Seriously, screw anyone who thinks paid online is a good idea.

I wouldn't buy Mario Kart, Splatoon or Monster Hunter if they all have paid online.

PS3 fans said the same thing back when xbl was paid and psn was free and look how that turned out.

 

I expect the argument to quietly shift from "ours is free" to "ours is the best" for nintendo fans just as it did for playstation fans. You see, it's easy for people to shrug something off when it doesnt directly effect them, but as soon as it does (paid online) the lyrics may change a little but the chorus is always the same.

Then my response will be with my wallet.

I won't buy any games that heavily require online, and I won't even bother with the subscription.

Which basically means that whatever console system Nintendo comes up with next has been crashed through the floor in terms

of appeal (see: Mario Kart, Monster Hunter...). My bread and butter, (J/S)RPGs, are found mostly on handhelds anyway. I don't play Pokémon, either.

Now that I think about it, I really don't play online that much. Even when the service is free.

Others may change, but I will remain the same...probably.
