Yeah, I was completely sold on the Switch as the best couch co-op console till Splatoon 2 came out. Nintendo's biggest new franchise...and you have to use our crappy online service to play with friends (Or everyone has to invest $360 to play locally.) Throwing salt on the wound is having the co-op mode being only playable when they want you to. I actually haven't played it since the first time I went to play Salmon Run and it was blocked off. Splatoon 2 is a really fun game, but they really did a botch job on the end user experience.

Nintendo wouldn't be Nintendo without doing a whole bunch of stuff that just doesn't seem to make sense. Come to think of it, my 'relationship' with Nintendo is very similar to the one I have with Apple. I sometimes feel that they intentionally do stuff that is unfriendly to their user-base, but ultimately they can get away with it by doing a whole bunch of stuff right in a way that others don't. (And come to think of that, this description applies to most of the closest friends I've had throughout my life. Odd, that.)
