Good Value
||Posted .Owned for 4 months when reviewed.If you own a nintendo swith or lite, this is a must. The free games alone are worth the purchase. Nintendo Online isn't the greatest to be honest, but it's okay, could be better.

Nintendo Online
||Posted .Owned for 5 months when reviewed.Bought it so every individual in my house can go on the online shop / play online games vs others. I know all the consoles have online subscriptions. The only gripe I have with this family plan is that the single online plan should allow others on the same console to access the online games/library.

Online family fun on Nintendo
||Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.I’ve had a single user Nintendo online membership. I upgraded to the family membership so my kids could play Minecraft with each other. They use their switch lites and connect with each other. In order to do this they both have to have separate Nintendo account, online memberships and they both have to own the game. An individual Nintendo online membership is $20, so this family Nintendo membership is worth it at $35 and you can have up to 8 Nintendo accounts connected to it.

Worked as expected
||Posted .Owned for 3 months when reviewed.High quality subscription card. In fact it's such high quality that they only provide you with the redemption code via email so they can preserve the cards untouched, mint quality. I do wonder if there is a shrine at BB Headquarters dedicated high quality redeemed digital codes....or maybe it's all a sham and there's nothing physical about it and it's origin is a cubicle farm of poor souls who dedicated their lives to mining the world wide web for codes such as this so we all can enjoy our digital lifestyle. Either way, it worked great and I was able to redeem my subscription exactly as expect.

It works!
||Posted .Owned for 1 year when reviewed.I'd recommend buying this from Best Buy, rather than the eShop. You get MyBest Buy points alongside your purchase. Only downside is the wait for it to arrive to your email. It is quick, but not instant. Understandable.

Answered by ShadowFalls
Q: QuestionI want to buy this for a Christmas present, can I buy it with my email and account? And what can I give as the gift?
Asked by Jilliebean.
- A:Answer When I bought it this way, it comes as a long code with instructions to redeem in an email separate from the order (doesn't show the price). So I guess you could forward the email, or you can write down the code in a physical card and give that. However, I got this for myself, so there may be "gift options" during checkout to have the email sent to an email address other than the one the order was done on, that might be better.
Answered by Layne
