I think Federation Force was kinda overhated, and the ball minigame was pretty cool. Metroid Other M, flaws aside, I honestly still enjoyed.

Haven't gotten Dread yet, because it was surprisingly sold out.

To think, people were upset at paying only $20 a year to use Nintendo's service, and get NES/SNES games. (Which technically is much cheaper than Virtual Console was, or even Netflix, or Playstation's/Xbox's subscriptions.)

I admit, as much as I love Nintendo it upsets me, because I really wanted the N64 games... I suppose it's still cheaper then VC, and such, but still... Annoying...
They should at least offer more, like an Eshop % discount, or something.

And the Sega games are kinda redundant, and not really worth paying the extra licensing fee, because most of them were already released on the Sega Genesis Classic Collection cartridge game. (Which sometimes goes on sale for half price on the Eshop.)
Even the Castlevania & Contra Sega games are already on Switch in the respected Castlevania & Contra collections.
I already have all of those.

I wish Nintendo would just make collection games like everyone else... But at least, we're finally getting Banjo Kazooie on Switch.

Still, annoyed. To quote the VGcats author, I feel like a beaten wife with Nintendo sometimes... No matter how many times they bitch slap me, I still love them

Eh, in fairness, the WiiU was very backwards compatable, (could even use GameCube & all Wii controllers) and for awhile Nintendo was the only one offering backwards compatability.

Also, many Switch games do use voice chat. (Sure you have to use your phone, but it still works the same. I've used it before in Mario Kart 8, and such.) And frankly most games don't require it.

And furthermore, Nintendo doesn't make the Pokemon games, and the original intention wasn't to force us to get both versions, nor are you required to get both, as they are essentially the same game. They only have a small ammount of exclusive Pokemon, and the point was to encourage trading them between games.

And Sony & Microsoft have done greedy things too. (Heck, they're consoles always cost way more then Ninty.) So honestly, Ninty isn't the only greedy one.

Not justifying the premium subscription option, as that still does kinda piss me off. Even $40 a year would've been better...
Not to mention the family plan is even ridiculously higher.

The physics are noticeably different in the SMB1 format, (the developers said they updated that) but the SMB3 & SMW ones don't feel like the NewSMB physics to me.
No reason given
