This is a video I've had on my Make These Videos list since back before I even released my old Microsoft GBC video! I finally had the time to sit down and tackle this project, along with help from MykonosFan putting the edit together. All in all, it's probably one of my personal favorites I've made in this topic video style, so I hope you enjoy it!

Now for some housekeeping: My Majora's Mask video is definitely gonna miss my initial deadline, I've been struggling a bit with time, but I'm gonna try to power through either for release in the first week of November, or after that whenever I've finished the PS5 videos I make! It'll be worth the wait, I don't know that I'll be able to top Other M but I'm sure gonna try! Next week I've got a good potential filler video in the mean time to keep on my mostly-weekly schedule, as I got an early code for AVGN 1+2. If anything changes, you'll be the first to know!

The First Xbox Game on Nintendo - Microsoft's Game Boy Advance Games

Now that iconic Xbox franchises like Minecraft and Banjo-Kazooie are featured as DLC fighters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, and with a handful of Xbox Game Studios properties having released on the Nintendo Switch in the last few years, many people assume that this strange Microsoft-Nintendo corporate friendship is brand new. But that couldn't be further from the truth: The first Xbox game on a Nintendo system actually came out in 2003 on the Game Boy Advance! In total Microsoft released six games on the GBA between 2003 and 2005, and in today's video we'll be looking at each of these Xbox Game Boy Advance games, and the fascinating story of how these two console juggernauts came together on Nintendo's handheld! If you want to go back even further, before the Xbox even existed, here's my video about Microsoft's Windows Games on Game Boy Color: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tQgz2rwPeVw WATCH NEXT: Ratchet & Clank's Crossovers in Other Games (feat.
