Discord Chaos, Xbox Cuts, and Nintendo's Big Screen Strategy S7E24

This week on the M2 Podcast, we break down one of the wildest weeks in gaming. We discuss Discord's massive moderation failure that mistakenly banned thousands of users for sharing innocent Minecraft and chessboard screenshots, Nintendo's growing strategy of aligning game releases with its blockbuster movie universe, and Microsoft's sweeping Xbox restructuring that includes 3,200 layoffs as the company fights to reset its gaming business. We also examine Hasbro's changing gaming ambitions after writing down $56 million in canceled projects and what it says about the risks of AAA game development in today's industry. Join us as we separate the headlines from the hype and explore what these stories mean for gamers and the future of the industry.0:00 Intro1:30 Updates7:17 Discord Banned 8,000 Users https://tinyurl.com/9uzedcnt 16:32 Nintendo games were created with the Mario movies in mind https://tinyurl.com/3kjf9cdj 26:43 Xbox Boss Announces 3,200 Layoffs https://tinyurl.com/4hx4xdnd 43:45 Hasbro’s Big Gaming Strategy Is Falling Apart https://tinyurl.com/mvb25b3f 59:50 OutroLEAVE A LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching/listening!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------PODCAST                ►► https://anchor.fm/m2podcastAMAZON Music         ► https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/091902c3-b83b-487c-8fe7-4c96787434fe/M2-PodcastAPPLE                          ► https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1531832410BREAKER                     ► https://www.breaker.audio/m2-podcast-2CASTRO                       ► https://castro.fm/podcast/6f69d373-d879-46d9-9f1c-bcf7c4bf1741GOOGLE                       ► https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8zNTYwNWZiMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==OVERCAST                   ► https://overcast.fm/itunes1531832410/m2-podcastPOCKETCASTS           ► https://pca.st/5jghvf6eRADIOPUBLIC             ► https://radiopublic.com/m2-podcast-GMZkY4SPOTIFY                      ► https://open.spotify.com/show/2VedhO03IRoHERJqF6Sy87STICHER                      ► https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/m2-podcastTUNEIN                        ► http://tun.in/pj3ZI#podcast JOIN THE DISCORD!  ►► https://discord.gg/Kp5Gre6KyleHeath Socials:TIKTOK           ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@mrjkheathTWITCH          ►► https://www.twitch.tv/kyleheathTWITTER        ►► https://twitter.com/mrjkheathYOUTUBE       ►► https://www.youtube.com/MrJkheathMadMikeWillEatU Socials:TIKTOK           ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@madmikewilleatuTWITCH          ►► https://www.twitch.tv/madmikewilleatu/aboutTWITTER        ►► https://twitter.com/madmikewilleatuYOUTUBE       ►► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1MoIvzyMDvH_5Ta
