Forums - Gaming - Nintendo online paid service will be bad compared to competition

My bad. When I said $5 I thought we were just throwing out baseless assumptions seeing as what's written in the OP. We don't know the price, we don't know the features, we don't know the games being offered or how it will work. I'd say wait and see before we judge whether it's good or bad.

What are you hoping the correct translation will be?

You can download the games for a month.  Not that you can only play them for a month.

I think its unlikely coming from thé official nintendo site :/

Are you being serious?  Seems obvious that he means $60 a year, which would be $5 a month.  

No, he meant 60 dollars per month. Otherwise he can't do simple math because 60 dollars per year is 5 dollars per month (which would make his question and post totally redundant). And asking 5 dollars per year would be totally pointless, making his comment even more ridiculous. 

Nop i meant by year, because thé way thé peson was saying it looked like hé was thinking thé price would be 5$ à year

The first language of Nintendo is Japanese.

Online should be $29 per year max for what Nintendo will offer, but because of their (paltry) 1 game per month add on, guessing will be at least $59. Suddenly appreciating my xbl games w/ gold that much more smh

News is spreading, hopefully gamers will spit on it and Nintendo will do like Microsoft in 2013 an d cancel all thèse silly ideas and drop thé price

Depends on the price. Also, ifnthe SNES games are good, I'm fine with a month of use. Better than trash indies I'd get zero use from.

Basically on the same boat as this guy, if it is 30USD a year, who am I to complain, namely when I pay for 60USD for a service I barely use year round. 



 

If it's $60 a year, it's a scam.
Same price as the competition (even more expensive, in fact), but 1 NES for a month against up to 6 more recent games almost permanently, and with the competition you have interesting discounts on the Store. But the Nintendo Store is 1 or 2 gen late, and with 32GB stockage...

Oh, yeah, if you pay, you're allowed to use your phone to invite your friends and talk to them. Great... That thing should be 30$ a year, maximum.



It depends on the price
