People buy AMD to play games; they don’t buy games in order to use their AMD card.

AMD have one job in this situation and they are doing it.

Right, the above suggestion might work with coordination, where AMD and NVIDIA both bullied a publisher. But if people want to play a game and NVIDIA makes it work great, despite software bugs, and AMD writes a blog post, I think it's pretty reasonable to say "maybe next time I'll buy NVIDIA."

Also I don't think developers would be quite so receptive. It works on every card that exists in the market today, that's kinda your problem if your unreleased chip breaks this is a fairly good argument.
