The Nintendo Switch Online app is one that surprised me. There may be a slow rolling out of games, but I actually use the app quite a bit. It's a great way to experience classics that I never would've taken the time and/or money to buy through the eshop, or find a way to play through other methods. The emulation is mostly all solid now, and the games play as remembered.
So why the fuck is this ugly ass distracting border still here?
It's on every game, looking the fucking same each time. It stares back at me to remind me that yes, someone was paid not only to create this ugly ass gradient, but to not even allow me the option to turn it off. Or to change it to some other design that might even be equally or more ugly!
There was a brief glimmer of hope when I played Goldeneye on the app, as there was a widescreen option there. But nah, only available for that game, nothing else.
The big excuse is "oh, I'm sure its primary function is advertising so whenever you take a screenshot, everyone knows it's from the NSO app." Ok, but the Switch allows for developers to apply a watermark to their games!!! Nintendo couldve done the same here!!!
Shit drives me crazy, and I will never not bitch about it. Maybe they'll fix it when I'm dead. But for now, I am living in hell.
