned. This is news to me too. So I kind of want to I might have to make a video on this. That's a fine. Yeah, that's one reason why I want you to link your videos. I don't have to go find it. Let me go find it. But when I go find it, yeah, they let the comments saying I know everybody's everybody's excited. How are you? I know everybody's excited about this game coming to the platform. I will look forward to bringing it to blah blah blah. But something something something I'm like, well, you you didn't really deny what I said just kind of, you know, talk to you. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Run around the absolute PR going around town. The absolute PR statement. All right. So obviously, that's a pretty serious accusations that Sony is preventing two games in particular coming to the switch and those two games are fall guys and get an impact. Now, let's actually look at the video he made this is the video and the comment he's referring to. And it's quite interesting when you look through the comment section and you're trying to find this comment and I'm not actually seeing anything unless it's this person right here. We know we know the news regarding Nintendo Switch trademark and Xbox is highly anticipated. We're finalizing development and though it isn't within this update, it's still coming until then we're super excited to enable this cross platform functionality or existing platforms as a first step. And I checked out this guy on YouTube and I'm not really sure who he is. He joined back in 2020 and it looks pretty interesting, maybe. So I don't know if this comment is really a big deal. This could just be some kid. So he might have read a little bit too much in the comment. What he's not reading too much into is the official websites for Genshin Impact and Fall Guys used to list Nintendo Switch as supported platforms and listed it right along with everything else. So on the Fall Guys website, it used to be up here in the get it on your favorite platform except you couldn't click it because it wasn't available yet and it used to be down here listed right next to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, PC and there used to be a Nintendo Switch logo down here and they are gone now. So it's Fall Guys no longer coming to Switch, Genshin Impact as well. You see PS4, the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store and Windows as PC. They're not seeing the Nintendo Switch stuff here and that used to be listed here as well. Both of these websites, it has been removed. So when you put two and two together that both of these games are obviously on PlayStation and one of them was actually also announced for Xbox so we can't even use the power excuse me, Switch is not powerful enough so the Xbox series is not powerful enough for Fall Guys or Genshin Impact. That's a little suspicious don't you think? You can use the fact that both of these games are actually really popular on PlayStation and the top 10 most played games every week and are both really popular in Japan in particular where Sony has a hard time maintaining, you know, the stuff, the maintaining fan, maintaining relevancy compared to Switch. It's just interesting to look at, interesting to think about. There have been rumors about this before, Sony does have a long winded history of paying for exclusivity or allowing exclusivity to a certain point where it ends up not mattering by the time it comes to other platforms. These games were announced for Switch in Nintendo Direct's so clearly Nintendo thought that it was a pretty much a done deal in coming soon and unfortunately it looks like they may not come at all or by the time they come Switch might not be relevant anymore because it could be 2025 or something so this is rather unfortunate if this is true again. Speculation, you can't say that it's true 100%. These sort of business dealings happen behind the scenes all the time without anyone actually announcing it so at the end of the day we're just going to have to sit here and wait and hope and pray we get an update on this stuff which I don't think is forthcoming so you guys let me know what you think about this. Do you think Sony's guilty? Do you think that they had anything to do with this or do you think that this is just happy circumstance and it's really just sad that neither one of these games appear to be coming to Switch anymore? I don't know. I know that I'm just a smidge sad because I do think both these games are well worth a play. Anyways, folks, I am Nathaniel Robeljass from Nintendo Prime.
