Nintendo is giving you something for free.

The other 2 companies are charging money for it.

It's that simple.

That's a big advantage for Nintendo.


Pretty much, but still online services on PSN and Live are years ahead of miiverse


But it's free!

When you are paying for PS+/XBL, you aren't simply paying to play online, you're paying for a service. A service that includes a variety of things such as monthly (free) games, twitch streaming support, regular discounts, online MP, etc. The point is, MP is only a part of PS+/XBL.

Sure the Wii U gives you MP for free, but as a service PS+/XBL is far greater than Nintendo Network. You are simply paying for a better service and most people are very satisfied with the overall service they're getting in retun for paying a monthly fee.
