once consumers see what Nintendo has as DLC they will realize they have been cheated on with content worth less than it is by other devs. They will either stop buying unless more is added or keep on being idiots and suck on whatever is given to them

lol No. America will never stop to buy EA's DLC. Never

No, they will get worse as long as consumers are willing to pay for it.



Everything will continue being as shitty as ever!

What's special about this dlc?



Nintendo has the power to set a standard on DLC pricing in a way almost no one else can. They're competitive on content/$ -- it'll prompt others to stay competitive



I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

How is nintendo coming into the fold supposed to change anything for other developers?

Dunno if your referring that question to the opening, cuz i have no answer. That said this DLC is a very huge thing overall though.



Yeah this will not stop them. Nintendo's design philosophy is great but it doesn't endanger them any, most of the big DLC/Microtransaction companies don't do business on Nitnendo's consoles anyways. And if it would of caused change it would have been when Fire Emblem came out.



I could see Ubisoft being influenced, but it's highly unlikely. EA on the other hand will continue doing what they do.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
