@NintendoAmerica If you’re going to make such a big price increase, the least you could do is add features that should’ve already been in the service like non-game specific voice chats

@NintendoAmerica Is everyone forgetting the problem with the joystick on the original N64 controller? Oh wait, 90% of Twitter users are 13.

@GIBBERThypeman Nintendo will take down emulators just for you to buy their emulators. I don't have an issue with that, but the service is *** what's the point?

@imranzomg The base online service doesn't even run that well. I myself can't see paying for the expansion online pass unless I found some kind of deal. But Nintendo sales are like finding water in the desert.

@boomboxblam @Ashclone_ @NintendoAmerica Idk I'd say the online service works for the most part. Most online games never lag only a few like smash and its the minority of the time. But this price definitely shouldn't be for just n64 and genisis.

@SourceLocator @NintendoAmerica I'm pretty sure my nearly 20 year old flashdrive full of roms is worth closer to 50 than they're whole service and still it's free unlike Nintendo's pay wall for both online and being able to play old games because that's what it is not a service but a paywall

@DrBoomer27 Looked it up, its apparently 80 dollars for family, up form 35, so nintendo apparently believes that a few fan favorite n64/sega games are worth a >2x price multiplier. This may make sense if you compare it to the current state of their online service being hot trash, but still

@IGN This is not remotely worth $50 a year @NintendoAmerica. You still don’t even have Mario RPG,Earthbound and other classics for the Super Nintendo on the service. Very disappointed and will not be upgrading.

@TacoSamuel @Joeytehwriter @NintendoAmerica I'm not arguing against that I'm literally saying it's no additional cost because it's part of the base cost. You have just as much proof as I do that the value of the service would change/stay the same if it didn't have the DLC.

@GabeWMusic @Batdogduke64 @NintendoAmerica yeah thats funny because im not. im still going to complain about a bad service that abuses nintendos own lack of legacy games. because if nobody complains, all nintendo will see is a bunch of money from people who bought it and the lack of complaints.

@BadassSamurai @NintendoAmerica I heard there was a glitch. Looks like they'll have to do a patch.

@Lbabinz Yikes, the pricing on the new service/controllers feels like a rare misstep for Nintendo.

@SwagFish03 nintendo just stretches it way too far games get "free updates" because they're unfinished and buggy messes, their subscription service is kind of useless because their servers suck for most games, and they just overprice anything because they just want ******* money.

🍑oh also I realise that it's only a 5 dollar increase without the DLC. But here is the problem Nintendo. Not everyone has Animal Crossing. Give us a 5 dollar increase tier as well

Just as I expected, Nintendo got greedy for the NSO expansion and just wanted an excuse to charge about as much as its competitors for online service with minimal effort.

@SpawnWaveMedia The actual online service is terrible. They are charging $10 less than Sony and MS and adding legacy games to cover up the service flaws. N64 is Nintendo’s worst console (not including Virtual Boy) and you can play Genesis games almost anywhere.

As a Sega Genesis kid, I'm disappointed in the tiny offering Nintendo is trying to make for their games if I pay extra for their service. Especially when I can get a bigger library of games on Steam or pick and choose a game for $1 each.

Nintendo trynna charge $50 - $80 for us to play the same 30 year-old games they've already sold us 4 - 5 times already, and for the most mediocre online service ever conceived? **** that ****. I don't condone piracy but that ****'s a robbery, go get those roms/emulators.

@oogaboogafr Honestly the Nintendo online price wouldn't even be that bad if their online was just GOOD, like that's the main issue here lmao

@SpawnWaveMedia I think nintendo forgot they are supposed to provide a good online service with the price I cancelled my online a while ago never going back

@NintendoAmerica With the given amount of content and quality of the online service, that is a high price! IF this NSO package also includes future DLC for other games, or the online noticably improves, then maybe. As it stands, that's too much.

@NintendoAmerica 30 more dollars for a online service that does the absolute bare minimum, I like your games Nintendo but come on

It's honestly just hilarious how bad Nintendo are at this online service. It's just kinda embarrassing at this point.
