Online family fun on Nintendo
|Posted .Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.Features
Quality5 out of 5Value5 out of 5Ease of Use5 out of 5I’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.

It seemed like a great idea at the time.

Quality4 out of 5Value3 out of 5Ease of Use4 out of 5It seemed like a great idea at the time. We were told that any downloaded copies of games would be able to be played by all three of the switch owners in the home. Unfortunately it doesn’t work that way they can only be played on the account holders switch or whoever has the parents account on their handheld device. Needless to say our kids were disappointed as it didn’t work the way the sales person said it would. The plus side is that has dozens of games available.
