You need subscription for online games/function but that's with every console. Nintendo has either cheapest or 2nd cheapest (idk xBox prices).

The new function is discord without being bound to discord

It's the cheapest for a reason, it's generally a terrible service

Isn't that because they don't use dedicated servers for multi-player? I think even smash bros uses peer to peer connection that has horrible lag.

Then wth are they charging for? If its a subscription it goes towards the server but if its peer to peer we are paying to maintain the server and access to our own server

Nothing. It’s a racket. But it’s been the norm since the first Xbox so consumers pay it without question

Every fighting game ever uses peer to peer. Dedicated servers are not strictly superior, it depends entirely on what the game is.

Yeah, that one is a legit complaint because it makes the game much worse

Matchmaking servers and hosting player stats data, not to mention the virtual consoles that come with the sub
