Nintendo’s new rules seem exceedingly strange when you consider Chaos;Head Noah apparently failed Steam’s standards and practices, but was immediately picked up for the Switch.

Steam has since reversed the decision, but still!

This weeks news includes:

This week we’re asking the question, what key selling points are needed to sell someone on an Xbox 360 considering the fact that they’d love exclusive FPS titles for the console.
