How much does Nintendo Switch Online cost?

Nintendo presents the standard individual annual plan as equivalent to EUR 1.67 per month, because EUR 19.99 divided by twelve months produces that rounded amount. A full standard family plan falls to about EUR 0.37 per person per month when used by eight accounts. These are annual-membership calculations, not separate monthly instalments for the main prices covered here.

No. The standard family membership costs EUR 34.99 a year and supports up to eight accounts, so it becomes clearly attractive when at least three people use it. With two people, two individual standard memberships cost EUR 39.98 a year, so the saving is small. If only one person actually uses the plan, family membership wastes money despite the low total price.

The Expansion Pack raises the annual price from EUR 19.99 to EUR 39.99 for one individual account, and from EUR 34.99 to EUR 69.99 for a family group. It adds extra classic catalogues such as Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance and GameCube, plus selected DLC. It is not needed for basic online play; the standard plan already covers that.

Only the catalogues and content listed by Nintendo for the selected tier are included. Modern full games are not included: to play a title online, you must still own that game. Some DLC included in the Expansion Pack also requires the separately sold base game. That is why the subscription cost is not the whole cost of playing.

Nintendo explains that, when enabled, auto-renewal uses available Nintendo eShop funds and then the linked payment method, such as card or PayPal. It should be turned off before the renewal date; Nintendo's pages tell users to act at least 48 hours before expiry. After cancellation, the membership remains valid for the period already paid but does not automatically create credit for unused time.
