I always knew Splatoon was Nintendo's thinly veiled attempt at besting EA in their business practices.


Yes, because splatoon is full of micrtotransaction, pay Dlc, bugs and the online didn´t work at launch.

Oh wait.


So only paywalls make for poor practice? There are plenty of games I love that have features or aspects I find annoying, one doesn't have to defend everything even in one's favorite titles. Do you honestly don't see how many could be upset about the way it has been handled and these limitations being imposed?
There are literally zero arguments for not being able to choose modes and maps, an update in August? Really? Why can't people choose now? Is this "keeping it fresh" tactic over by then?
You don't keep online communities active and healthy by saying that it will be great in a few months, this site in and on itself is a very recent and very relevant example (vis-a vis the missing figures this year).
Seriously; this is ridiculous by almost every measure.

I strongly disagree that paywalls are required for something to be unfair or poor practice, I'm sure that when micro-transaction bonanza arrives on mobile through Nintendo, you'll be the first one to openly condemn it then.
