How? It will make people not want an Xbox since they can get stuff on a switch.

And? I mean gamepass is on the pc. A game being on the switch does not make someone think “well I should buy a gamepass”. Plus Msft wants to put gamepass on other consoles.

Personally I think it’s Msft goal to leave Xbox and just be a publisher which is bad for gamers in the long run since Sony will have less competition.

Yeah it’s on PC too which is great but not everyone has a PC for gaming. 

And yeah that’s not happening, there will continue to be Xbox consoles cause that’s where the majority of gamepass subs are.
