Also 20 NES games at launch is way better than I thought and some of those will be really fun with online play. Hope it won't always be limited to NES but I had braced myself to just get like Balloon Fight at launch and nothing else lol

Either way it's kinda underwhelming but if anyone wants to put in the effort to buy an 8-person family plan for a year together (I am down) it will come out to like a little over $4/year for the service so I can't really bitch about it lol

I guess cloud saves are better than nothing until they let you back your saves up on SD card

Wasnt Virtual Console just a brand term for digital versions of old games, which they're already doing on the switch and every other console now anyway. It just means we wont see the word Virtual Console on astore front

ninty makes perfect portable emulating device, is "not interested tbh" in porting classics to it im really happy with my switch but they have their head up their rear end on this. unless they plan to have a huge catalogue of games available through switch online. maybe we'll see at e3

Hell its what the rest of the quote says "There are a variety of ways in which classic games from Nintendo and other publishers are made available on Nintendo Switch, such as through Nintendo Switch Online, Nintendo eShop or as packaged collections."

It just means we wont see the word Virtual Console on astore front they should say that specifically then instead of "no VC" and the switch being completely dry on classics for a year unlike all their other systems isnt a good sign

I should be able to download and play any and all games and DLC I bought digitally on the WiiU/3DS onto the Switch. Same with PSP/PS3/Vita games on PS4. (It sucks that a lot of 360 games like Army of Two 40th Day, Ace Combat 6, 50 Cent etc aren’t playable on XBO yet but at least they’re putting forth some effort) The technology exists for all of this and it is possible despite whatever bullshit Sony says about the PS3 being powered with VRIL tech or whatever the gently caress. If the next generation of consoles also ditches backwards compatibility I’m going to be a PCuck retard for the rest of my life because if I buy a digital game I should be able to play it for eternity on whatever new system that company makes, and that’s the bottom line cuz Stone Cold said so!

theres really no excuse for the switch not having the entire first party wiiu/wii VC catalogue available on it on launch or close to it lol

Companies will only add that stuff if they're not making money on the games they're developing and selling, which is why Sony and Nintendo don't really give a crap about selling 2,000 copies of Ghosts and Goblins when they're moving a billion copies of Zelda and God of War

Ghosts n Goblins is, except for a few plot elements, basically the same as God of War
