Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack

500+ games across NES, SNES, N64, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, GBA, Sega Genesis, and GameCube — the most retro platform variety of any subscription. GameCube titles, including Wind Waker, F-Zero GX, Soulcalibur II, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, and Pokémon XD, were added starting with Switch 2 launch and require a Switch 2 to access. No modern Switch titles are in the subscription library.

At $49.99 per year, it is the cheapest major console subscription annually. The included DLC packs — Mario Kart Booster Course Pass at $25 retail and Animal Crossing New Horizons DLC at $25 — together cover most of the annual cost.

No modern Nintendo Switch games are included at any point. Switch titles are sold separately. The catalog is retro games and DLC packs for specific existing games only.

Nintendo Switch only — handheld, docked, and tabletop modes. No PC, no mobile gaming beyond the limited Nintendo Switch Online app for voice chat. Nintendo Switch 2 is backward compatible.

Online multiplayer for Switch games, a mobile app for some game features, exclusive subscriber-only offers, and Nintendo 64 with original controller support.
