No, not until the online service is improved.

Yes, to play Dragon Ball FighterZ with my friends.



If Smash didn't exist, I would say no, but because it does, I am basically forcing myself to.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

I was really hopng to know the advantages of the online service, but they haven't even told us if we're going to have discounts for buying digital. No real VC, the cloud saving feature is woefully incomplete, no easy voicechat... It's a big no for me, which saddens me because Splatoon 2 is my favourite Switch game. I know that I'm going to have to buy it when Pokemon comes out anyway, but man, what a farce.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Come join The 2018 Obscure Game Monthly Review Thread.

For the Netflix style VC alone I am getting it.

I actually don't care all that much for online play either, as I mainly play local multiplayer; but I still like to have the option to do so.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

I almost assuredly will to play Smash online.



As much as I think it could've been better, I will be buying it. I want to play online MP in Splatoon 2, Dragon Ball Fighterz, and Smash Bros Ultimate. I wish free online didn't end next week.

Yes. This service will probably wind up paying for itself. All Nintendo has to do is offer 5% off Indie games, and it becomes more than worth the price for me.



No. I'm having Microsoft pay for it.



I play Smash 4 online everyday and I plan to do the same for Ultimate, I have no choice
