Nintendo Switch Expensive Online price is a wee-bit too high

 The yearly $50 tag is cheaper than XBOX Live's $60 and SONY's Playstation Plus $60 tag, but unlike the competition, Nintendo's online service only gives you access to a limited selection of games 20-39 years old... for $50. Nintendo wants $50 a year for a paltry selection of NES, SNES, N64, and SEGA Genesis games that can all be emulated for free...


Where is Goldblum?


Let's just say the internet is not happy about it. They're asking so much for so little. Nintendo blames licensing issues for the price increase. If the SEGA License is too expensive, drop it. To be honest, it's insulting to get something so inferior at a premium price. This ridiculous price point is going to push people towards piracy. All these games are discontinued and made for discontinued consoles, so they are in a slightly greyer area, from a moral standpoint, than pirating current gen games. No, an Animal Crossing DLC that you need to keep paying for, a good perk does not make.
