Better deal getting this through Best Buy, especially if you have a store cord and get points on the purchase or redeem points to buy it. I use it to play Mario Kart, Tetris, and a few other games online.

Playing classic games like Mario Strikers on the emulator on the go is truly amazing. My experience playing Mario Kart World online has been great! Connections are stable and the game is a blast. Absolutely worth it to me for the emulation on the go alone.

Got this NSO with the expansion to get both upgrades for the Zelda switch games. And was able to use my best buy rewards certificate to get 10$ off so I save money by buying it this way for what I needed!

This is the best value for nostalgic gaming. You will be able to play NES, SNES, GBA, GBC, exclusively for this expansion pack, you can play N64 games. If you got the Nintendo Switch 2, you can play Nintendo GameCube games. The library gets updated monthly so you will have a ton of games every month for 12 months with this subscription. It's a must have for an individual with a single Nintendo Switch 1 or 2 consoles.

Is a good value for what you get with it. Make the most of what the service offers. But it needs more of an overhaul to match what Xbox offers. For the price it's good.

I thought one year was too much, but looking at the classics games you get to play made it totally worth it. I am lost playing so much Metroid and Zelda.

My old subscription expired and my cousin had been asking me to play PGA 2k21 online but my subscription had ran out. I searched best buy to see if they had subscription cards and not only did they you could buy from the site and they send you an email with instructions to add the expansion pack saving me a trip to the store. On top of that I used ZIP so instead of 49.99 it's 11 dollars every 2 weeks for a month. Really convenient, thanks again Best Buy!!!

$20 for online and $30 for all retro expansions is definitely work the price. With the expansions you get access to games available on NES, SNES, N64, and Genesis. Some games you can choose to by stand-alone but if you own the expansion pass you get access to all the games. Think of it as the same as Xbox gamepass. Definitely worth the price though if you love the nostalgia of playing retro classics.

It’s very nice to be able to dive into so many of the games that were apart of my life as a youth. Games all the way back to the NES, SNES Sega Genesis, N64 and so on. I loved FZero X and so many others. Roughly 50 bucks for unlimited access for a year, good deal. Plus you get cloud saves. Very happy with this.

This online sub for Nintendo is such a good value. You can play online and have access to a classic catalog of games for only $50 a year. Digital code is also very easy to purchase from Best Buy.

To buy all the games available on the online service and the dlc would cost hundreds. You absolutely get your money’s worth with this purchase.
