For you it was the biggest "I TOLD You So!" day in gaming news with Housemarque adding resume feature to Returnal some 6 months later and Nintendo's overly expensive online service being crappy emulated versions w/ bad graphics that can't save properly.

For me, it was Tuesday.

It seems like the N64 emulator quality is poor, but if they improve it I will reconsider subscribing. Such is my loyalty to Nintendo.

Actually it's good. The only thing poor here is you, for not giving Nintendo your $4 per month to play Mario Kart 64.

ive already logged eight hours into n64 and two into genesis and i only have one gold medal in sf64. think they earned their fuckin 2.50 for the expac this month

Honestly the price isn't as bad as people have been complaining about. It's $10 cheaper than a year of PS Plus and you get an epic selection of classic Nintendo and Genesis games

exactly. also its not like youre not gonna own switch online, so its only 30 more per year. if you do anything with the animal corssing stuff or beat more than one game on 64 in the next year its fine. people getting up in arms over small poo poo

The oot port’s not terrible but there’s more input lag that you may or may not notice and the fog is broken which makes some areas look a lot worse than they used to. some textures are broken too

basically every other game seems fine except for OoT for some reason lol

fog is weirdly hosed up, like inverse of what if should be. the real problem is input lag is awful, but if you've played old console games on an hdtv without an upscaler it's not any worse than that. weird that it's only like that for 2 (or 3? yoshis story maybe too) of the games though

The Genesis emulation is better than the lovely pack Sega put out, but obviously not as good as individual M2 Sega Ages games.

Of all the emulator frontends, I think Nintendo's rewind feature is one of the easiest, so I like playing games available with Switch Online. The most bizarre rewind feature is in the Namco NES Collections, where it jumps back an arbitrary 5-8 seconds to where it thinks you messed up. For most games it guesses correctly. For Legacy of the Wizard it has no idea.

If you claim the Animal Crossing expansion pack then the difference between the basic NSO plan and buying the AC expansion separately vs the new plan is only $5 a year. Which makes me wonder if they’re going to offer something similar each year or if it’s just an introductory thing

The rewind feature for the Namco NES games is bafflingly bad. It’s a good thing I’m a Mappy Master and don’t need it.

If they do another DLC pack-in the decision will be a lot easier. As it stands, I can be patient for these games to be done the honor that they deserve.
