    Wow, didn’t think you would take the victim stance so hard. Just to be clear, you’re saying I didn’t reply to you but I need to take my arrogant stance somewhere else? The instigator of this argument is telling me I’m antagonistic? hahahaha

    You can lie all you want about your big-boy pants, the proof is in the pudding when you show your immaturity. You can’t even get the basics of this discussion right. “not only are you underselling the nintendo switch emulator, you are overselling emulators like dolphin etc.” if you don’t see the dichotomy you’ve created I don’t know how to solve what’s obviously a lifetime learning problem.

    Let’s see, was there anything else you actually said? Hmm, now 34.17 is acceptably 34 but not 35 when budgeting bills, idk wtf you’re doing now. More company defending… made up anecdotal shit about your life I don’t believe… and you still don’t understand how subscription services work.

    You can’t see the point of Netflix enshittification so you’re lost there, you think creators are being fairly compensated for the games on the nintendo emulator… lol it’s getting harder to address the BS as this goes on.

    I don’t know how many times I can say this just for you to come back all huffy puffy again. “will pay for something if i find its more convenient. I dont care about paying,” Tell me more how you’re paying a monthly subscription for a free emulator and a mario kart expansion… 4 years, woah. That’s really just mindblowing. Let’s cut the bullshit and actually give real world examples.

    NINTENDO SWITCH FAMILY PLAN - $79.99 yearly subscription (FROM THE WEBSITE) (86$ish x 4= $344!)

    Do You Keep DLC After Expansion Pack Expires?

    No, absolutely not. When your Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership expires, you lose access to all included DLC, N64 games, Genesis games, and other content. You‘ll have 180 days after expiration to renew your membership and regain access to everything. But after 180 days, all of that content gets permanently removed unless you purchase the Expansion Pack subscription again. It‘s designed as a continual service rather than a one-time add-on purchase. You only keep the extra content as long as you keep paying for it.

    Is the Expansion Pack Worth the Cost?

    the value depends heavily on how much you actually play the included N64 and Genesis games. Many criticize these retro game libraries as lacking depth and variety, especially compared to Xbox Game Pass. You can also purchase Switch DLCs individually without the bundled Expansion Pack subscription. Here are normal prices for the major DLCs it includes:

    Mario Kart 8 Deluxe – Booster Course Pass: $24.99

    Buying these one by one costs only $70 altogether – already less than a year of the subscription. And you‘ll own them permanently rather than temporarily renting with a subscription.

    Your cost/benefit analysis is biased and flawed. Like you glossed over before, here are some examples of handheld emulators you won’t lose when you decide to stop paying. They have more games and will last longer, better companies and progressive consumerism (I’m advocating for positive consumerism, not blind purchases). Best part is you’ll actually save some money in the long run, I think we can stop pretending now that other people in the plan and your children are helping pay the bill at this point lol.

      You know, I’ve had a busy day at work. i need to take care of a 5 year old and 10 week old baby. My wife is still recovering from a c section, and i just dont have the energy at this point in time. When i do, i will come back and respond to your whole comment.

      The only thing i want to say right now, is that i dont care that you dont believe that i have responsibilities and can take care of my finances just fine, even whilst paying a subscription to something i believe is worth the money. I don’t care because it doesnt change anything. I still have to deal with it all, i still have to be an adult and some random fart of a person on the internet isnt going to change that.

      Respond soon. Might be tomorrow, but i would like to address all of that BS you posted.

        Take your time, real-life shit always takes priorities. I had most of the day off so I was able to fart around or else I would be in the same boat as you. I’ll be around to help you with seeing reality and developing proper analysis skills when you’re free and ready lol.
