The service will be terrible this year, but it will gradually get better and better.

They haven't confirmed other systems besides NES, nor have they confirmed improving online play performance. Only if they do these would I consider agreeing.

Even on the go it's nonsensical. You need a completely different device and have it hooked to the internet for basic and standard functions that devices released 12 years ago could do. It's not just a hassle it's flat out stupid and I don't know who in Nintendo allowed this. 

I dont think 20 bucks is going to be the price at long terms but the nice thing is that they going to implement achievements points for credit discounts like Sony and Ms. Pretty obvious isnt it? The other good thing is that multiplayers are going to put more attention on the system.

Absolute nonsense. The PS Vita is portable and does online voice chat and messaging just fine natively.

Voice chat is criminally overrated anyway. Everybody complains about it yet nobody really uses it. It's just a hygiene factor but serves little to nothing towards satisfaction.

I'm glad they don't implement some sort of trophy system (yet) because I regard that as useless garbage, but I believe someday something like that could likely see the light of day.

Adding NES games is good. Probably I'll already own many of them, though. And the price is nice. Let people complain as much as they want, especially those from other bases. They will always complain no matter what and pay triple the price smiling.

What really makes me sad is that they don't replace miiverse. This was the best feature of the Wii U and 3DS era. Just rebrand it and relaunch it on the Switch, it can't be that hard!

So, it's a less convinient service than its last iterations but now it costs money. Well played Nintendo.

It's not that it's hard, it's that they don't want to. I can only assume that and the lack of friend messaging is because they don't want kids interacting with strangers. Just gotta hope Nintendo decides to stop trying to be parents one day.

I am really supposing they will add more games, and a new system every year.
I can see getting GB, GBA, SNES games in the following years.

My girlfriend lives 2000km and we are always trying to find online coop games on switch. I realisticly see I playing NES games with her, sharing the screen.
We already use voice chat on phone all the time, and we would keep using it on phone even if there was a native voice chat on switch.
The service seems to fit my needs very well.

Honestly, it is a lot worse than I thought it would be. But it is what it is, Nintendo should get some good profit from this.
