Customers are saying

Customers commend Nintendo Switch Online's online play, which they find essential for playing games like Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart online. They also appreciate the value for the price, as the membership includes access to a library of classic NES and SNES games, making it a great deal compared to other online services. Additionally, customers praise the fast delivery of the membership code via email, allowing them to start playing online immediately. However, some customers express disappointment with the limited features offered beyond online play and cloud saves.

    My daughter plays the Switch on-line with her friends and family out of state. She loves being able to connect with them and have fun while doing it. I am very glad that I purchased this along with the Switch over the holidays.

    Came free with a purchase of a switch game. I got to play online with my friends with certain games like Animal Crossing, Pokemon, and Overwatch. Good product for anyone who likes to play online.

    This is probably the easiest thing you can do. After you buy the code. check your email for the code and type the code in your switch. You also earn points if you are a My Best Buy member.

    This is great if you want to play with friends or other people online. You also get access to play retro games which brings a lot of nostalgia. From time to time more games are added.

    If you want classic games on your Switch then this will be your cheapest option. Nintendo has Nes and Snes games you can play with this subscription as well as playing Nintendo Switch games online.

    Nintendo used to offer this service free so the 20 dollars out of nowhere have to be justified and at this moment Nintendo is working on that with free but old games. Time will tell, for now it is mandatory if you want to play games online; except for free to play games like fortnite, smite, warframe, etc.

    Great purchase to make sure you have a year of unlimited gaming for all the retro Nintendo systems. Order them digitally to save a trip and they email you quickly with a code.

    A must buy for online gaming. But as a bonus, it allows you to have access tons of classic Nintendo games, and almost all of them are free! Definitely recommend!

    Buying the 12-month membership is so worth it, you get access to all types of downloadable content and online gaming with your friends. It is worth more than what you pay.
