    What if the Nintendo switch online was actually good?
    - Online Multiplayer not attached to the subscription service.
    - The Smartphone app would *NOT* exist
    - Could saves for every game. no johns. Also local backups as well
    - Either virtual consoles or the retro game library from day one would have 20 games, 5 from each past console (NES,SNES, N64 and GCN).
    - Also this retro service is mirgratable (Can be migrated to Nintendo's future online service for their next console)
    - Better ways to message friends
    - Party chat and lobbies
    - Dedicated servers
    Other stuff
    - Friend codes eliminated
    - TH-cam, Netflix and all other goodies on the system

      I feel that the online multiplayer not being a part of the service and the dedicated servers are an either/or thing. You can either have the online multiplayer not be a part of the subscription service or you could have dedicated servers in many Nintendo games (Which is currently not the case).

      Ahh, fanboyism in it's finest. You shouldn't even have to pay for a basic feature in the first place. Switch Online should be a PREMIUM service and not lock you out of online play. Wouldn't as bad if it wasn't for the fact that it is a mess right now. The voice chat sucks because you need a phone to use it (except for Fortnite on hand held mode, but Fortnite is pretty overrated anyways), cloud saves doesn't even work for some games, for Splatoon 2 it is basicly a requirement, and we are limited to NES games. There are multiple ways to actually fix the service, like making voice chat built in to the Switch itself, include SNES to Gamecube games, and fixing cloud saves. I get they need to make money but the service just isn't good at the moment.
      Oh but I forgot, we are just crazy idiots.

The shitty nes and snes games you can just download on your phone for free. And also online is free on steam and smartphones. Ps plus and Xbox live gold, while more expensive, actually give you relevant and good games.

    The “service” is about as anti-consumer a scam as one can get without breaking any laws.
    Since the games are all peer-to-peer hosted, you’re literally paying Nintendo $20 to lower the toll booth arm on your games.
    This is why I’ve hacked my Switch to allow save backups locally. I’ve also disabled the Switch’s Wi-Fi as well. As far as I’m concerned, the Switch is an offline console from this point forward and if I want to play online multiplayer games, I have better options on other platforms.

    and whiling Sony give you 6 extra months after your subscription, Microsoft gives you Cloud Saves for free without the need of the subscription. And speaking of Cloud Saves
    You forgot to mention once your nintendo online subscription expires, Nintendo would delete your data that's in your Cloud Save Data, and they only give you a extra week as opposed to 6 months.

      Paid service should get better things regardless, it's for those who're willing to pay to get more just like on online games.
      Nintendo is using the most diabolical company scams they can to gain money, too bad people know them and are willing to show them their shit isn't gonna fly.
      Aren't people tired of getting handed a wad of shit for so many years from companies not just specifically "Nintendo"?
      The same old tired excuses made up shit and supporters who're either stupid as all hell or apologists to just about anything as long as it doesn't affect them.
      heres something that would look fantastic and i'm sure WOULD purchase NSO.
      My versions of NSO -
      Dedicated servers for all available online games
      All Classic games from the past are supported by using a special extension added to the switch in amiibo form or another device sold by Nintendo in order to fix the compatibility issue of the emulator hiccups issues and giving a fully functional gameplay with added online play to (specific) titles.
      Cloud save will be available for multiplayer titles and classics
      My own prices
      19.99 for 3 months 29.99 for 6 months and 49.99 for a full year while 99.99 for entire family up to (12) and a added bonus of free games available each month from "NES titles".
      RThis in my opinion would be something to wait for and makes a whole lot more sense.

      Therein lies the crux of the problem: when you play games online with other players, you're NOT being hosted on a server. There is no multiplayer server on most games, e.g. Splatoon 2 and MK8. You're on a peer-to-peer (P2P) connection, which is facilitated through a series of protocols that Nintendo can enable or disable at will. This has been free on almost all non-MMO PC games since the dawn of gaming, only console manufacturers have gotten away with essentially scamming people into paying a subscription for P2P multiplayer connections. It's a ripoff at $70/year, and it's a ripoff at $20/year.

I am well aware that we were able to do this for free before, and I wish it stayed that way, but even when I do have to pay, it’s only $20 a year. Also, while this is no substitute for proper voice chat, you are now able to voice chat with strangers in a first party games. I think you get what you paid for: 1/3 the quality for 1/3 the price, and I’m completely fine with that.

    Nintendo Switch Online is such a sad thing. The Switch is the ultimate console for me, but now when I'm trying out the app, it's impossible for me to create online play-sessions with my friends since.... well, I can't message them through the service. My real friends don't really play video games, and my internet friends can't be contacted through the service. I launched Mario Kart 8, saw one of my Instagram friends playing Fortnite, but since he is not in Mario Kart, I can't send him an invite. That's crazy! I don't have his number, but we're connected through the Switch's friend's system, I can't send him messages or notifying him that I have started a game room in Mario Kart 8 and want to play together. Even if I payed 20$ It would be nearly impossible to play online with friends.

    "Except with Playstation Plus, you get two major titles every month..."
    I think we have vastly different definitions of what counts as major titles. The vast majority of the games given out by PS+ are shovelware indie games and only on an occasional month do we get an actual good old indie or an actual AAA title. I get it, I can't seriously expect all those games given out to be all winners, but PS+ includes that as part of their service and to be honest, I would gladly sacrifice that without a heartbeat if it would get me a discount in paying for their service.
    And you lose access to those games when your subscription expires so you're also renting those games they give away just like the NES games Nintendo offers.

    I totally agree with you. This isn't worth $20. And cloud saves aren't included with the subscription services of the other competitors because they're free. Like you said, I can play these games on my super 2DS for portability, this is ridiculous.

  • @WiseGuy3683
    @WiseGuy3683 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    Yes, the online is still a massive step backwards from Wii U.
    Yes, the 100+ VC games I purchased on Wii and Wii U didn't carry over to Switch (which is a complaint I also have for PS4 with all the PS Classics and PSN titles I purchased on PS3 and the physical PS1 and PS2 games I have).
    Yes, not having Cloud Saves for all games, cloud saves going away quickly, and not having physical save backups makes no sense and pisses me off (which is the driving reason as to why I'll eventually mod my Switch).
    However, one major thing worth noting is, if you buy enough games, you can use the rewards you get for buying games to pay for online, which is what I did and what I'll do again when my online expires "IF" I feel like playing games online on Switch next year. TBH though, I may not be playing games online on Switch after I'm done with Crystal Chronicles.

    Sure, I know I can afford it but the issue is I’m paying $20 for basically nothing. No dedicated servers for the online we had, No cloud saves for games like: splatoon 2, Pokémon let’s go, and Skyrim. NES games, emulators on your phone. Hell even the Wii could play snes and n64 games...
    _you can afford $300 on a console and $60 each game but you can’t afford $20 a year_
    Refer to debunk #1
    _we knew we were gonna have it sence launch_
    Yeah but delaying it for a year and a half?
    Feel free to tell me what other arguments triggered fanboys say
    _Nintendo is a business_ (Thanks "Belongs in the trash"!)
    They made 5 Billion USD off the switch alone. 17.5 million units sold, 300 a console. Thats not even including GAMES. Just the switch. I'd get it if the switch flopped like the wiiu, but it didn't. 5 Billion dollars is ALOT OF MONEY. they are not a sinking company.

      As much as I love Nintendo, what they did here is pretty stupid. “Hey, you bought an online game! Now give us MORE money to play it!”

      This online service is helping make more games faster with the money it’s getting in

    I don't mind the pay online since it's only $20 year. My only 2 complain is voice chat still needs a phone app, and hate the NES 2 player online. Can't play with random people, but you need to add them on your friend list just to play with them.
