Ahh but he's starting to get worried about the GameCube ATM, two
multi-platform games have just been altered, one has just become X-Box
exclusive and the other will only be available for the PS2 and X-Box. The
PS2 is really out of date now and Bill Gates had been thinking that his
greatest loss-maker might make a comeback... Then GameCube exclusives
started hitting the top of the all-consoles charts.
Cooperating with Nintendo does not appear to be high on Microsoft's
priority list at the moment.
The cooperation is on the part of the software developers, they want to
sell the games they write to make the most money, if none of the big three
(as it were) are willing to pay for exclusivity then it goes multi platform.
