So, for those keeping tally at home, should someone who never played it before wish to enjoy the entirety of a game from 2017 on their 2025 console with “support for the ZELDA NOTES game-specific service via Nintendo Switch App, improved frame rates and resolution, faster load times, and HDR support”, they will have to pay a total of $90 for the privilege to do so.
Add this potential price-point to the console’s already-$100-over-Nintendo-standard $450 retail tag, the $10 being asked for a Nintendo Switch Online membership to play online (or $50 for the ‘+ Expansion Pak’ membership should they wish to play any of the Switch 2’s Nintendo GameCube classics), and the already stark $70 minimum for first-party games, and what should have been a family-on-a-budget-friendly console option quickly begins to turn into a gigantic money pit.
It's the choice between feeding your 'cat baby' or going without your precious current thing cons00mer console.

Or just buy a used copy of the 2017 version for ~35$. Or hoist the black flag for free.
What else do manchild Nintendo soybeings have to spend money on? Craft beer and dog treats?
