They did do a better job on the 35th anniversary though.
No, they didn’t.
For the 35th anniversary, they did all this.
They removed Mario 3D All Stars from the eShop and stopped selling it in stores to get FOMO sales so people would care less that it was a lazy overpriced cash grab collection.
They removed Super Mario Bros. 35 from the eShop and shut down the servers, making it completely unplayable.
They removed the ability to upload levels in Super Mario Maker 1.
The way how Nintendo has a complete inability to understand modern, usually online, entertainment services, is truly an achievement. Just creating an NNID for your console is already a colossal pain in the ass, but it doesn’t begin or stop there. The way how fairly modern games got their entire service lineup completely shutdown is just unacceptable
Well I mean, they also ADDED Super Mario Bros 35 to the eShop, for free. You can’t just mention the removal as if it had always been there. I agree it was shitty for them to remove it though, it was one of my all time favorite games. But I’m at least happy that I got to play it.

You paid a subscription for it. It wasn’t free. Just like any other online game, there’s no reason it has to die.
