*Im prefacing this by saying I love Nintendo, and I don't think this will ever happen, but as a lover of all things Game, it's a dream of mine.

The year is 2018. The place is E3. Everyone is Expectinf the Next Gen of Consoles to be announced. Sure enough Sony announces the PS5. There's a solid hour of tech talk and exclusives. Then as the presentation is winding down, they announce they have one last special announcement. The lights dim, and a solid white background is displayed on the massive wall of screens. Then a disembodied voice is heard. "It's a me, Mario!" The crowd loses their minds as the Nintendo Logo flashes on screen.

Nintendo has signed a 3 year licensing deal with Sony. They will release 9 games over the next 3 years, all from their core franchises, all exclusive to the PS5. At the end of this 3 year period they will release a new console. Sony wins. Nintendo Wins. Fans Win. (Xbox Loses? Lol I love Xbox but they would get demolished)

Sorry if this post has been seen before. I just had to get this off my head. I just love the idea.

I dunno I guess that would be interesting for a lot of Sony fans. I don't have a Playstation 4 yet but I might get one in the next few years (I want sports games). Not that it's all that important, but I don't think that would be a wise move for Nintendo if they want to continue in the console business. If they lose their first-party exclusives their home consoles may lose a lot of traction.

I'm sure it's a dream for many who wants all the great games on one console, but Nintendo will lose more money this way. It's cheaper to develop and license their games on their own consoles, and they'll end up competing with their own games on the opposing console because the PS5 will most likely be active well after that 3 year deal.

@ANIMEguy10034:

Yea, my idea was working on more of an idealistic economic world view. Companies form a partnership where the Both thrive equally. That's not how the real world works though.

@jinsing129: Yeah. lol
It'll probably be the most earth shattering E3 moment ever, though. Something to tell the grandkids. :P
