Also we are making fire emblem 1 NES and super mario 3D all-stars limited time purchases because artificial scarcity=prestige for these titles. Better get it now or you are ass-out

I'll give you this, I'm pretty fucked off about the timed exclusivity. I've got a friend who grew up loving Mario Galaxy, and he should be able to pick up a copy of 3D All-Stars if he wants to play it again on Switch. With that, the Fire Emblem game you mentioned and Mario 35 going back in the vault, at least they haven't tried it again - but honestly, yeah. Fair point.

Internet is another point of contention, though at least with friend codes, you can friend local players with a more streamlined system. But yeah, friend codes are pretty hefty. I also thought it was bullshit when online play was free for one and a half years, only for them to start charging in September 2018. I will at least say that at least they only made it $20 USD (thirty bucks for me), because frankly I wouldn't have paid the $100+ PS+ or Xbox Gold if I had those consoles and I'm sure as shit not buying a $700 console just to pay over a hundred bucks a year to play online. My current plan is to get a PC by the end of next year. But the charge was completely arbitrary and it was a stupid, shitty move.
