Nintendo: "Why do they not simply charge a monthly subscription to access 40-year-old games people have already bought three times?"

Nintendo probably thinks the team will be dedicated to stopping emulation. Games must be preserved in their original platforms after all /s.

Oh God, there are 40 year old video games

Pong is over 50. For that matter, Tennis for Two is coming up on 70.

I nearly said "20" but then realized I'm almost twice that old myself and the NES is a couple years older than me. Friggin' millennials. We're ruining the aging industry too.
