And how does this affect you personally?
>>
>>733729028
I have not purchased a single Switch game outside of a few launch window games because I hacked it as soon as possible and have been living on pirated games since.
This personally affects me because I need chumps to buy this kind of stuff to encourage the production of more things to pirate. I truly and honestly appreciate these people

Okay but when they do that then people say "wow thanks for the rented rom that I don't own unlike how I used to purchase and own them on the wii". Now they give you a desirable old game you can purchase and own that is not tied to a shitty subscription and you go "NONOONNONNOONNOON not like that"

Let's say they put it on NSO, it'd be on the GBA tier with the expansion pack. Theoretically if you were a big Pokemon fan and just wanted to play FireRed/LeafGreen, you'd have to put down $50 for the year and you don't own it versus paying $20 and you own it. Why are people saying they should have went with this option given all the NSO criticism in the past?

They're going to do the same shit with OoT and Super Metroid according to leaks. Rip them off NSO to sell back to you.

>>733731506
Now that you say it like that, it would be pretty good if they sold nso games independent of the online subscription so you decide if you wanted to pay the dub or get individual games for a one time purchase.
>>
>>733729608
Normalfags pay $10 for a cup of coffee, they're used to getting ripped off with a smile on their face. This is basically the equivalent of buying some $10 Starbucks coffee instead of making your own at home, you're paying to save 5 minutes of time getting it yourself.

Sony, for all their faults, has the perfect system for this already. It goes up on their sub service and if you want to buy it separately then it's $10. Maybe Nintendo should charge $5 for the NES games like on the Wii VC and have anything SNES and above be $10, MAYBE $20 for Gamecube games so it looks like

>$5
NES,GB/C

>$10
SNES,GBA.N64

>$15-$20
Gamecube

The Virtual Boy games should be bundled in with a purchase of the headset on their shop.

But they're not letting me own them. Buying them still makes them a rental that Nintendo can rescind at any time. Unless I have a written guarantee that I can buy the game, and then it works on all future Nintendo consoles forever, it's just a bad idea.

In some ways I feel that it makes sense not to devalue older games like is normally done.
Mario Galaxy, if released today, would still be a massive hit and a beloved game. (outside of the graphics, of course)
Time didn't make these old games any worse.
The Pokémon games are still just as iconic and large and fun now as they were then.

But obviously it does really suck that Nintendo is able to break the standard, pro-consumer custom of old/retro games being dirt cheap or free.
Any other studio would sell those games for 5 bucks at most.

$20 makes it the cheapest game on Switch. Even third parties indulge in the tendie tax. Skyrim and Witcher 3 still go for $50 there while it's $5-10 everywhere else

Serious answer?
It sets a precedent where Nintendo doesn't NEED anything to sell their older games. No QOL, no additional features, just the ROM in an emulator with not even a save state system. I find the fact that the line keeps getting crossed as more and more piss gets taken extremely concerning
>>
>>733739550
Cheaper to get a year of NSO
>>
>>733740302
This, not even packaged up in any particular way. Literally just slop in a trough ring the dinner bell.
>>
>>733739092
The reason why games become cheaper over time isn't because it's cheaper to sell an emulator over a new game.
It's people are more likely to buy it if it's cheaper, and old games have less prestige or cache.

But Nintendo knows people will still pay these prices for their old games.
It's like how a Beatles CD is still going to cost you a pretty penny in comparison to something unknown you could find in a thrift store somewhere.
>>
>>733729028
They have carte blanche to release their games with no QOL whatsoever and if you want to play it in any other language, you'll have to buy a different rom again just to have the option.
I wouldn't give a shit if this stayed with pokefags, but considering their current CEO was beancounter from TPC, this is going to bleed through the rest of Nintendo.

$20 is pretty cheap compared to the prices people tend to sell old Nintendo cartridges for. You were often going to have to pay 100+ for the original cartridge unless you had an old gaming nostalgia shop that just so happened to not want money for some reason. I just can't imagine people wanting to spend the money on those old titles, but then again people keep buying pokemon installments when they're all the same fucking game. Can you even self trade Pokemon from those games to newer gen ones? Probably not, especially with how much they hate collectors that try to get every Pokemon into every game.
