But it's also money you're probably already spending (at least enough for the base NSO subscription) if you care about playing any Nintendo games online, so it's not even valid to say it costs that just for Game Boy games.

I mostly care about cloud saving after my original switch died, so I don't like having to pay for that. I wish there was a way to copy games to a flash drive

50 bucks for an emulator....
Yeah im smooth on that
nice try nintendo...

50 bucks for 5 emulators + many cool games + DLCs to specific games.

Sounds pretty good to me and I don't even use online.

It's not made for people like you, it's made for people who have no idea what an emulator is

 

[Deleted member 194275]

So they're gonna release a gba game called Kuru Kururin that was never released in America so do you think Nintendo is actually gonna release Mother 3?

Nintendo may release Mother 3, but they will never ever release it in English. The suicides are pivot points on that narrative, you can't edit out.

So if you ever see Mother 3 on NSO it will be in the Japanese app in Japanese language.

(side note: that Reggie Fils-Aime thing with Mother 3 was a lie from beginning, he always knew it would never come, but he pretend otherwise just to boost his image, like he always do whenever he has a chance)

wait NSO gives free games?

 

[aoikurayami]

It´s GB and GBA with online coop, that's awesome. What´s wrong with you people??

This.
GBATemp has gone south..

Finally we get the official "GBA" back.
And everyone complains.

Link cable emulation is a hard job.

I hope SonicAdvance3 will come around ૮ ˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶ ა

I believe the nso online games being talked about is the actual switch games. I said this before and I will say it again, anyone that as an online membership should also be using it for actual online games that get released. I don’t mind switch online because I just don’t use it for the emulators.

 

[HideoKojima]

Time for a next gen console @Ninty

 

[fst312]

These emulators will really be good if they finally let you play with more than people on your friend list. I get it at times if it’s someone you don’t know they might disconnect on you but still, that rarely happens. I’m curious on how the gameboy games work though without the link cable, I feel like they remade them in a sense as if their like nes, snes games to make them work.

 

[Mudkipzzz]

Anyone knows how to put more games into it?

 

[Bladexdsl]

Anyone knows how to put more games into it?

yeah you use an emulator and download the roms

 

[Beaukilla]

Man such a bunch of babies crying here. Go get a job and a life, it's cheaper than the price of a meal at a restaurant. I worked out the nso costs me 0.014% of my yearly income. Fantastic service imo. Look forward to more games being added.

You realise most people here probably just pirate the games anyway so it costs them 0% of their yearly income? Good flex though, we're all well jelly.

Yeah, and there's not any incentive to.

NSO games are just rentals.

 

[JonahPennington]

As someone who grew up playing these games, I'm really excited to see them back in action. I think the cost is worth it for the access to classic games like these. Plus, with the added convenience of playing on the Switch, it's definitely a step up from playing on a school Chromebook. By the way, have any of you tried any money making games? I've heard of some mobile games that pay real money, but I'm not sure if they're legit or not.

 

[Bladexdsl]

imagine actually paying to play these games. those poor fools who don't know about emulation

 

[DumpsterDivin]

Thanks for reminding me about Gargoyle's Quest, I forgot I always wanted to try it out

Nintendo be charging so much money for subscriptions for these old games because they know that fans of these games will have no choice but to pay for the subscriptions if they want the games. How greedy and scummy of them.

Oh wow how generous of Nintendo.

They should have announced GCN/Wii games for the service or to sell on the eShop.

True.
