I think you should give this guy the BOTD, don't start a flame war before he even gets here.In before CH2001 sees this thread and barges in yelling "NO IT ISN'T AND YOU'RE A COMPLETE ****ING MORON FOR BELIEVING IT MIGHT BE FOR SO MUCH AS A MICROSECOND!!11!!!one"
There will be lag because of how matchmaking is, it got better after release but occasionally you'll get it because it is p2p. I wouldn't say online is good but if you want to play online you gotta pay that $3 man.I want to play online, but I've seen videos and most are saying that its bad so should I still purchase it?
Black font over a dark gray post background...why do you torture us?I am not an experienced player but I enjoy playing against humans over bots so IMO, yes.
Trying to get used to lag.
Pros: NES games & the ability to back up save files.I think you should give this guy the BOTD, don't start a flame war before he even gets here.
I'm sure we can lay out the strengths and weaknesses of this service in a rational way.
How is that supposed to help? A Wii can't play Switch games.If you really want to play online, I suggest hacking a Wii instead
I think that's a good point, so I will start with the strengths:I'm sure we can lay out the strengths and weaknesses of this service in a rational way.
Well the online hasn't exactly gotten worse but it hasn't been better either.I could probably look more into either sides, but I think that could be a start in terms of at least my own thoughts.
I don't understand your ruleset statement. I literally did a 1 GSP to (near) elite challenge with Snake and I had a good, competitive ruleset 95% of the time. In Elite, I've only had 1 game in the last several hundred with something that's not Timed, Stock, No Items, and that single game just had Smash Balls on. Preferred rules are anything but as broken as you're claiming.in my experience the online service with most games is actually pretty decent. splatoon's online is incredible, mario kart 8 deluxe runs fine, and smash ultimate on a connection standpoint is pretty good.
the downside is a pretty big one if you like smash ultimate. i did say smash ultimate on a connection standpoint is great, but unfortunately, that is literally the only good thing about the game's online right now (unless you like casual rule sets, in which case, online for you should be fine). preferred rules are completely broken right now which, on a competitive standpoint, hinders matchmaking too.
if you plan on getting the online service for smash ultimate and smash ultimate only, don't even waste your money, but if you want to play any other game online, i highly recommend buying the online service.
i have stated this before, and if you still want more details after reading this shortened version, i recommend reading that post.I don't understand your ruleset statement. Preferred rules are anything but as broken as you're claiming.
Difference is that food they have a reason to charge for, but Nintendo's online would remain the same whenever it was free or not. So that means you are paying for nothing20€ isn’t much money for a whole year. Just think about what you waste when going to mc donalds or buying candy at a supermarket. Some people are so sensitive when it comes to paying something for videogames.
