Not every perk of Switch Online can appeal to every subscriber after all. Although the latest Animal Crossing has sold 33 million copies to date, so it’s likely that many (if not most) Nintendo Switch Online subscribers will have purchased it already, so this complaint feels a tad nitpicky. While it’s technically $25 in value, if you don’t own the base game it’s essentially worthless. Not to mention, the offer of free Animal Crossing: New Horizons DLC has come under fire. Some of the issues reported have been the fault of dodgy internet connections causing lag, but the evidence of graphical glitches, audio delays, and bizarre button mapping (which cannot currently be corrected) is all on Nintendo. The ability to play classic Nintendo 64 games like Mario Kart 64, Star Fox 64, and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time on the Switch may be worth an extra $30 to some, but even those easily-pleased players have been let down by Nintendo.Įarlier this week when the Nintendo 64 games went live on the service users started to notice serious problems. Then Nintendo went and spoilt it all by confirming this was actually an expansion pack and would come with an additional annual fee of $35, bringing the total cost of Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack to $50 per year - this makes it arguable one of the worst deals in gaming. Yes it's cheaper than Xbox Game Pass and it's $10 monthly fee, but Microsoft offers a vast raft of games from multiple generations, including new releases. It was announced that a selection of beloved Nintendo 64 and Sega Genesis games would be added to the service, as well free access to the upcoming Animal Crossing: New Horizons DLC, was coming to Switch Online. In October this year, Nintendo looked to have finally got the memo on the need to improve the service.
