I'd charge $50 a month but you get to take them anywhere you want on your 3DS or I'd tier it like Netflix. X games/month for however much. Makes perfect sense. People will still buy the replayable games as well as subbing. Hell, do it for Wii/DSWare too.

Yeah, would be a better idea to use a tier system, because not many people would have enough time to justify spending $50 a month. Nintendo really doesn't capitalize enough off of their immense back catalog of games. It's a stupid decision to lock games to single systems and their current pricing structure makes many games look overpriced. If you can get Super Mario Bros. 3 for $5, it doesn't look appealing to have to pay the same amount for some "just good" game.

Charging based on what generation the game was from was idiotic. The pricing in general just feels awkward. How they release games is awful too. 3 a week or whatever it is is pitiful. Surely the 3DS is capable of playing NES and SNES games not to mention N64 games so why aren't they available? Why aren't Gameboy games available to the Wii? How about Mario Brothers or Kart or Zelda collection packs at a discount?

They're sitting on a goldmine.

Edit: And they should add a DS slot to the Wii-U.
