I'm indifferent about base tier NSO; $20 for access to old games I'll play every so often and online gameplay? That's fine.
But please gtfo with the expansion. I'm sincerely interested to see if people are really going to fork over $50 a year for a service where the main draw is old games and
ZERO online features your competitors have for a comparable price.
I have no idea who this service is for. I mean really? We can all go on and on about how we want all these old games but at the end of the day, do people really play these games with any regularity? Keeping that in mind, with a enough regularity to justify paying a yearly (and now, exorbitant) access fee to play them? I can maaaaaybe see this getting new subscribers the first year but dropping off afterward. There's no solid audience for this, right? People who are hardcore about their old games are going have them on their PCs, younger players will have no connection to these games and won't care, any hobbyist will collect the old games or would have wanted to outright buy them VC-style. This feels an earnest attempt at seeing what they can get away with and I sincerely hope it doesn't work out for them.
