    @Miguel_Casso @TheMrPasquale This isn't what the post says. The wording implies that Sega in particular was unhappy with the sales of their games on the service. Which makes sense since Nintendo games were the star of the show on VC, not Sega.

    That new Nintendo Online subscription is pretty nifty. I like how they included the new paid dlc for Animal crossing to the mix to sweeten the deal. But when you take out that. What you are left with is still a service that needs better online support.

  • TorutheRedFox Toru the Red Fox 🦊 (@TorutheRedFox) reported

    @mandylorian__ @Doctor_D0M3 @NintendoAmerica psn actually has a service that does more than just matchmaking in online games and a few ROMs

  • CjgGeneral General CJG (@CjgGeneral) reported

    @Talsbyn @SpawnWaveMedia For Xbox Live Gold and PlayStation Network at $60 dollars a year you get a solid, feature rich online multiplayer experience where as the Nintendo Switch Online service you can't even message or call your friends online on the console, you need to use their ****** mobile app.

  • JempHQ Jesse (@JempHQ) reported

    yo @ModernVintageG! what's the complexity like for creating emulated online multiplayer for a console that was originally local only? (Like what Nintendo is doing with the new N64 Expansion service)

  • Dragon_KD94 Dragon Knight Dragonborn (@Dragon_KD94) reported

    i would rather emulate n64 games then pay $60 a yearly fee. I do love you Nintendo but do fix the service please.

  • epicgamernaenae Magnus (@epicgamernaenae) reported

    @troyglidden @TylerCain @NintendoAmerica Actually, some others like sin and punishment or goldeneye let you use the d pad for movement and the stick to aim. It's actually a pretty clever design when you think about it... Until sony just fixed every issue with it by slapping 2 sticks on a snes controller

  • fakeplasticjack fakeplasticjack (@fakeplasticjack) reported

    @YongYea Not that I was even close to considering this service, but luckily I have a PS Vita that runs Nintendo classics ;P go figure.

  • Bluejay_West Despite rage, I'm still just a rat with John Cage. (@Bluejay_West) reported

    @TheSleeve_ @ArloStuff $20 a year is pushing it for what Nintendo counts as an “online service”

  • infernaltim Tim Tervo (@infernaltim) reported

    @dinahnwndrlnd I have an issue where I bought a new phone last year and Google authenticator won't remember my Nintendo account. I can't sign in on the web to order one. 😢

  • rickdadragon DS X GK X #FREEMVC2 2.0 (@rickdadragon) reported

    @CodellTraverson They did The service has not improved and their game rotation won't either but because their offering a greater variance of games consumers are supposed to pay more Steam > Games with gold & Game Pass > Playstation + & PS Now/EA access/Ubisoft Play > Nintendo Online

  • DovahUm Jairaround (@DovahUm) reported

    @GMB_Naz36 You're part of the problem, this is why Nintendo keep doing the stupidest and mediocre stuff and people will still buy it

  • Nfinit Nfinit, Candy Corn Enthusiast (@Nfinit) reported

    @mcclure111 What’s great is Nintendo had already stated the drift is not only not fixed on the OLED model but they don’t consider it a problem that they will ever be interested in resolving.

  • rosssmiller Ross Miller (@rosssmiller) reported

    In comparison, Xbox Live Gold and Playstation Plus are $60/year. So that's $10 LESS than Nintendo's service, which provides the absolute worst online play support anywhere in gaming. What the hell.

  • DreamyPumpkins P̸U̷M̴P̸K̸I̷N̴S̵.jpg | Spooky fox! 🎃 (@DreamyPumpkins) reported

    @SolarSurvivor1 I know right? What the hell Nintendo... it's like they don't want people to use the service, it's ridiculous!
