read from nintendo life lol:

Xbox president Sarah Bond recently said that console exclusives is an "antiquated" concept, noting that the "biggest games in the world are available everywhere". This statement comes as the brand continues to push its "This is an Xbox" marketing campaign to promote gaming across multiple devices.

Not everyone agrees, of course, and ex-Blizzard president Mike Ybarra is seemingly quite against the idea. In a post on social media, he simply said "Someone go tell Nintendo that exclusives are antiquated".

When another user challenged this statement, Ybarra doubled down and explained that Nintendo has thrived on console exclusivity, deeming the company's strategy of "risk and return" a big success:

"Nintendo has continually dominated with outstanding games. Sure some platforms flopped, but they always took risk and came back very strong.

"It is the opposite of antiquated. It is risk and return."

Honestly that's the only thing I like about Nintendo, I prefer if we still had console exclusives because it gave you a reason why you picked a specific console over another. This is why I think the Xbox brand will stop making consoles, there's really no reason for Microsoft to make a new one if they claim that you should be able to play their games on other platforms. And this is coming from someone who prefers to play his Xbox Series S over his PS5.
