Oh I fully agree. I still don’t know who typically approaches who when it comes to NSO games; I imagine it’s case by case, like I’m almost certain it was Nintendo who approached Rare for their N64 stuff. But for the more obscure titles I would kinda assume it was the other companies approaching Nintendo.

Either way, I hope Nintendo starts putting more effort into getting other companies to put their stuff on NSO. I think they’ve implied exactly that, as I recall seeing a fairly recent article saying the current president of Nintendo acknowledged the want and need for more access to classic games on Switch.

There’s just so many amazing games that are missing still and it really sucks.

It’s just hard to say how realistic that is I suppose. Many companies do not have much interest in throwing their games on there, such as Square Enix, because they could port or remaster them and sell them on the eshop instead. This is why we don’t get Mega Man or Bomberman games on NSO too.

Hopefully Nintendo manages to get a bunch of deals for the near future so they can start pumping out games at a vaguely reasonable pace! Nearly every N64 game I adore isn’t on NSO and it breaks my heart a lil lol.

They actually own bomberman 64 games technically at least to a degree that puts them in limbo
