If the NES game selection was larger, I'd be OK with paying $20/year for "NESflix" since the emulator is so good.

Nah the fact that they hide the ability to back-up your saves behind a paywall makes it objectively worse than the others

You can copy saves onto thumb drives. Only way to back-up saves on Switch is by paying for their service

I like how you are required to have a Switch Online account to even have the "privilege" to buy the $60 NES controllers.

They also provide regular backups if you don't. Nintendo's only option is to pay for the service or absolutely no way to backup saves. And that doesn't even work with all games.

Probably because they literally only work for NESflix games. Why would you want to buy them if you don't have access to the only games they work with?

Switch controllers are universal Bluetooth gamepad compatible. Without drivers or anything.

I heard if you get the free trial for Switch Online, they don't even LET you buy them

Yep. It'll kick you back and say "only paid subscribers can buy these"

Overall...I guess you get what you pay for. $20 a year for a subscription service for NES games? That's the way I look at it, because there's no way they're gonna bother putting dedicated servers for their games.

That NES service should've just been given the Virtual Console name so we'd know we'll get more than NES games, because right now it's questionable.

I would buy it just for the NES games. I think I've bought Zelda on just about every platform they've offered it for. I love that game.

I'll think of a sig later.

I mean, it wouldn't surprise me if they eventually get hacked to be usable universally, but as they're manufactured they're designed only for NES online games.

Well the homebrew scene realistically only has until smash comes out to outpace Nintendo's crappy online services. So I suppose we shall see which is better.
