Agreed, Nintendo is flawed and erratic. Especially when it comes to older titles, they spend so much effort blocking any “unintended” game experiences, and just old games in general. I’d say what Nintendo wants, more than just profit, is to control how their content is experienced. More cynically, the company has a massive list of first-party franchises that sell systems and whose fans overlook these issues, whereas other large companies in the gaming industry don’t get that pass. But they do have Xenoblade 1, so it kinda balances out.

You're right, they do want everyone to have that same "intended experience" for a game, which probably goes back to the notion of the "Nintendo seal of quality". Every one of their first party games is made to run well with original hardware, but they can't guarantee a good experience elsewhere. They definitely have a lot of defenders because of that quality. But yeah, they have Xenoblade so that's all canceled out. Perfectly balanced lol

The competitive thing is kind of not Nintendos fault, Competitive gaming as a whole is not profitable, like at all. It's a bit better for Nintendo, but at this point Nintendo attempting to enter has nearly killed the Smash scene entirely and not because of Nintendo, but the tournament organizers. Nintendo likely won't ever enter either because of the Smash Metoo movement. I don't blame them either, the competitive Smash scene specifically is god awful.

It's a shame to think of what could have been if they had started early on and built up a scene organically over time. I think you're right that after that last debacle, they probably won't try again.

pirating their games since 2012, couldn't give a fart about what they do

This is the final nail in the coffin for me supporting Nintendo products. They have repeatedly punished the very people who love their games and characters for too long. I will not only never purchase any games or consoles from Nintendo, but I will be selling all of the Nintendo consoles and games that I own. I am boycotting Nintendo. Plus as an Italian, I am sickened by the racist stereotype character Mario. I can’t even look at that company now. They disgust me.

The Nintendo Switch is very good, but the problem for me rn is that it's at the end of it's lifespan but still sells for full price. If you find a really good deal on one, or get a cheap used on on ebay, that would be worth it because it has great games.

In your opinion, what would make the dlc worth it's price?

Probably Nintendo actually upgrading the service to use things like discord integration, free new games like Gamepass and Playstation plus give you, and actually usable online gameplay for all games.

There is some good news to this, however it's going to be a long time in the future. There's a specific time frame where when a person oduct isn't sold in any form then it enters public domain & abandon ware. I'm sure they'll find a way of putting them on NSO somehow, but there's possible bright point that I don't suspect Nintendo will make their games available before that transpires.

Yeah, having internet archive and other things like that make it easy to access old media.

I love Nintendo games and trust them more than a lot of other big companies, but they’re not perfect. The inflation of price you mentioned really bugs me, GameCube is almost impossible to buy for now because of it. I still buy their products because it’s what brought me and my wife together to play games, and that’s special to me. I wish I had the option to get some of my favourite classics, but being a dad that isn’t possible, so I’ll take NSO as a passable workaround even though it isn’t brilliant

Nintendo is the reason I sail the seven seas. You don't want people to pirate your games? Make them affordable and accessible. Thats literally it.

Well the digital games on the 3DS would take so much space. Nintendo games do appreciate and not depreciate. They still have the games but they will be drip fed on the Switch now. Nintendo has their reasons. I’m more worried about Sony and XB.

It's annoying that they chose to do this so soon. I understand not wanting to support 6th gen consoles from 2004/2005 anymore, but the 3ds and Wii U aren't that old.

The smash community deserved to be shut down after being exposed for having p3dos and pr3dators behind the scene so there is absolutely no way to defend that smash community, The rest I agree with though. The only parts I care about Nintendo are it's developers and it's employees and that's about it. Not a fan of their DMCA bot/ team in Japan
