"crappy NES games"

I wouldn't argue they're crappy, I'm just tired of them. Its like Sega releasing another Genesis collection, I'm bored of it and its easily accessible elsewhere. Hence, it feels like a crappy scenario that we get the same games over and over.

Frankly, I would rather pay more and get access to many more games like Xbox Game Pass. Which has more recent content, retro stuff, etc.

Around the Network

It's not like one could actually plug a physical disk into the Switch. Besides... with half the Wii U library on it... it's basically a virtual console in itself. :P



Feel free to check out my stream on twitch 

Its lacking at the moment but if they continuously add more games from a variety of platforms than it will be a very solid service even if the price does increase over time.
