Nintendo is nickel and diming us with the Switch!

First of all, comparing the Switch with PS4/XB1 makes prefect sense since this is the closest competition Nintendo has. That's like saying you don't compare the price points of two different cars when you're out shopping for a new car; one car being a few years older, but have come down in price, and a newer car with full price. Of course you compare them! "What else do I get for this price?"

Secondly, I'm opposed paid online, period. BUT, MS and Sony is adding more value to their subscribtions than Nintendo seem to be doing. With PSN+ you get 6 games A MONTH for as long as you're payinf for said subscribtion. In Nintendo's case, you'll get ONE 20-30 year old game FOR A MONTH - so it's basically renting a game for a month. But hey, if the paid online service only is $10, that'll be sweet as hell - but if it costs $50, then Nintendo can suck it. What's new with Nintendo's online service is the shittiness of it, of the low value of the service.

You get two games per month with PS+, it's only six if you own three different PlayStations. The game selection in recent times has been heavily criticized, to the point that many people didn't even bother to download them. SNES games from Nintendo's back catalogue vs. indie games on PS+... it should actually be pretty obvious where you get the better games.

You don't only get indie games, I know that you got God of War 3 or something like that, at some point. But still, you get two games and you get to keep them for a long time. With Nintendo, you have one month to beat the game to your hearts content, then it's gone. You probably have to buy it if you wanna continue playing it. And then you have to buy it again when Nintendo launches their next system. One thing that is cool though, is that you'll get online functions with the SNES games (not so for the NES games thought).
