Well cloud saves on XBox and PC don't cost anything...

Well of course they don't on PC. Xbox is run by Microsoft they're kind of obligated to embrace cloud storage as they now have their own cloud storage service and give 5GB away for free for any microsoft account. This is a company bigger than Sony and Nintendo combined. They better not cost anything on Xbox. Cloud storage isn't just something that happens, that data has to be stored somewhere and on something. For $20 I don't think we can really ask for more from Nintendo. Up the price and maybe. Financially and technically Nintendo is not Microsoft, so I don't think we can expect them to do the exact same things Microsoft does for what they're charging.
