So after the free trial ends you can't do anything, like add friends, etc?
Phone or nothin pal
You can't just make up fake OSes like that.All I'm wondering is if they will have a windows phone companion app.
They don't even have basic features rdy for launch...wow.
"The paid online service will be available in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico only at launch."
So it's going to be VC games that get replaced each month to go against PS+/GwG? Oh, Nintendo.
Pretty much. Thanks MS for ruining everything for console gamers. Consoles are offline for me from here on. Fun.The worst online system is now under paywall.
Yeah, this all sounds incredibly strange.Please tell me this functionality will also be native to the console....
If not, I literally cannot fathom this.

What the fuck. This is Nintendos decision.Pretty much. Thanks MS for ruining everything for console gamers. Consoles are offline for me from here on. Fun.
I have to, have to imagine that the app is just a bonus second screen kinda thing instead of being integral for party invites/chat.
Even Nintendo can't be that fucking stupid.
I'd prefer Nintendo classics over the shit we get with PS+ every month tbh

I'd take 3-5 games a month over a Nintendo classic i've probably already played tbh.
It does sound a lot like the OS level stuff is being sidelined into smart phones ...

Yes but who started it?What the fuck. This is Nintendos decision.

Voice chat is TOO TOXIC and text chat is easier on phones because of their keyboards.
Nintendo smart af imo tbh smh
The only reason I'd ever pay for this is because I have to in order to play Splatoon 2 online. That's it. Even Mario Kart online isn't worth paying a monthly subscription for.
Yes but who started it?
MS was first, then Sony saw how much money they made on it and jumped in a generation later, and another generation later now Nintendo does the same.

Even Nintendo can't be that fucking stupid.
so they don't even have basic online features ready for launch?
Have you used it yet?
So I need another 300+ dollar machine to have online work properly?Voice chat is TOO TOXIC and text chat is easier on phones because of their keyboards.

If it were anyone else but Nintendo I'd agree with you.
But we're talking about a company that released their first two smartphone games with separate friends lists. After hyping up their new account system for months.
...I'm worried. I was expecting them to show this shit.
Subbing to this thread so I can see what kind of mental gymnastics are deployed in order to defend this.
lol take a look at their track record dude

- Our new dedicated smart device app will connect to Nintendo Switch and let you invite friends to play online, set play appointments, and chat with friends during online matches in compatible games─all from your smart device.
A free, limited version of this app will be available for download in summer 2017.
At least there's voice chat but I'm really disappointing that there's no achievement / trophy system implemented.
BALLOON FIGHT IN MARCH- Subscribers will get to download and play a Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) or Super Nintendo Entertainment System (Super NES) game (with newly-added online play) for free for a month.
FFS Nintendo. Jesus Christ lol."The paid online service will be available in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico only at launch."
You don't know if it's bad. In my case it's enough that it's a paywall. I supported Sony at first for the PS+ games but lost the interest after a while, same thing with Live with the GWG games. But for now I'm just voting with my wallet on this nonsense and play online on PC instead if I must. It's a really crappy evolution for console gamers imo :/I wish nintendo would do the same. what they do is worse, they paywall a bad service
