![]() ![]() ![]() The quality of the online play is the same, there isn’t another app for expansion-payers. While the base service has its own issues (the app only exists because of the Switch’s limitations, it’s not exactly a selling point), the only thing the expansion offers is two new emulators: the N64 ad Sega Genesis ones. Grand Thet Auto: The Trilogy doesn’t offer anything other than HD graphics to make the extreme price-hike worth it.įor context, paying the $19.99 base fee for Nintendo Online got you access to online play for games like Animal Crossing and Super Smash Bros Ultimate, cloud saves for your in-game data, use of the Nintendo Online app, and two Netflix-esque libraries of classic NES and SNES games. But on the other, with the oldest of the games turning twenty years old this year, are they even worth roughly £15 each? Nowadays, you can buy the original games second-hand for a couple of pounds, or even emulate them for free. On one hand, at least Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy contains three games as opposed to just one. Nowadays it’s not uncommon for old games to be re-released with a new coat of paint: we’ve already seen Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, Nier Automata, Death Stranding and The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword get remasters in 2021 alone, usually at the same price as brand new games. ![]() ![]() Let’s start with the Grand Theft Auto collection. What connects these two? Well, both of them recently announced how much their products would cost: Grand Theft Auto: The Definitive Edition will cost $59.99 in the US (£49.99 in the UK), while Nintendo Online’s upgrade will cost $49.99 a year. On 23 rd September, Nintendo revealed that during its Direct showcase that its Nintendo Online service would be getting an upgrade, allowing subsribers to play selected N64 and Sega Genesis games, alongside the already released NES and SNES games. On 12 th August this year, rumours that there would be a Grand Theft Auto Remastered Trilogy (containing Grand Theft Auto III, GTA: Vice City and GTA: San Andreas) were confirmed to be true. ![]()
