@SiberianNinja Yeah, Nintendo basically put themselves in this position by shoving NES into NSO early in the Switch’s life to make it “worth it”. Now they want to make a Game Pass type of service, they are now stuck with that setup.

@Berniedave20 @Simpsons703 @SpawnWaveMedia If it turns out to just be ACNH DLC added as "incentive", then yeah it's overpriced. I'll wait and see oof nintendo gives any more news on give online service

@NintendoAmerica Are you ******* kidding me? You have to pay $30 extra for two emulators, for a service that always lags in online play? Why!?

@AlkaidSc @Anggul_D @NintendoUK He never said he couldn't afford nor purchase it you did. Idk why you're mad at someone not wanting to spend money on a service that's not really worth it lol

The only way you'd be able to hook me with that offer is if Nintendo updated the service like EVERY month or so and stop doing the minimum when it comes to adding more games. You can't keep doing droplet releases every so often.

@NintendoAmerica Do you have to get the animal crossing paid dlc with the service or can you choose not to for a lower family price?

@Kawakommunist @elliotduby @NintendoAmerica well most of us do, which is why we’re forced to pay for this garbage service, the fact they couldn’t do a decent upgrade without a 150% markup, is ******* criminal

@NintendoAmerica This price is ridiculous! Sure I’m already paying the $19.99 pack but I thought it would be a $10 dollar add on. $30 is freaking ridiculous! Fix this my dudes

@coolblok1 @cream63181153 @NintendoAmerica I'm saying I would've liked if this specific content(stuff like Harriet and Katrina and such) were in from the start, everything else that's new I have literally no issue with(you can cook now and that seems super neat.)

@NintendoAmerica $50.00?! WHY?!?! This has got to be the worst service we ever get! Just give us free **** already nintendo! Your making it worst!

@NintendoAmerica Nintendo should remove the ACNH DLC from the expansion pack, not everyone is interested in ACNH, and DLC doesn't even have to do with the service's proposal, which is to play a library of classic games and such, so... What a bad decision by Nintendo, lol unfortunately... 👀

If the service included the ability to play paid DLC for various Nintendo games (like Splatoon 2/Breath of the Wild), sure, that would make sense and be pretty cool! But DLC for only one game feels so tacked-on, like even they knew that $30 was too much for N64/Genesis roms lmao

Nintendo Online lacks in Voice chat because you have to use your phone to voice chat with people which is dumb as hell. Someone calls me on my cell phone while I’m playing an online game for my switch that’s gonna be a problem

@pisxes_chi It's cuz of Animal Crossing. They had to hike that **** up since it's base 25$ without the service. Nintendo lives too much in 2007 to realize not everyone cares about Animal Crossing.

@NintendoAmerica This is an awful deal. I am actually sad that you'd even think for a second that this is a fair price for this service.
