Why the fuck would I renew this? Nintendo online is pathetic. Their e shop, although not part of their online package, runs like shit. Does Nintendo have one guy working a 9 to 5 shift who's in charge of their raspberry pi server rack?
Nintendo online pros: >A small handful of SNES and NES games you can emulate anyway or play on the other consoles you bought them on >Tetris 99 >Cloud save that doesn't even work on all titles (Animal Crossing)
I can't think of anything else. Even ANIMAL CROSSING has the most backwards shit smeared way to visit towns. It's so slow and buggy.
If If you didn't kiss Nintendo's ass so much and actually complained once in a while they would be forced to make better services
Are people really not using their gold points the way they should be?
William Bennett
it was fun to watch how sony and nintendo consolefags separately started supporting paid online just as soon as their manufacturer started forcing it on them
Charles Brown
Fuck microsoft for normalizing this shit
Isaac Turner
I cancelled it in October last year when Splatoon 2 died down. Haven't looked back. Or was obvious when they stopped offering monthly games that they don't expect this to grow in a big way.
Kevin Baker
>Their eshop runs like shit Man I have had a PS4 for years and can seriously say that the eShop is just better. Yeah, it doesn't have a cart, that's the only drawback, but you get some money back and it doesn't perpetually crash like Sony's
But then again, Xbox's store is way better than both, I just wish it had the Gold coins program Nintendo has.

>Fuck microsoft for normalizing this shit
It's amazing how the Xbox 360 users just bought into it. Then again, it's mostly the Call of Duty crowd
Kayden Moore
Companies only listen to organized boycotts, but the Nintendo fan base is too headstrong for that to happen
Cameron Ramirez
NSO is Splatoon+Smash tax
Jordan Smith
explain picked up a switch lite over covacation but dont want to pay another sub
Benjamin Harris
>still no fucking Virtual Console Seriously, someone explain this to me. Is it some kind of hardware limitation or are they just allergic to money?
This holy shit. Also online on Switch is cancer anyway I happily pirated mine and never looked back. All the few good games on it are single player anyway.
Christopher Anderson
I blame the CoD crowd and the "insert EA sports game of choice here" crowd. They buy their consoles depending on which one the first person in their circle of friends buy, then they all buy it to play with them, and all buy the online to play with each other. It completely normalises the process, and they don't question it because of peer pressure where they don't want to be left out. We have generations of gamers who only know online play and didn't grow up playing same couch vs or co-op.
Jaxon Johnson
oh boy, is this the "i'm too stupid to take advantage of the family plan and pay next to nothing for online" thread? i don't wanna miss the seething retards lose their minds!
Kevin Garcia
No, this seems to be the "I cope with paying for a service that should be free by insisting that I'm smart for finding a way to pay slightly less money than other people" thread.
Josiah Morgan
It’s literally free if you buy games, retard. Pretty much exclusively a poor people problem since they don’t have money for games anyway
Landon Rodriguez
It is pretty shit desu. You'd only use it for two games realistically: >Smash Ultimate >Splatoon 2
Splatoon 2 has died down and everyone is just waiting for Splatoon 3. Smash Ultimate has terrible online. If you don't plan to play either of these two games heavily then it's simply not worth it.
Easton Myers
There was a boycott of sorts, to the point the CEO was disappointed on the incredibly low number of subscribers to the service. Instead of addressing any issues with the service, they just made it free via twitch prime for a while and started practically giving it away with certain bundles. I suspect the number of active subs is still a fraction of what they wanted, but they clearly lack the competence to improve their online service at all.
Ian Gonzalez
I use mine almost exclusively for mario maker. Smash online is hot garbage and I don't play Splatoon as often anymore
Christian Lee
mario kart 8 deluxe online is pretty good actually, it's still a bit wonky but it's at least playable and looks like a godsend compared to ultimate online
John Murphy
Why don't you stop buying things you don't want? What's wrong with you?
Logan Jenkins
pretty sure all the nintendo fans hate it and try to get it free or as cheap as possible, or skip on it entirely.
Zachary Ramirez
>It’s literally free if you buy user...
Wyatt Reed
I only have it for MHGU multiplayer.
Levi Reyes
>It's amazing how the Xbox 360 users just bought into it Alternative was ps3 online And it was so bad, that des players specially bought das for xbox just to avoid repeating that shitfest(they were for big surprise, this time thanks to FROM)
Jason Jenkins
>your gold coins expire Nintendo are truly the biggest kikes in gaming.
Hunter Nguyen
>unironically playing worst monster hunter
Jose King
that's not what I got from all the posts along the lines of "it's only $20/servers are expensive/"Free" ROMs/it should cost more!"
Austin Scott
There is no way any of those posts are serious, assuming any such posts exist at all. Look just about anywhere on the internet regarding switch online and you'll see complaints. At best, you might have someone saying "at least I got mine free/cheap"
Ethan Cook
Would you like to buy a hamburger? Only 1 Dollar Cool... wait a minute... this isnt Beef. ITS RAT... and where is the Ketchup and Bread? HEY AT LEAST ITS CHEAP!
Benjamin Phillips
>If If you didn't kiss Nintendo's ass so much and actually complained once in a while they would be forced to make better services You forget that they upped their offer of VC games from "1 game a month" to a library of games BECAUSE the shittalking about their online before it became paid. Like it was somehow planned to be even SHITTIER than what we got, so they pushed it back a few months.
Evan Myers
>food analogy
Josiah Turner
How come post gamergate Zig Forums is full of faggots who constantly looking to others for approve of their actions? I mean, who fucking cares about you renewing your sub? Not us, that's for sure. If you don't want to pay for something, then fucking don't pay for it. You aren't a kid anymore who will be shamed by your friends for not fitting in, and we aren't your friends either.
Christopher Miller
>Buying shovelware for pennies worth of points to evade the online tax The Switch does not have enough worthwhile titles to do this.
