JFG has sentimental value for me. It had some controls issues and a bizarre difficulty spike etc. but the co-op with Floyd was so awesome.

I wonder if part of the reason they add these games by eyedropper is to use them as hype tools.

The Switch 2 might be announced any day now, what is going to happen to NSO? Will they actually port them because it's tied to a subscription rather than a standalone purchase? Or will they start over again?

[–] Mummelpuffin@beehaw.org 7 points 1 year ago

Oh that's absolutely why. If they dumped everything at once people would play what they wanted to play and drop the subscription. By doing this people come back.

If Nintendo doesn't keep NSO as-is for their "Switch 2" people will be EXTREMELY pissed, but it's Nintendo, they're fine with that.

Yeah absolutely - launching NSO with every NES, SNES, N64 and gameboy game from the entire library all there at once is almost the worst possible thing to do in terms of marketing, and all marketers know it. What really could suck for consumers would be if the service never completes the library though...
