@notpeter something running inside macOS isn't going to solve my problem, because the situation where I wire my headphones to the monitor, the audio source isn't my mac, it's a nintendo switch

@PSN_ElectricDC Also, if you already have purchased the classics (not gonna assume all) they are available with or without the service. And eligible to download AND eligible for purchase. Assuming they will continue to bring more of these now to the platform. Nintendo starves it’s VC.

@Gingerhitman1 @NikoMueller Well one that’s not why Don got booted. Two Xbox’s drm is almost identical to Nintendo and PlayStations. The outage wasn’t even drm caused. And Dons drm was exponentially worse

@valvesoftware @Nintendo how about you think with your ******* braincells and look over to the tf2 community who haven’t gotten updates in 4 and a half years and have a rampant bot problem

@NintendoAmerica How about we fix the lead bowling pins in Bowling? The physics are laughable.

@JeremyG__ Not atm. There are always rumors that Nintendo may add Game Boy games to the NSO subscription service but so far nothing official sadly

@JeremyG__ Unfortunately, there are currently no options to play Game Boy games on the Switch. However, there have been rumours for months indicating that the platform might be added to the Nintendo Switch Online service at some point in the future.

@vitalitysensor This looks way better than what Nintendo Online service is offering actually, Nintendo just looking really bad right now

I hate this stupid trend Sony is following Nintendo on with their Subscription Service of giving us as little as possible Jesus Sony

@Unski113d That's absolutely fair, Nintendo's offering is woeful considering their back catalog is so big and most of the most beloved games are theirs so there aren't any rights issues.

@chasepettit That depends on what you're looking for. Mr. Driller for example is kind of a big deal and the PS2 remasters as well. Though just judging from the list, I have literally zero intention on getting into whatever this service is supposed to be. Nintendo copycat thingy?

(@MaxMikado) reported
@ncbjd Exactly. Steam lets you download games w/ expired third-party licensing (Marvel) that you've previously purchased, and server space is cheap. I don't see why legacy content and game preservation has always been such a problem for the industry, but especially Sony and Nintendo.

It's been 299 days since the last game was added to the Nintendo Switch Online service

@vgcartography Much like with Nintendo's retro offerings, licencing is going to impact this service pretty hard. So many obvious games will be missing due to ever changing ownership.

@ForbesGames What a *** list. They didn't even tease games they dont have on their library like CvS2, og RnC trilogy, Sly, og Spyro trilogy, og Crash trilogy or Crash Twinsanity, Tekken (3,4 & 5 DR), Soul Calibur 2 & 3, the Smackdown games, etc etc etc. No wonder Nintendo is whooping them.

@Jiikae i mean, if microsoft could pull it off... bigger problem is, both microsoft and nintendo already pulled it off.

@ScrambledFaz Yeah I can see that. They do it with the Shin Megami Tensei games on the Nintendo Switch Online service.

@GTRRX70122 There was a glitch where you could farm a lot of deaths, but you can't do it anymore since Nintendo updated it.

@JonComms To me I think it's the fact they lose on two fronts. I think Game Pass is a better service than it still. Plus if I just wanted it for the classic games service Nintendo has a better legacy service. It's a new service so obviously they can catch up later but rn I'm not sold on it

The whole PS+ new service makes Nintendo Switch Online look like a great service.
