gaming How is the Switch's online behind?

I haven't bought a Nintendo console since the Wii, so I'm a bit behind. How exactly is the Switch online service behind?

I don't mean to be crass, but I would say its behind looks fantastic, thank you very much.

Google would be your friend, but the general criticisms are this:

 

• No virtual console, instead you are basically subscribing to get a tiny selection on NES games which you lose access to when your subscription ends.
• No dedicated servers, yet you’re expected to pay for it.
• Poor connectivity, where it’s almost unanimously agreed that the connection is poor and most of the time unpredictable, more so that their competitors.
• No messaging system on the system.
• Voice chat is handled by a smartphone app for most games.
• No achievement system.
• Cloud saves are limited to only certain games, which is very bad because a lot of the excluded games are big first party titles.
• The quality of service hasn’t really improved since the Wii days, but we’re expected to pay for it now, to name a few.
