One of the few games I'm actually excited for. Fell in love ever since they first let us get a taste of the gameplay.
Weren't their persistent rumours around the time of GDC last year, that Nintendo and Microsoft were going to announce some partnership to bring xCloud or Game Pass to Switch? Am I hallucinating?
It even has a page but I'm guessing there was a deal involved or platform priorities do change.
That's...not this game.
Lol this had me dead.LMAO all those posts about it and they didn't bother to even read the description.
It's not even a game!
It's a movie.

Seems weird to not be releasing *just* on PS4 at this point... especially when it was previously announced as coming to PS4 apparently.
Can only speculate as to the why of course, but it's not hard to guess what probably happened tbh.
lmao!isn't that just a page for a film called Carrion that is from this year?
Preload is available but the release date is the 22nd.
Don't mind small teams picking platforms, but can they put it on Mac more often.
Feels like some backdoor shady deals going on with this not coming to PS4 and fall guy not to xbox.
Guessing they're timed
Not available on PS. I'll get it in switch, but damn will that affect the games impact when it's missing from the biggest platform.

So, I'm not saying this necessarily just makes sense. But, xCloud is an online service. Nintendo Online is the means by which you access online services on the Switch. Everyone who wants to access xCloud on the Switch must pay for a Nintendo Online sub as well. Maybe they provide a bundle deal. Nintendo also takes a small portion of every xCloud for Switch sub sold (the numbers may vary - I HIGHLY doubt MS would agree to 30%, but hey who knows maybe). Thus, for absolutely 0 effort on the part of Nintendo, they sell more of their own subs and piggyback off the success of one of their competitors. MS wins too - what a legitimacy booster for xCloud that would be.
probably not but much. indie games (specially 2D ones like this) make most of their money on PC and switch.Not available on PS. I'll get it in switch, but damn will that affect the games impact when it's missing from the biggest platform.
It isn't even the biggest platform for Indies, lmao.Not available on PS. I'll get it in switch, but damn will that affect the games impact when it's missing from the biggest platform.
i think some marketing/exclusivity money from the platform holders is involved in a lot of these cases. yeah sometimes it's about the teams being small and having to prioritize the platforms that are the most important to them, but looking at the devolver direct from yesterday and having fall guys be console exclusive to PS (with an appearance from Shu), Olija being console exclusive to switch with the "uncle from nintendo" skit and this being introduced by phil, i think this is a case of the platform holders having these relationships with indie devs/publishers that i assume benefits both.I don't know why this particular game got everyone's ire re: platforms. If you look at like, practically every Devolver Digital game, none of them released on all 4 platforms at once.
They're still a relatively small publisher working with small devs. It's not a conspiracy.
