I doubt those predictions will make it, but if they do then it will be much welcomed.
Well then play the games you bought for the system. Nobody says they bought a PS4 for PS Plus.
I teach in schools in Japan, more of my students own Overwatch than Splatoon.
The console is only a few weeks away, this was the perfect chance to show their new online experience for the console to up their game and hype. Judging from their history, they don't have a good track record offering barebones online, stupid friend codes, and convoluted buying system on the e-shop.
.... And then there is the monthly choice of games from 20 years ago that is basically a rent offer rather than adding it to your library. Sure, the don't have to offer ...
For what they are offering, no! They are jumping on that bandwagon but offering less than other online services for the privilege.
If Nintendo really wants to attract and compete with its paid online service then they should have their NES and SNES games catalogue available as a on demand service. As long as you are subscribed to the services you can play classic Nintendo games as much as you want if you don't, the license is halted or expires until you resub. These are games from the 80s and 90s, why Nintendo is limiting it to a single timed title per month is strange.
You are actually spreading false information or simply can't read. What part of the Switch online service don't you understand? You get a choice of either a NES or SNES title a month, which can only be played within that month then is goes away. The following month is the same, 2 new choices in which you choose one to be played within said month.
Where as their competitors allows you to keep the library of games offered each month as long as you keep your sub.
PS+ wasn't there to test the market. It was an optional service offering great selective games every month to a needed service on the PS4 with hit and miss games every month.
You get to criticize Nintendo for jumping onthat bandwagon when Sony copied the same model MS has being doing for years.
The problem they might run into is first converting gamers who already have an Xbox or/and PS4 who already have subs, getting them to buy a Switch and paying for another sub. It's a massive ask. Unless they have a bevy of great titles with amazing and unique online then I don't see it taking off beside from diehard Nintendo fans.
Doesn't help fueling the obvious!
Stop making stupid assumptions based on some bias. Yeah another subscription sucks but you have no idea how the service will operate on the Switch, unless you want to make another assumption.
Personally I can't be arsed paying for another subscription. If the console proves to be successful and builds up a good library of first and third party titles then I might pick it up.
About 11 years too late.
I am sure Capcom will calmly handle this remake substation like Nintendo does with theirs.
Because the vita like all small portable consoles are.......wait for it......portable gaming machines. Why not add the DS and 3DS on the your list? The Switch is going against the PS4 and Xbox regardless how hybrid the Switch is.
Or maybe you seem to have a certain hate towards Sony for being overly selective in point. You would have a valid point if current home consoles didn't come with Ethernet built-in and compare like-for-like, but you really don't and grasping...
A story without having to buy the dlc to know there is an actual story.
Because if you keep using an exploit for an advantage it might as well just be cheating. Of course, you are going to get a banned if you keeping abusing exploits in online PVP games. Don't cry about it when you get caught.
Call it what you want, it doesn't matter as the console is seriously lacking in new and fresh first party titles.
Because Capcom is the publisher and developer of the title you numpty.
Take what? You do know it has already been hacked and hackers managed to add games to the system.
Which means what exactly? Would be nice if he could elaborate on what "Nintendo flair" means for its online structure.
