question about nintendo thing 

this nintendo switch online thing, apparently you get a bunch of NES games on VC for free with a subscription? Do you get to keep those if the subscription expires?

@Felthry basically it turns out that they have a growing library of VC games. You get ALL of them when you get the pass, and every time they get new ones, you get those added too to your account... I don't... think you get to keep them though.

@Nine bleh

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Felthry yeah it's kinda a shame :< I don't think you get to keep games you downloaded on PS+ though if your subscription expires either though... I mean if you renew your subscript you get access to them again though, even on the nintendo platform at least...

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Nine we've literally never used a subscription online service before, ever

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Felthry ahj fair enough. if it helps nay, the switch's online subscription system is.... kinda ridiculously cheap??

like it's something ridiculous like £10 for a YEAR'S subscription. It's that much for just three months on Playstation 4.

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Nine $20 a year here. I dunno if we use online stuff enough to justify even that though

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Felthry oih i stand corrected it's like... £20 almost ._.; aaand £30 for a year's family subscription. Though that covers up to 8 separate nintendo accounts at least

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Nine oh then it's cheaper here. still, sounds like £20 is cheaper than the playstation one

re: question about nintendo thing 

@Felthry It is a bit, yeah. 1 year PS+ subscription is like, £27. Ninty's offering is more accuratley £18.

Though looking at the FAQ if your subscription lapses, you lose ACCESS to your cloud saves, but they don't get deleted so long as you resubscribe within 180 days, which is like, half a year?
