It has taken us 3 fricking hours just to be able to download a fricking game to start playing.

I don’t want to link my credit card information to my nephews account.

This system fricking sucks.. then I had to buy a fricking year membership to Nintendo for $99

What a fricking ripoff

Not sure if serious...but if you paid $99 to Nintendo it wasn't for no membership.

If you're talking about their online service, they have cardboard that costs more than that.

The family plan is $35 for a year for a family plan... Not sure who you paid $99 to, but it wasn't Nintendo

Your nephew thanks you for the 8th of weed to smoke while he plays his switch.

You understand that’s different from your original post of

“99 dollars to Nintendo for a membership”

So, you got a controller, 1 year of membership, and “one other thing” for $99?

That actually isn’t a bad deal.

What are you complaining about?

What gaming system nowadays doesn’t take time to download?

You're not the only person downloading games. You and a lot more people are on the servers and it's bogging it down. Or your internet sucks. Chill out grandpa

You expected to use companies with limited servers to download games in an instant on Christmas Dat when 10x thousands of people are downloading. Hahahaha.

My Xbox update today is taking like 90 minutes because of the rush, t'is expected.

I'm planning on buying a switch and one game to take on the flight to ATL. can I not just buy it and play the game out of the box? say Luigi's mansion or mario. or will I need time to download it. just trying to figure out how much time I need to set aside tomorrow to get it ready.

You can. At most the game will probably have a small update, but that usually only takes 5 mins. You should be up and playing after entering user profile in no more than 20 minutes.

A game? Are you sure you aren't installing Switch system updates? Every system has that hurdle, unfortunately.

If it's truly taking that long to download a game, I hate to break it to you but it isn't the system's fault.

Um...no you didn't. I don't know what you bought, but a year of Nintendo Online is only $20.

ETA: I see now that he admitted this wasn't for the online account.
