JonDnD 2,608 Posted September 17, 2018 Author Share Posted September 17, 2018 It's bad enough cloud saves are locked behind a paywall ( that get deleted if you unsubscribe) but now Nintonto is locking controllers behind a paywall LOL In any case, potential purchasers should be aware that these special NES controllers can only be used for a handful of classic games, and they will become completely unusable if you stop subscribing to Nintendo's online service. That makes them more of a novelty than anything else, in our view. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There's nothing wrong with how I phrased it. The Switch online service has always existed... and Nintendo charging for online ISN'T a new service... nobody said it was. Cheating has been an issue in Splatoon 2 for a while... but NOW it's relevant and important to discuss because now people will be paying for the online service. That's what the thread means... "starting off with a bang" ... because despite the fact that they introduced Anti-cheat, cheaters are still prevailing... and this is being announced RIGHT BEFORE they start charging people.

102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 also, only casuals game online anyway. 10 minute rounds of adhd fps and other non-genres. get a SP game on the calibur of zelda and then we can talk. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JonDnD 2,608 Posted September 18, 2018 Author Share Posted September 18, 2018 (edited) Check ins and not all games support cloud saves LOL Nes games require weekly sign-in to use off line. (Going on vacation/camping!? Well say goodbye to your library of games, no biggie now, but when and if they roll out 1000+ games over nes, snes, n64, GameCube this will be a major annoyance! That is a pretty big IF as well). Edited September 18, 2018 by Jon2B Quote Link to post Share on other sites
