This is just an aside, but this might explain why their (online) shop sucks so hard (and no browser on what amounts to a phone without a SIM card?)... It's not just that the UX is a bit clunky, it's that it's a veritable morass of junk, a lot of which is regurgitated ports of PC titles... They didn't understand how online shops work, to be fair all titles still at least play, but there is not as high quality control as I would have expected. I say this as, Nintendo has a reputation and clout as a games developer (honestly none of their consoles have ever been great - they have mishaps in the software world but it is rarer), looking at their store you see a suspicious similarity to steam with sales - in fact as far as software goes a humble bundle subscription is probably a better value proposition. It's just not the rich and high quality, unique catalog people have come to associate with them. Maybe it was always like that regarding 3rd party games, but it just underlines how much they don't understand the internet... |
