I mean, it’s Nintendo - if there was a way to somehow automatically charge your card every time you say, hear or think the words “Nintendo”, “Mario” and such, they’d do it without hesitation…
unless you stumble on a brick, fall down and accidentally install a rp2040 on the switch, then accidentally flash picofly when trying to understand what’s going on

I need a fucking online subscription to buy a controller???

That’s been standard for the switch retro controller releases. And yes it’s been bullshit the entire time. I would have liked an N64 one.
But you don’t have the sub (cheap when sharing a family pack) so you can’t play the N64 games anyway.
How I can’t play N64 games without a subscription? 🏴☠️
Because you need it to play them on Switch.

A controller that is useful only when you have that online subscription to play the back catalogue, yes.
The new switch has a whole button that doesn’t work without a paid online subscription 🤪
