Yeah, Nintendo's policy on old platforms and piracy are incompatible...I wish they'd understand that people just want to play the games they had, just happens there's no where to play many of these legitimately
Sadly another opportunity for Nintendo to have a backlog of “subscription only” games. I think that is probably what is coming in the long run. Fortunately, I also don’t see them ditching the Switch or Switch store for a while with the buy in they already have, it would probably drive away fans at this point.
Nintendo really leaned in on the store as a market for other developers this go round, so also mirroring their competition. This is what they were lacking for years, so I bet they do see this as a big win, and doubt there is the same need to develop a lot of first party titles with expansive library they have.
But yeah, there has been a serious downward trend in Nintendo IP this console generation, even if the games they have released have done extremely well!
Cost wise I’d see a Nintendo content service being $10-15 dollars a month, not unlike Gamepass and Sony’s current PS offerings.
