Honestly, I still don't think that the features on offer justify the price of the service. I know it's cheaper than the competition, but Nintendo isn't exactly providing a wealth of content or features on the service at launch. 20 NES games at launch is laughable considering the massive backlog of games that Nintendo alone has on offer. If this turns out as another drip feed of one or two new games a week like they've done in the past on Virtual Console, then I just don't see myself paying for the service any time in the next few years at least.

Still no word on which NES games it will come with? It's a bummer they are sticking with NES games for now when there are so many more capabilities. 

That's one of my main issues there. Nintendo could put games from several different consoles on the service from the very beginning, but instead they are limiting it to just the NES for some baffling reason. I also don't really expect those 20 games to be anything out of the ordinary, just the same names that have been released countless times on various systems over the years. Maybe once the SNES, N64 and maybe even the Gamecube are represented on the service it starts to become worth the asking price.
