$20/year means you can't afford rent? sounds like you have more problems in your life and you're choosing an easy target. perhaps you should see a budget specialist to get your life on track.

A) $20 a year is barely anything. It's so cheap.

B) Nintendo made it perfectly clear from the very beginning that the Switch online wouldn't be free forever. If you didn't pay attention and remember that, then that ignorance is on you

$20 a year is nothing.

...Actually, for what Nintendo is offering, it's an appropriate price. That's not really a complement for them.

Just got my eviction notice for missing my rent

And Nintendo doesn't give a fuck. They don't care about their customers. They just want to rip them off and leave them homeless.

What's the answer here then? Communism? If we had communism Nintendo online would still be free.

They offer the same stuff they did for free but now with a $30 price tag

When they double the price next year to $60 you'll see the same guys on here defending them.

The online service is shit (especially since it doesn't support cloud saves with games that need it the most, e.g. Splatoon 2).

Not gonna lie though, I did enjoy playing NES games online with friends, despite the bad netcode. I hope a collection of SNES roms are next.

That being said it's shit.

Nintendo is so dishonest I wouldn't be surprised if they kept charging my credit card after I turn off auto renewals. "By the way, the price is now $1000 a year. Thanks for your understanding".

No it fucking isn't. It's 1/3rd the (maximum) price of the other guys for 1/100th the quality.

Also I see the online is basically a ghost town now as few people want to pay for this ripoff subscription

I've been waiting to find an opponent for mario tennis for over an hour now. It used to be 15 seconds.

seriously trying to act like adding a collection of fucking NES games with online functionality is a worthwhile feature

i'm not bothering with it until smash releases t b h

Meh, I cared more when we had a chance at doing something about it. People normalised this when you stood still when Sony and Microsoft did it, you really thought Nintendo wasn't going to want a piece of the pie too?

It does not. Nintendo did not improve the quality of their servers.

All the consoles paid online sucks anyway. On PC its free and far superior to anything any console can offer. Nintendos sucks a bit more, sure, but its not as if PS+ and Xbox+ are good or anything.
