Yeah, I'm mad when Sony and Microsoft do it as well. Steam manages without. They don't make you pay for online because they need it, they do it because they can get away with it. Nintendo are no different, and all it's doing is decreasing the value proposition on a console that is already £60-£80 too expensive.
