Nintendo Switch Online price finally revealed and fans are furious Pexels: @olly \/ NintendoFans all over the world are furious after Nintendo confirmed the official pricing for the Nintendo Switch Online game expansion. During their Animal Crossing Direct presentation, Nintendo slipped in a bit of news about the recently announced expansion to their Switch Online service. The existing service is $19.99 yearly, with access to online gameplay, games like Pac-Man 99, as well as part of their NES and SNES game library. Back in September, they announced the existence of an expansion pack for the online service. The pack will allow fans to access N64 and Sega Genesis games on the handheld console \u2014 but not without an extra price \u2014 as the expansion was announced to cost $50 on top of the existing subscription price. Fans are furious about the price hike Despite offering extra features like Animal Crossing\u2019s new paid DLC, fans have taken to social media furious about the added cost for features that they believe should be included in the base subscription. One fan believes we should \u201cbully\u201d the company into lowering the price: \u201cRemember those times gaming Twitter came together and collectively bullied Xbox into not canceling Xbox live gold, and PlayStation not Shutting down the ps3, ps vita stores, we should do that to Nintendo and these new Nintendo switch online prices!\u201d Remember those time gaming Twitter came together and collectively bullied Xbox into not cancelling Xbox live gold, and PlayStation not Shutting down the ps3, ps vita stores, we should do that to @NintendoAmerica and these new Nintendo switch online prices!!! \u2014 Tyler Newton \ud83d\udc00 (@Tnewt) October 15, 2021 While others, like Twitter user \u2018Til Plays,\u2019 believe Nintendo is not offering as many features as their competitors: \u201cWhen for around the same price your competitors are offering so much more value? This is a huge L for Nintendo!\u201d Another fan believes that since the price is similar to Xbox Game Pass, it can be compared to it: \u201cXbox Game Pass offers far more value than NSO does and even if you don\u2019t want to play those games via subscription, you still have the option to buy them separately.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/CerealBox64\/status\/1449061986889834502?s=20 The Nintendo Switch Online expansion pack releases on October 25, 2021, and you will be able to adjust your existing plan on the website or directly on your console.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
