Reggie Fils-Aime is surprised Xbox ‘has not yet embraced the Switch 2’

Posted on by

With the Nintendo Switch 2 having been out for a few months, there aren’t many people we’d like to hear more from on the matter than former—and legendary—Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aimé.

Fils-Aimé recently shared his thoughts on the Switch 2’s launch and how it has performed so far, applauding many of the decisions that Nintendo has made. However, one aspect remains a head-scratcher for him: he doesn’t understand why Xbox hasn’t been more aggressive in porting its games to the platform.

Reggie Fils-Aimé spoke about this and more during a recent episode of *The Game Business Show* with Christopher Dring. When asked about the Switch 2’s launch, Fils-Aimé offered several insights, but his take on the relatively lukewarm software support on the new console stood out the most.

During the discussion, Dring pointed out that titles like *Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 3+4* have already made their way to Switch 2, and *Indiana Jones and the Great Circle* is set to arrive soon. However, he also noted that Xbox’s presence on the platform has been very light, which is surprising given that making games available on Switch was a key condition imposed by trade authorities to approve Xbox’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard.

This cautious approach from Xbox raises questions, especially considering the potential of the Switch 2 as a gaming platform. Fans and industry observers alike will be watching closely to see whether Xbox intensifies its support for the console in the coming months.

Joe Buck better not try selling the Cowboys to Chris Russo

Just because most people continue to care about the Dallas Cowboys doesn’t mean Christopher “Mad Dog” Russo wants to be subjected to them on national television.

The Cowboys may have made a big splash at the trade deadline, landing Quinnen Williams from the New York Jets. But it doesn’t change the fact that Dallas is 3-5-1, with a defense likely to remain one of the worst in football — even with Williams.

Despite entering the season with low expectations and playing to them, America’s Team still has six national games left on its schedule. It all starts Nov. 17, when the Cowboys will play their third Monday Night Football game in three weeks on ESPN.

Russo is already warning Joe Buck not to try to sell anyone on the Cowboys’ playoff chances.

“Joe, in two weeks, I don’t want to hear about chances that Dallas has to make the playoffs when you have the Raiders game the next time we see Dallas at 3-5-1,” Russo ranted Wednesday morning on *First Take*. “Did you see this Dallas schedule? Did you see this on television, what I gotta put up with? A Monday night game against the Raiders, I know they’re gonna get ratings, it’s on ESPN, so I gotta be nice, I know they’re gonna get ratings, but who cares about the Dallas Cowboys and the Raiders game?”

We’re just one week removed from Stephen A. Smith being on *First Take* and claiming the Cowboys were a championship contender — and that was after a loss!

Maybe Buck won’t go that far in selling the Cowboys to the audience. But he doesn’t have to. Because whether they’re good or bad, the Cowboys stay relevant.

“And then I gotta eat my turkey with the Chiefs! I know Mahomes is fun, but Dallas stinks!” Russo continued. “And then on top of that, to make Al Michaels happy, Goodell sent him to Detroit — that’s a Thursday night game!”

The Cowboys could lose their next two games, limp into Thanksgiving Day against the Chiefs at 3-7-1, and the CBS broadcast would still probably become the most-watched regular-season game in NFL history — with or without Russo’s support.

When the Cowboys are on national TV, people watch. Don’t blame the NFL or the networks for putting the Cowboys in the spotlight even when they’re bad. Blame the people who keep watching.

Jets’ win calms down the Aaron Glenn doomsday scenarios in encouraging sign

CINCINNATI — Aaron Glenn clutched the game ball, given to him by Christopher Johnson, under his left arm as 307-pound defensive tackle Harrison Phillips lifted him into the air in the visiting locker room at Paycor Stadium.

The Jets players erupted in a cheer that could be heard through the cinder block walls and seemed to reverberate around the lower level of the stadium. After losing his first seven games as the Jets head coach, Glenn finally got into the win column with a stunning 39-38 victory over the Bengals, and now his players were celebrating with him.

“It felt good just seeing happiness on his face,” Jets linebacker Quincy Williams said.

One of Glenn’s favorite words is “grit,” and it was exactly what his team showed on Sunday, overcoming a 15-point deficit with a fourth quarter for the ages. The comeback was capped off with a halfback option pass from Breece Hall to rookie Mason Taylor—a play call that showed Glenn’s guts have not been compromised by this long losing streak to start his coaching career.
