Expected, but always nice to know
While it’s clear that all things have to come to an endsometime, a recent discovery in an official Nintendo-branded Hong Kong retailer leaflet indicates that yes, the Nintendo Switch Online program will stop giving usNES games. No window was given, but Nintendo will pull the plug on the NES portion at some point.
That also opens up Nintendo to sell SNES remotes for Switch “exclusively for Switch Online members,” cleaning up among the collector crowd. Rinse and repeat for any other platform down the line that the Switch can accurately emulate: baby you got a stew goin’.
