Nintendo might be unhappy about that, but I am sure they are more happy about already having 8m subscribers. 25% of the userbase to start with comparing with PS plus at 39% is quite good, considering how much less digital savvy they are.

I can see that base dropping considerably once Smash and Mario Kart gets old (and Splatoon stops doing the splatfests later this year). Nintendo doesn't have many series known for good online multiplayer, even the last Mario Party had a lame online offering, which you would think that would've been the perfect game for online multiplayer.

You have to remember, many of those 8m subs are people who are trying out the service for the first time. If their first impression is lackluster, (which going off of the comments I've seen online, not just this thread, seems to be the consensus) that number can drop quickly.
