Microsoft (GDC Panel) | No Plans for Xbox Live SDK for Switch Yet, but Expect More Ports like Cuphead to Release with XBL Support over the Next Year

A lot of the bigger games in that set are dependant on the Xbox 360 emulator.
So when MS just brings all of it's games to all platforms because who cares about hardware they just want your money.
Ah good point. Hopefully there's an alternative to the current version. It'd obviously be very popular.
Rare Replay + DK64, Diddy Kong Racing etc would be a huge success on Switch even with no 360 games included. MS is leaving a ton of money on the table

They just have to port Viva Piñata to Switch so all the fools who say that Rare floundered after leaving Nintendo can eat delicious Crowla.
wasteland 2 and minecraft are already on the switch. hellblade, pillars 2 are on their way. ori is rumored.
and stuff like battletoads seem obvious.
Master Chief Collection makes a lot of sense imo. Switch should be able to run those games and it would boost the online player count significantly. Gives the Switch a killer app for a whole different audience, too.
They said more games, not more first party games - even though thats likely and implied.
I can see non first party titles coming with XBL support.
Ori was basically confirmed by Jason Schreier. Maybe we'll see games that fit the Nintendo audience come over, things like Rare Replay, Super Lucky's Tale (heavily rumored), and ReCore as well.
Feels weird to talk about 1st party games when all we have to go on is Minecraft and an indie game.
Tunic will likely come to Switch and PS4 without Xbox' involvement.
Master Chief Collection's been rumored by a bunch of insiders and sources like king zell

Why do you say so? Any information on this game being multiplatform?
To be honest I'd be cool with just
Some Rare games on N64 Classic, GoldenEye 007 specifically probably.
GoldenEye Remastered
Rare Replay on Switch.
If we get anything more than that like Master Chief Collection, that's a big wowza.

Well you know, if Microsoft ever planing to develop some JRPG again, this time they have Switch to make sure it could have decent sales from Japan.
Like they can remaster the Lost Odyssey to switch then develop Lost Odyssey 2 for XB1(and/or next gen Xbox)+Switch.

Rare Replay is the least plausible of Microsoft's entire first party lineup unfortunately; due to the way it relies on the Xbox One's 360 backwards compatibility...
... ports of each individual game are very possible though! Gimme Perfect Dark on Switch already!
Rare's titles really should be Microsoft's top priority. They belong with Nintendo; and even MS know it.
Rare Replay would be awesome, but I guess some indie games could add this functionality to already existing titles.
Or just Banjo Kazooie out of these, I'll shut up about everything if they put those on in any capacity.

They could play it up as the nintendo collection and include all the nintendo platform games and add games DK64, DKR, Grunty's Revenge and Star Fox Adventures.
It's an indie game. Why wouldn't it eventually come to other platforms?
Like Fez, Limbo, Cuphead, Steamworld Dig, Shovel Knight, Guacamelee and other indie games that started out as exclusives.
Damn, do I love the way you think. If Blue Dragon comes over, I am done. Died and gone to heaven
Didn't a handful of other outlets report on it before Jason? DirectFeedGames, Jeuxvideo, Windows Central & Game Informer's Imran to name a few.
The original rumour (that has now been partially corroborated) said that we're getting native Switch ports of Forza, Gears and Ori. Not streaming versions.
X-cloud support is coming alongside native ports supposedly.
most of the rumors that have had follow up from other sources were games like ori, super lucky and cuphead.
if xcloud is coming, i dont see the reason to port games that will take much more resources
OK, I've always tought of Tunic as a Cuphead kind of deal with Microsoft and the developer, anyways wathever the case maybe I would love to have it on my Switch!
I find MCC rumors unlikely because 343i is working on Infinite while Splash Damage and Ruffian work on PC which is a complicated process in itself. I don't really expect Microsoft to outsource the game to yet another studio which would be four studios working on Master Chief Collection. Xcloud makes more sense, but there's no way Halo is getting a native Switch version.
If there is something really big like MCC coming too, I would think Nintendo would want to keep that saved for E3. That's too big to let out at GDC.
Kinda messed up that Microsoft has better Switch 3rd party support than EA, lol.
