And yet, as long as your purchases aren't tied to your account, Nintendo is getting everything about digital fabulously wrong.

So, they get praised for a season pass? Twilight zone stuff here.

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,

IMO, the extra maps in fire emblem 3ds is quite overpriced...

To say that Nintendo has been slow to embrace many modern elements of gaming would be a massive understatement. They avoided HD and online gaming like the plague all the way up to the Wii U, and even now many of their efforts still feel half-baked. However, I don’t want to discuss their failures, or where they need work. Rather, I want to talk about what they are doing right, and that would be downloadable content.

 

 

See, I would never say Nintendo is behind the times, they just go their own pace.  And they usually inform the public why.

Sometimes its other companies that jump the gun, or blaze trails that make it look like Nintendo is slow.  

But at the end of the day, its not who did it first, its about how ends up doing it best, or appealingly different.

The results is as you have described:  AOC, Miiverse, etc.  Approaches that make their competitor's offerings look old hat.

I guess.

Their charging for their DLC packs, as everyone other developer is also.

Their adding DLC that could have been in the original game release, as everyone other developer else does also.

So I guess, yeh. OK.

My Vita can Cross buy/ Cross Save/  ps4+ps3=VITA  titles, all with 1 purchase on allot of games. 

 

Yeh, Nintendo is doing a great job.

Only on the internet does Nintendo get praised for the same thing others do, while they get criticized. Sure, some others do it way worse than this, but I don't understand why Nintendo gets a free pass for holding out on content.

Stop hating, this is an innovative idea.
