You can also keep those games in your library permenantly with the Xbox one and ps4, and you get all ranges of games available. So nice to see it available, but it really doesn't compare.

 

That's not exactly true.

 

On the PS4, PS3, PS Vita and XB1 you don't keep the games if your sub lapses. You do get them back when you resubscribe though.

You do however keep the Xb 360 games. In fact, it's even in Microsoft's very faq page here : https://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-account/xbox-live-membership/games-with-gold-faq

 

But more to your point, it still doesn't compare. Because let's be serious here. Old NES and SNES games don't compare to the games PS or XB offer free. Especially when you add in the fact that aside from them pre dating the 32 bit era, they're also extremely easy to find free with roms and emulators

nah I think you misunderstood him. He said "keep those games in your library", which means if you get a "free" game in January, you can still play it in August if you have a subscription.
Here it sounds like Nintendo is giving you a "free" game that you can play for a month and as soon as the next month starts you can't play it anymore (but you will get a new one instead), even if you have a subscription.
