    @NintendoAmerica I have discovered today that Nintendo Switch owners don’t have 50 dollars to their name…. If they are going to charge 50 dollars the online experience better be immaculate, no more lagging in Mario Maker or disconnecting in Smash and Mario Kart. Lmao we know better.

  • jrgdrawing 𝔍ℜ𝔊 🍁🍂🎃 (@jrgdrawing) reported

    A thirty dollar jump for a YEAR’s worth of online gaming and some added digital games from Nintendo. If you have the privilege of the gaming money anyway, just budget a couple fewer Wendy’s meals and get your Year of service.

    @davidscottjaffe You know what? I’m sure at a high level Microsoft has pitched Nintendo on getting on their service since it could be said their devices are not in direct competition.

  • megucarrot_ megumi 2 (@megucarrot_) reported

    nintendo made dlc for their online service always knew they could do it

  • Brandon43821536 Brandon (@Brandon43821536) reported

    @1UpWelch This is my problem with Nintendo fans you guys defend crappy business practices then they’ll just keep increasing prices what if this costed 3,000 dollars instead would you still defending it? Quite pathetic if so

  • thrandomir Thrandomir (@thrandomir) reported

    @NintendoAmerica Glad you guys still have the $20 plan because $50 is way more than I'm willing to pay for a service that has no chat function on the device.

  • imsimplyvibing ً (@imsimplyvibing) reported

    @claireshare17 I think u can send it back to Nintendo for them to fix but I also think that might just be for the controllers :( I’m sorry this is happening to u tho <\3

  • 90sNostalgiaGuy Dark Ty 🐲✝♈🎃 (@90sNostalgiaGuy) reported

    @TidyWire @KammyKat22 @NintendoAmerica They be like,"that's what happens when you complain about 10 extra dollars for the whole service too"

  • grahkayyy grace 𓆏 🎃☭ (@grahkayyy) reported

    nintendo be like, hey give us 30 extra bucks a year for the same dogshit online service but now u can play the games u already have emulated on ur pc at a higher quality, on the switch! also nostalgia controllers! give us ur money!!!

  • mttgstreetteam Josh Stapleton (@mttgstreetteam) reported

    @seancapri Exactly! If you don't like it just don't buy it. Plus everyone is saying it's $50, which is half true because that cost includes the regular online service so it's really $30 USD/year. I get it's higher than anticipated, but people are acting like Nintendo killed their mom.

  • scizofrenic Martin (@scizofrenic) reported from San Francisco, California

    Nintendo’s strategy for the + Expansion Pack tier of their online service is an interesting one. Does that mean that some DLC will be available free of charge if you have that membership? You’re basically renting DLC at that point? 🤔

  • SRZXD Flynn (@SRZXD) reported

    @IntroSpecktive Nintendo back at it again with their awful pricings. Before Nintendo's excuse for such a lackluster service was the price, but now it isn't a factor anymore. Of course I just don't need to mention how both PS+ and XBLG are ahead of them by a country mile.

  • GreatBitBlog Great Bit Blog (@GreatBitBlog) reported

    @Drtre81 It doesn't need that, it needs a complete overhaul before I spend $50 annually for a service from Nintendo! Give us better servers and a discord in-system app and then we might go places!

  • SmashUniversal James 🇺🇲🇭🇰🇹🇼🇨🇺 (@SmashUniversal) reported

    @EmilyRogersBlog Now it's actually possible that Nintendo got Goldeneye on the service. Lol.

  • SeanJBrander Sunilla Islander (@SeanJBrander) reported

    @RCaseDrawsStuff What really baffles me the most is that why is Nintendo charging us money per month for Switch Online? I mean, couldn't we just buy any of the SNES, Sega and N64 Apps on their service and then leave our wallets alone??
