Do you think Nintendo fans whom are grumbling right now will actually vote with their wallets this time thru or will they just do their usual habit of muttering under their breath but ponying up? This only makes Nintendo justified into finding more ways to exploit users for as little content as possible as far as I'm concerned. It seems Nintendo fans have little understanding of how economy works. I'm wondering if the majority are 14 year olds?

You don't get it, do you?
By placing N64 and Genesis games in their own price tier, the base package is rendered a worse value retroactively, and the slow rate at which they put games on the service will make sure it stays that way.
If Nintendo is this brazen now, there's nothing stopping them from charging even higher prices (to speculate:$80) for access to Gamecube games, DS games, or Gameboy/Color/Advance games, assuming they even get that far.
Apparently you don’t get it, if people don’t buy it then it won’t stay that way, if people do buy it then they will expand it. However they still offer the exact same service for 20 dollars a year, which is by far the cheapest yearly cost for online gaming. If they decide to raise the base cost I will care, until then let them try fleecing the nostalgia whales.
