So X is shorthand for Nazi right?
I'm not a gamer or a xitterhead but what would these consoles do with xitter integration.
For uploading game clips I'd assume
For Nintendo, it was the only way to upload your screenshots to the internet if you don't have a PC or phone with an SD slot. The other consoles have other integration you could use for images (and they all have YouTube for video) so this kinda sucks for Switch owners that have literally no other way of getting their screenshots online.
Sharing screenshots and video captures.
The only place where I tried to use it was on Xbox back when Xbox One first came out, and I didn't like the way it worked back then, so I didn't really use it much. It didn't send the actual media to Twitter, it posted a link to the file, and Xbox screenshots got deleted after 30 days. If I wanted to properly post it so that the media was actually hosted on Twitter, I had to save the full res media anyway.
(In fact actually saving full resolution Xbox screenshots used to be needlessly difficult. Only much later they added a way to save screenshots to OneDrive, which occasionally worked, and only very recently they decided they don't bother with the Xbox screenshot hosting at all and auto-upload everything to OneDrive.)
all three? what about soulja boy? as long as he's still supporting it they'll be fine
Now if only Hello Games would drop it too.
And 1000 or so other developers.
Are they going to integrate mastodon instead?
They'll make their own fediverse. With blackjack. And hookers.
Nintendo: ๐โโ๏ธ
Fine, Nintendo, you don't have to have the hookers.
Nintendo: ๐โโ๏ธ
No, you cannot dress Pikachu up as a prostitute.
Miyamoto: ๐โโ๏ธ
You can do whatever you want.
They all have ways to send screenshots to the mobile apps if Iโm not mistaken and with Twitter jacking up API prices since Elon took over, it makes perfect sense just to discontinue support
I would be interested to know how much of Twitter's use was from these integrations. This could be an absolute drop in the bucket.
I used this exclusively to get screenshots off my switch easily. Still very happy about bigger companies cutting ties with the muskrat.
