      @@fresh7835 I'd rather just pay for the nintendo version (whether it is virtual console or not), considering emulation has a lot of lag, whether it is the video or the audio. And plus, the Switch online expansion pack is 50 bucks for individual membership (which I assume most people use).

    The issue is that most people don't have all of the base games and aren't interested in all of the games, so for 80% of Switch users just getting the option to buy them separately would be waaaaay cheaper, plus they will work after the discontinuation of NSO

    I got it day 1 and it was definitely worth it for me. I never was a Sega guy, but Sonic 2 was a game I really enjoyed. I mainly got it for the N64 games, which I still play to this day, but when the Mario Kart 8 DLC came out, I was relieved when I saw it was for free with the Expansion Pack. Happy Home Paradise wasn’t really my cup of tea, and Octo Expansion I already owned, but I can’t waited to see what else will be in there. (Hopefully Splatoon 3’s future DLC) Oh yeah

    Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion ALONE costs R$: 99 (US$: 18,83) with Animal Crossing DLC being a little more expensive R$: 128 (US$:24,34).
