Nintendo Switch Online Subscription Service

The Nintendo Switch will feature an Online Service new to Nintendo consoles. This service will be free at launch, then it will become a paid service starting Fall 2017. 

 

 The Nintendo Switch Online Service will allow players to play compatible co-op and competitive games online with a Nintendo Account, and similar to other online services, offer a free monthly game download to subscribers. Nintendo specifically names NES and Super NES games with newly-added online play as their free download titles. However, these free games serve as demos, and only last for the month before you are offered to buy the game or you will be unable to play it further. Subscribers will also get special offers and discounts on digital games and content.   

The Nintendo Switch Online Service will use a dedicated smart device app to connect to the Nintendo Switch Console. It will let players Invite friends to play online, set play appointments, and chat with friends, while enjoying online matches in compatible games, all from a smart device. The free, limited version of this app will be available Summer 2017.  The paid online service will only be available in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico at launch.

The online service is only for Nintendo Switch and will not affect Wii U or 3DS online features. Nintendo detailed that most games will require a subscription to the service to play online.
Note that those who do not wish to use the online service can still use the eShop, manage friends, share screenshots via social media, and use the Parental Controls.

Nintendo Switch Online Service Price

Nintendo has yet to reveal how much a subscription to its online service costs.
