That sucks. I will let the subscription end and will be done with it. I will be left with an absolutely fantastic, but utterly useless, MD controller.

GameCube is coming to Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack

I think they could, they'll just do it during a part of the year when they don't have big releases of their own, and away from the release of the newer Smash game.

I am just speculating but I don't think it gets updates very often as far as I know. Last update was end of November that included Vector man and Toe Jam and Earl I believe.
Let's see if Sega makes the jump to the Switch 2 service.

What time is it?
You are correct. It lost Steam after 2022. Two updates in 2023 and one in 2024.

While I am glad GameCube emulation is coming to the Switch 2. I have no doubt it will fall short of what you get with Dolphin. Hopefully they will add Dreamcast, 3DS and Wii emulation. They could even sell a wiimote and sensor bar. Would be definitely worth it then.

Wait, they are not rendering at higher res? Sigh…

Hopefully we get RE4 on the service too. And Eternal Darkness. And Wave Race Blue Storm. ...it's weird that this is the thing I'm most excited for.

Me too. Everything, related to GameCube, made me more excited.

Online with my normie friends though.

I still think they are going to Remake Twilight Princess. There's no value in releasing the poorly outdated Gamecube version on NSO
Edit: Also While MP2 was a Gamecube release originally, MP3 was a Wii title. I still think MP2/MP3 combo pack is coming

How's the player pool though?

They've already remade Twilight Princess in 2016 a few years after they remade Wind Waker neither of which made it off the WiiU somehow.

That was a remaster. I'm saying a Remake.
WW is a Gamecube game that still holds up. Twilight Princess doesn't quite hold up on Gamecube and would benefit more from a full on Remake.
yep i took as a sign we'll get WW1 remaster or WW2.

I’d rather be able to buy their games than rent them. I’ll stick with my GCN. I already have almost all of these games.

Wonder if we'll be able to use the Wii U adapter for this. I doubt it.

how big is the player pool of people wanting to play laggy GameCube emulation online in any form?
not big I'd say

A lot of assumptions but that aside, the NSO pool of players will assuredly be larger than the Dolphin emulation scene.

You can't buy them. You get them through the NSO subscription service.

Still can't believe Nintendo thinks it's a good idea to have hideous borders on the side with your profile icon in NSO. In 16:9 they're gone but Wind Waker is 4:3. It's very distracting.

How is NSO sounding "worse and worse" by continuing to work how it always worked?I beg your actual fucking PARDON! WHAT THE FUCK?
Wow...so this shit is just sounding worse and worse by each passing day.
This just means people's subscriptions will include more games than they did before.

By not making an option to just buy the games separately and have the service optional....
They can still have that subscription and still allow games to be bought individually
Woopah

That would be better yes, but that's not how it worked for 7 years.
The GameCube games will work the same as every other NSO system, so nothing is getting worse.

Is it legal to

why is that relevant? Dolphin can also run the discs you rip on your Wii you know?
pretty easy to do as well.
all you need is a USB stick and a Wii or Wii U.
and that's legal.

I mean, I could... I have a Wii and a Wii U, and both of them have tons of my disc games stored that I could copy over to my PC in a few minutes.
many people do that. due to how easy it is and how good the homebrew software is for Nintendo stuff, I bet Wii and GameCube emulation has the highest percentage of actual legal use cases out of all systems.

So zero improvement in regards to consumers having options then? Got it....

Is the GC controller going to work properly in F-Zero GX with the analogue triggers?

Yes. But they never mentioned any improvements in the GameCube section so I don't get why you are so shocked.So zero improvement in regards to consumers having options then? Got it....

Because it’s a poor service where they never release all the games that people want, you can’t ever own them, and they trickle out over a decade. Bring back the ability to buy these releases, and don’t take an eternity to release them.

Digital Foundry said about 2x higher resolutions on X and Y axes.
The first comparisons also confirm a much sharper image on Switch 2 vs GameCube.
