Nintendo looked to partner with Cyanogen for Switch’s OS, CEO told them to stick it.
While Nintendo was developing the Switch, they came to Cyanogen.Inc to try to work together on a new OS (operative system) for their new console. But as a tweet of the Ex Ceo of Cyanogen.Inc says, nothing happened because McMaster told Nintendo to “stick it.”
(The tweet has since been deleted)
He also posted another tweet:
Those of you familiar with the Android scene know that Cyanogen Inc. is the company behind the Android-based open-source OS CyanogenMod.
But this wasn't the first rude comment from Kirt when being the Ceo of the company he also said things like Google being a “common enemy” and that they are “putting a bullet through Google’s head.”
This kind of rude statements and some very unpopular decisions gave them a bad reputation and drove Cyanogen.Inc to where they are; CyanogenMod is dead, Kirt McMaster is not the CEO of Cyanogen Inc. anymore, all services were closed some months ago at the end of last year, and the CyanogenMod OS has no longer official support.
A blessing in disguise? Maybe Switch users must give Kirk a huge thanks, because the Switch would have been released with a dead and unsupported OS. But Cyanogen's fate might have been different altogether if it had partnered with Nintendo...
