I'm beginning to wonder if Nintendo will ever put out a proper direct for the coming payed online.

I am pretty sure we will have at least one Direct in September, real question if will be separate Direct for Online or it will be integrated with regular Direct, I am betting on intgerated. :)

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.

To be fair main point of service is playing games online, and from that standpoint of view $20 for hole year is cheap, I mean thats only 1/3 of price of MK8D or Splatoon 2.

I wonder if this will have an effect on sales or free to play games like fortnight. Are F2P games on switch going to be locked behind the paywall?

I think F2P games will not be locked.

No matter how bad and limited Switch online is, y'all will still buy it to play Smash online. That's why they will never learn it.

People enjoying playing online games like Splatoon 2, MK8D, ARMS, Mario Tennis, Fifa, NBA, Smash Bros...so its not strange at all that people are willing to pay only $20 for hole year to play online.
