While I would rather not see this paid model continue to expand, but at least Nintendo continues to do so with the customer's interests in focus.

This is far superior value than what MSony offer.
1/3 the cost and still gives you free games. You may argue that classic nes/snes games are not the same as the games given by MSony model, but they are. In both cases you are getting old games that are only worth a few bucks. I personally like VC content more than 99% of the games MSony offer each month. It also appears Nintendo dropped the 1 game per month and only for that month limitation. This reads as if you can select any game from what is being labelled as their classic library. That has potentially to be FAR more valuable and superior to any of the years old games MSony shovel out.

The only differences where MSony will still obviously be better is in voice chat and possibly cloud saves. Granted, Nintendo's vision for this new app may actually be a game-changer and awesome, but I still think the simplicity and in just having it integrated into the console will always be better. But, at only $20 this is still a far better deal. (especially as I could care less about voice chat, but that's just me)

Still hope they break down VC in E3.

...NES/SNES are worth cents if anything at all. It is very much not the same. Objectively, this you're getting less for less.
