well, were these supposed to be good news? because it sounds to me like "you have to play our games on our subpar console much longer than you may have expected"
@GrailUK yes, but... "This review originally went live in 2006, and we're updating and republishing it to mark the arrival of N64 games on Nintendo Switch Online."
"There were about 120 cinematics to do, it was too big an overscope"
I was frustrated how much cinematics were in Dread mainly at the beginning. Metroid does not need any cinematics, they just constantly interrupt the flow of gameplay....
@Cosmo_Joe actually nobody says anything about the price ...but more like why there is the AC expansion, why we have to pay 30 dollars more for another 9 games from N64? why there are those Sega Genesis games when nobody has ever asked for them? Ppl has been asking for GBA/GC/N64 games for ages!
@BloodNinja exactly ..Does Nintendo want to fight warez emulator sites? Then they should put around 1000 old games to the NSO service. I mean, cmon, its been 4 years and there are only 100 NES/SNES games combined and after 4 years they decided to upgrade the service with 9 ...yes... 9!!!!!! N64 games ....That´s sick, that´s arogant, that´s absurd, that´s ridiculous.
@Jayenkai what? it is not ideal at all ...What does Animal Crossing have to do with NSO? What does the expansion have to do with NES/SNES/N64/Genesis games? What does the expansion have to do with players paying for the service to play all those old games? The expansion has absolutely zero use for them, but they are forced to pay for it. Nintendo must have gone mad...
Putting the AC expansion to the Expansion Pack was a big big mistake and failure .. 1. first, it made the service more expensive 2. second, what the hell has the expansion to do with NES/SNES/N64/Genesis games? 3. third, it caused a big confussion among AC players wanting to buy it
i just do not understand who´s idea was to merge NSO+EP and the DLC for AC ...I mean....why? ...Why put these things together? It just made NSO+EP more expensive and AC players confused...
I think the worst problem is not the price, but the content we get for it. We all know how lazy Nintendo became in terms of releasing new NES/SNES games in the last years, how Nintendo does not care anymore at all. First, Nintendo released new games (mostly good) evey month, then it was every three or four months (mostly garbage). So even when we know what games are gonna be released in the future for N64, like Paper Mario, people are sceptical and frankly justifiably. There is just not enough games, released or planned, for people to say that it's all worth the money. Because to be honest, there is a high probability that Nintendo will abandon releasing new games for N64 sooner than we would want to admit. Judging the current NSO status, the high probability is basically the certainty.
the music is just awful ...I mean when I image myself playing this game and listening to such one-instrument tracks filled with neverending shredding notes for hours, I can see killing myself...
it is OLED so it can cause the burn-in problem ...it can be easily avoided by developers who might add some options to turn off the HUD, which always is static and it can cause the problem

Re: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Release Date And Pricing Revealed

Re: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Release Date And Pricing Revealed
@Bearzilla823 but that´s per year, meaning per month it is 4 bucks, so no change
Re: Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack Release Date And Pricing Revealed
I mean the price is not bad at all, as it was not changed (4 bucks per month), but you have to buy the whole year in advance ... that´s questionable
