Lack of Legacy Content on Switch Hurts Nintendo More Than Us 

"Taking your canon with you to your grave": because liquidated assets are more profitable than maintaining a strong legacy.

Literally play something else. Quite simple

@St0rm Ranger good job thief ;)

@St0rm Ranger You can buy BotW contrary to the games Sufficient is referring to. Emulating games that aren't for sale is sometimes necessary if you really want to play it. But that's hardly a Nintendo only issue. Pirating games is more or less fine if you are a poor teenager. As an adult that's just being cheap.

reminder that according to that EU study piracy doesn't even harm these industries besides maybe cinema, people who pirate games would almost never purchase them either way and somebody playing it free does nothing to remove profit or resources from the company or the paying customers "piracy hurt sales" is a corporate boogeyman with no backing, they are lying to you

@@oldred890 I always likened it to two steps forward, one step back, and one randomly to the side. The Vault definitely wouldn't work nowadays, which makes me even more curious why Nintendo is so unwilling to make their backlog easier to legitimately access. Granted they have little control over NES games from other companies and such, and deals to include them would likely be troublesome.

@Physical Cue Wario with the game behind a massive vault door slamming shut. LIMITED TIME ONLY! WA!

Well this comment aged.

Well, if they get roms from the internet that's piracy

Kamil118 - Yeah, I don’t personally download a ROM unless I already purchased the game (because it can be more convenient) or if it’s too hard to find / was never released.

Which again makes Nintendo no moolah.

This is pretty much why I never bothered with SNES mini or NES/SNES online.

@@kamil118 Okay then give us an option to buy the game. We are literally waving money at Nintendo for them to take from our hands. What's that? You refuse? Well then..

You know what's next and you hate them for liking it just a little.

Sorry about Pikmin 3

@@Random-Draw-Time LMFAOOOOOOOO

Yup, and then pay for it all over again on the next Nintendo System XD It's not that good of a deal.

Honestly, I feel like Nintendo would make the subscription free after releasing the new console. I don’t know why, I just have a feeling

@@pr0xy87 Do the SNES games really run on servers? or are you guys talking about games like Smash or Splatoon?

@@pr0xy87 oh. well... uh... i guess were screwed.

And this is what causes piracy

I could not agree more!

I've been wanting a new Strikers game since the last one came out over a decade ago. PLEASE NINTENDO! I NEED MY EDGY MARIO CHARACTERS 😭😭😭

I really want strikers and baseball to come back. Sluggers was my childhood man

jesus barrera Maybe the team did? But wasn’t Next Level games the ones who made it? The guys behind Luigi’s Mansion 2/3?

theTwiKing Xenoblade getting a remake wasn’t Nintendo’s decision, though; it was MonolithSoft’s. They shouldn’t have their game brushed aside just because other franchises aren’t getting installments, especially since they have no say in that.

better off getting a 3DS at this point

So true honestly. The most toxic Nintendo fans imo are the ones who refuse to acknowledge their favourite company can do any wrong. Nintendo are still currently my favourite video game company but gee wizz they're still stuck in like early 2000s for their practises.

Right. Nintendo isnt cutting the check and they aren't untouchable. They put in less effort then people try to admit

i agree

@@TheFrostedfirefly Dealing with same as a Pokemon fan. Was Sword and Shield at Fallout 76 levels of bad? No. Is it a fun game? Yes. Does it have a bunch of flaws and shortcomings for a $60 Console Pokemon title? You bet. Any attempt to point out a lack of polish or outdated practices is countered with "Well it sold a lot"

yep! exactly

yes - go up!

probably more worried about nintendo

Do we?

Yez, thank you This trend of being scared to have an opinion that others dont agree with and labeling it NEGATIVE Is grinding my gears. Look at BeatEmUps RU-vid channel. His whole 3 Pokémon video apology over his opinion on Sword and shield was and still remains disgusting. Completely took back his entire opinion in a bid to make us believe he now likes the game. If Arlo becomes this....Imma Head Out.

There's a huge difference between constructive and negative, I find that this video focuses on exploring potential and positive solutions to its complaints rather than just complaining.

and the fact that you have to keep paying yearly to get access to them.

@@HUYI1 And how Nintendo seem to think that carrying over purchases from one platform to another isn't worth trying. The Wii U at least had something to help with backcompat and the upgrade thing. 3DS also had DSi support for digital purchases though you could only transfer to a new system limited times.

Totally agree. I hate game/software subscriptions more than I hate freemium games. And that’s saying something

@@piccuh Voooooooooote with your wallet then! And encourage others!

I agree. I own a lot of the older nintendo consoles, and the games that are too expensive I bought on WiiU virtual console.

@ghostgaming What the fuck are you talking about? I have several old gamecube games but still want them available on the Switch so newer players can experience them more easily, not to mention higher resolution and other such improvements.

@ghostgaming Because there's been so much controversy and anger from all those people who are insulted and disrespected whenever Nintendo gives you a new way to play NES or SNES games that they still have physical copies of that they purchased at full retail price when they were released. Oh wait. There isn't any.

ghostgaming ghostgaming “I’m offended that people would get games for better prices” “Lol just pirate them for free”

ghostgaming dude what are you talking about? I literally have copies of GC games and still play on it to this day. I’d LOVE to be able to play games like Mario Party 4-6 on the switch without having to swap discs or bring out an entire console, cables and all. It’s not about trying to one-up people who have already spent hundreds on GC games (because I was one of them), it’s about convenience. I would gladly pay for a digital copy of a GC game instead of having to fork over 40-60$ to buy an original copy off EBay.

Yeah it's great if you weren't there f*ck you lol

And considering you now have to 'pay' to get access to said vault :P... though Disney+ DOES have most of the titles that was in there... I read it's like all of the ones that were so :/

@@JCKane I think almost all Disney things are on Disney+ but they are denying theaters from showing classic Fox movies now. For example, fans of Alien can't watch it during a special screening anymore.

And even then they have their own subscription service and 2 decades worth of DVD's, so you don't have to move a seperate system from the garage every time you want to watch "Piglets Big Movie"

Never thought about it that way but you are right.

lol i love how Nintendo cracks down on emulaters and roms then never releases the games themselves, is there massage here that they just dont want anyone one enjoying their old games?

Same. Offline goodness galore or else my money stays in the wallet. Online only restrictions are lame as fuck. I don't want to turn on my game only to be forced to sit through a loading screen that's trying to advertise mind craft bucks or whatever... Is minecraft bucks even a thing? Probably lol...

That's why switch modding exists

Toastie still pirating

@@FrancoKing419 never said it wasn't

@Jordan Hancock Nintendo is just asking too much from us! 😑

Technically, isn't it still legal to emulate games as long as you own the actual physical game copy? I will unashamedly admit that I did use a flashcart on my old DS, and modded my PSP to be able to load ROMs, but I honestly owned most of those games, I just didn't want to have to carry all of them around with me to University and on the bus. I don't remember who said it, but no matter which way you turn it, piracy is a convenience issue. It's not convenient to have to buy extra hardware or dig around inside your consoles, but when companies make the alternative even less convenient...

hell yes someone else who agrees, diamond, pearl and platinum on switch when?

But how would the second screen work

Use split screen or something, or let you switch between them with +/-? Idk

TangerineTurtles you can control the second screen with the d pad, you don’t need to use the touch screen to send commands to a Pokémon

I believe in it.

Yeah, I'm waiting on that for well over a decade too...

There's a strong possibility that they might do that. Kensuke Tanabe did say that they won't be making Sticker Star 3 and considering that he was the producer of Luigi's Mansion 3 and had taken feedback from Dark Moon he'll most likely do that with Paper Mario. If Paper Mario Switch does end up as a game that's like the first 2, not only would that be great I would go around saying "I told you so".

@@jeremyknight9980 Wait, when did Tanabe say he won't be making Sticker Star 3? Do you have a link to an article where he said it or something?

But it hasn’t been forgotten completely. There’s F-Zero content in Smash Bros. and Mario Kart. I know they’re not new games, but this is exactly what Arlo said. Even if a series doesn’t get a new game, it still gets referenced.

William Cail Hey remember when they said they were gonna release a new snes and nes games every month?

@@hatefulgaming1800 Nintendo doesn't own all that many games on the SNES and NES. Capcom and Konami went for a few quick bucks by selling Megaman and Castlevania through steam and digital downloads. It is becoming more complex to get license agreements with those companies (and probably more expensive as they realise the market for these games).

Lance Woods Licensing issues or not, Nintendo’s greedy slow asses own more than what’s currently offered.

QuesaDylan yeah, that’s what I was thinking XD

he's like toothless. retractable teeth.

Kirby Super Star is an excellent game, Kirby's Dream Course is pretty solid as well

Where's Super Star Ultra? Wii U had plenty of DS games, and a good handful worked well on the console, even the ones that were Japan only.

Yea the switch would have a rough time running ds games. The screen is already a little cramped. It would also be impossible for them to work on the tv(most of the good ds games)

Look at my thumbnail I'm crying right there with you friend.

The only reason I still have a Wii With GameCube controller connected to my TV

@Anomaly That quote "Never forgotten completely" is true. Nintendo hasn't forgotten about F-Zero. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has the Captain Falcon Mii costume and his car, Blue Falcon, alongside two F-zero like courses, Mute City and Big Blue with remixes of those courses while Super Smash Bros Ultimate has Captain Falcon, as the main fighter/representative of the F-Zero Franchise, some courses and music, an assist trophy of Samurai Goroh, World of light fights(/stickers? I think) that represents some of the F-Zero characters, and some trophies. Nintendo should make an F-zero game for the Switch. It would be a great fit for the console. It should have a new storyline for Captain Falcon, other good characters and bad guys similar to F-Zero gp legend, new characters, new courses, new, machines, a lag free online mode (Lag free may never happen, I'm just being optimistic) new music, a sound test to listen to all the music from all the previous F-Zero games, and a gallery room detailing the origins and the history of all F-Zero games. That, in my opinion, would make a great addition to the Switch library.

@@nileriver216 personally I certainly dislike that they put F-Zero material in Mario kart 8. To me it represented "yeah we're not gonna make another f-zero game but here have these crumbs in a game that is nothing like f-zero". It seemed to toy and belittle the fans and the franchise itself. As if you can substitute a true sequel for the technical brilliance of GX with some references in a slow casual friendly kart game. Being in smash is one thing and of course that's okay because that's a collective celebration of Nintendo's history but being in mk is different and rubs me the wrong way. You can't merge the franchises together, it doesn't work. As awesome as a new F-Zero would be as you described, fzero is as dead as 1080 snowboarding and wave race despite being better and more deserving than those franchises at least imo. But as long as I'm alive I hope that I'm wrong. At least we have Super Pilot in the meantime.

F-Zero, the best game franchise of all time, so good that isn't economically viable.

Porting old games in general is free money

Gamecube games would be amazing too

Only n64 games they may not be able to get are Tony Hawk pro skater and wwf no mercy. Especially no mercy considering it was probably the only really good sports game later.

Oh thank god now i can pay nintendo money to play games that i can get for free and with more convenient features, yay

No refunds on digital preorders and no way to know if actual people who bought the game think it is any good... They even took away the casual to hardcore measure from older systems (though I don't think it was that useful).

They are actually starting to do some for Zelda

yep, i dont have the same draw to the much older games (i like modern shiny graphics), but after playing Breath of the Wild, Wind Waker is one of the few previous Zelda games that looks mighty appealing to me. Im sure I'm not the only one, but they just keep NOT porting it.

Homer Dog I think “No” would be more accurate.

They aren’t in any hurry, that’s for sure.

Remember when people were happy when they announced it wouldn't be monthly anymore, that was so baffling that people took that as good news

Thomas McNiel Because then we assumed that it would mean a shorter wait times for new SNES/NES online games, even though monthly was probably the fastest time they could put out SNES/NES games.

No, no, it does hurt them more... it's just that phrase implies it doesn't hurt us a lot to begin with.

if they don't make it reasonably accessible, we pirate it. it's that simple

Ok now we have to make Arlo create a video about a new F-Zero

Can he upload a video about party chat next?

It’s a good thing which games are actually available is entirely under nintendo’s control, huh?

The only reason I can think of for them being so stingy with old games is maybe they're looking out for their indie scene?

It's not exactly a one for one comparison, but people only have so much time to play games, so I still think it would cut into indie sales. I'm not saying "I am right, this is the absolute truth!"

Dude. That would be absolutely awesome. Might actually get me to buy a Switch just to experience playing Air Ride with more than just CPUs

They would never port the old pokemon games, because all of them, including X and Y, make Sword and Shield look bad.

While most of the biggest emulator and rom sites are down they still exist.

Suite Life of Dio Brando That’s another problem honestly. Nintendo is in a way encouraging emulation by not putting out their games. Majority of the people who emulate games would most likely buy them if they were just readily available to purchase.

I know a lot of people claim they would have bought a Metroid 2 remake when AM2R came out, then didn't when the official remake came out only a year later. It also greatly dated people's videos, there where some who included it on their game of the year videos saying how Nintendo would never do something for Metroid 2 and glad fans did. People like the fact that they can get stuff for free and make any excuse they can to justify what they are doing, nothing is going to change that.

​@@party_joey5115 I ended up doing that with EarthBound. I'd like to try EarthBound Beginnings, but not enough to buy a Wii U for. And Mother 3 is the worst - paying hundreds of dollars and either learning Japanese just for that or getting the tools to rip and patch the cartridge with the still somewhat questionably legal fan translation isn't worth it for basically anybody at this point.

ScarfFox and Friends that’s somewhat true; however when people have been given good ways to get content there is a definite drop in piracy. When Netflix first started piracy dropped significantly since it was easier to get a cheap subscription than it was to pirate. Piracy obviously wouldn’t die but it would definitely go down if there was actually a way for people to play these games legitimately without hunting down legacy hardware and cartridges (which doesn’t support Nintendo anyways)

A Random Person Who says? This better not be true. I really want to play some of those games.

@A Random Person The SNES Online library included Breath of Fire, a (not that amazing, so far) RPG from Capcom, _from the start._ They probably can't add a lot of the big ones, since Square Enix has been reselling theirs on their own, but they definitely don't have a policy against adding ANY rpgs.

There’s almost no way they don’t add earthbound within a year; good luck getting any of the other games though

@A Random Person Oh, and they just added Breath of Fire II, which IIRC is much more of a stand-out title even though the translation isn't great at points.

Earthbound, Tactics Ogre, DK Country 1, 2, and 3, Kirby Super Star, and Castlevania 4 are the only big ones I can think of that are missing currently.

Yeah, thoes are good arguments but generally everything is based around certain Market trends and how things will go if only they contuie the exact same route. 1.) The things going south depends on if Nintendo catches the southward drop in time to put out enough content at a 'COst balance' to save their selves, and not at a huge loss. 2.) Online services are a good way to attach newer people, but if that was the case then Xbox Gamepass and the Backwards combality would be making the Xbox more dominate in the market space. Nintendo on it's own has a much more loved and wider varity of games and history, but even that has it's limits to the amount of games people 'Would still play' even if they're attached to a small fee a month, when their friends are playing other titles that are 'newer'. 3.) Stretching the release window has the tension hang that some people will jsut go play other things, leading into my response to 1, that also includes if theirs no Definate idea that 'Their title they want to play will ever appear on the subscription list'. For instances, I could love playing FF14 and pay the monthly subscription for the game cause it allows me to get new Costumes for my charater… I could see that the new costumes are only coming in for Subs, but the Class and charater I choose to play as and 'ONLY' want to play as get's either VERY sparse outfits I don't like, or none at all... Suddenly I'm playing Destiny 2 and Square says 'Here's the costume you liked for your CHarater!' buuuutttt… I'm already playing something else that is asking for my time and money, I might never go back to FF 14 for lack of intrests in the content, THe fact I'll have to replay large bits to get to said content, or just fell dis interested with the product. This isn't being malicious thoes are pretty good points like I said, and the good Muppet has made plenty of his own also, it boils down a lot of wither or not Nintendo is wiling to take the risk andddd… they are jsut super willing to take the long game risk that a hand full of companies do, but at a mixed bag of questions... even when Microsoft gave us backwards compatibility at no cost, the list was longer then 3 - 6 titles each, and had a long slew of Varity.

@Soupmaster101 Even IF they release the game for them, theirs no garentee that they will continue to pay after theyr'e done with said games, and along side that is the realization that 'ALOT' of those games may have already been purchased with the other Several times they re-re-re-released them. Even if the big advantage is to play thoes games on the go, how many times will they continue to Repurchase the same game again and again cause, up till the Wii-WiiU lifetime you couldn't transfer 'Any' of thoes games to the next one (Cept maybe the DS but I never had digital games on mine to test sides the ambassador load which had most all the games from the NES mini and several Nintendo packages) The games on the Online front have a shelf life now, Nintendo has a cycle for thoes titles to be available and then not like GamePass, even if they're First party, the Switch can only hod so many games with it's limited space, and what games can go on the SD card are going to feel abit laggy if you shelled for a cheap card... or suddenly Nintendo recommends you 'NEED' proper internet access to play the games... The future is about as bright as 'Every Company working together without issue'... and if we are going further and further into Hoping companies like Comcast are going to play nicely... Yyyyyeeeaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Accurate

The series is finished, although a compilation that includes 3 would be cool

Undertale to the rescue.

Press F to pay respects to F-Zero.

Am I the only one who has played Earthbound before the existence of Undertale?

Yuuup

That would help for the hype of gen 4's remake

I'm probably just very lucky but there's always the original hardware. My Gamecube and Wii still works and I kept most of my games. Good thing I did because the prices these days are insane.

I can understand how people want to play their older games, I’m one of them. but there are those that actually do bad in doing so. Nintendo has to crack down on it. By legal right, you have to own the games to emulate it. But this would be solved if they just pushed backward compatibility with this NSO quickly. If they get to GameCube games and we are asked to pay an extra $10 on the yearly service, you’re paying not a lot to have access to same games that would cost a ton on eBay or at retro stores. Nintendo has the best gaming history for retro games with their ip’s. They have to hit now while the iron is hot.

@@xxargonautxx9790 so when the switches lifespan ends and nintendo decides to end that subscription service what then? Honestly I'd rather have them purchasable instead so they can stay on the system for eternity.

irina xeno you think their online service will be only locked to the switch? Lol yeah no it won’t. They even stated that they’re working on a online service that will cross over to their other system. They understand the annoyance of people re-buying their games cause they aren’t great at doing online.

Capitalism would like you to hold its money, then give it back with interest.

go buy a 3DS... because it has almost every pokemon game available on it.

@@Matanumi I think you just missed the entire point of the video

You sure do trust what communists teach you about capitalism.

It's GREATly disappointing so yes

Gamer 0206 I would rather buy Xbox live, and I don’t even like Xbox

@@EpicTails Then buy an Xbox

No but you are going to have to PAY for it now...

6 extra games does not a "GREAT" Online Service make.

CEMU: “Hey, how ya doin’?”

Yuup

Like the rapper spm?

Arlo is like THE advocate for returning Paper Mario to it's former glory, and from what I understand he really only feels like it took a downward turn with Sticker Star. Seems he really enjoyed SPM as well I never got the chance to play any of the first 3 more than maybe an hour of SPM at a friends' place, and I'd love the chance to.. if only I had the perfect system to play them on, one that I could play both at home and on the go.... wait.

@@ethanhopkins11 spm stands for Super Paper Mario.

@@FirstNameLastName-oz5ij I feel like Super Paper Mario still retained enough of the charm and aesthetic from the first two games that it should still count as one of the "good" ones. Its why I refer to those PM games as a trilogy.

And then, the cheetahmen

Skelzore Right?! I would buy Wind Waker for the third time so I could play it on the Switch

Its nintendo, they love this shit

Skelzore All Zelda games on Switch would be the best thing. I’ve wanted this since LITERALLY day 1. Or at the very least the day after I beat all the shrines in Breath of the Wild.

Same here, I’m dying to get Wind Waker HD and Twilight Princess HD on the switch. These ports are easy money!

Funny thing is that a lot of us own Wind Waker on GC and the HD version on Wii U, yet we still want to pay for it again to have it on Switch. It's completely free moeny to port it from Wii U (since there was already a mode to play it just with the Pro Controller. All they need to do is remove the Gamepad mode)

Can you give a time stamp?
