More expensive.

Yay? I mean, I don't fault Nintendo for selling merchandise. That's fine. I fault Nintendo for pretending this is somehow a "loyalty reward" when it's just something you pay for. Also, I'm not at all interested in "subscribing" for completely random stuff I may not even want.

Where in that article or anywhere else does it imply that Nintendo is pushing this as some kind of loyalty program?

I just... thought that was the intent.

I mean, Loot Crate is a thing already and this is just Nintendo doing their own version of it.

Yeah the article pointed out that other business this is similar to. It's a fine idea I suppose, for those who don't mind the random nature of what they're paying for. I'm just saying there's not much about it that says "loyalty program" to me. I hope you're right and this is just some separate thing.

Those Loot Crate things are so dumb... I'd never sign up for a thing like that.
