  • A: Response to the last question on here. What that 1st reply meant was that the code itself does not expire, meaning you can redeem it now, or as long as Nintendo provides the service (if you keep the code for 10 years and the service is no longer active, you're out of luck). The code itself is for 12 months of service, so once you redeem it, you have 12 months of online service. It applies to the Switch and Switch Lite, continue as usual for the 3dxl

  • A: This isn’t an answer but a question to tack onto this question. The reply to the question makes it sound like once you buy the membership it is good forever. Yet, it is called a 12-month Individual Membership. A little confusing there, Also, does this apply only to my Switch Lite or are any of my other Nintendo platforms included? I still play my 3DS XL regularly. It’s connected to our home network and I have a number of digital things and games loaded into my 3DS XL. Do I continue as usual with the 3DS XL or is there something I should do to connect the two devices if there is a reason?? Thank you.

Q: What does the 12 month membership allow me to do?

submitted by marks - 4 years ago
  • A: Some games like splatoon require this card or you can not play the game at all. It seems to be like the live cards for xbox and playstation. You won’t get to play with other people without it and if the game is based on playing with others, you can’t play any of the game without it.

    submitted byShopaholic - 3 years ago
  • A: Hi, marks! Regarding your question about the Nintendo Switch Online 12-Month Individual Membership - Nintendo Switch (Digital): Nintendo Switch Online is required for online play, communications, and Cloud saves mostly.

Code works perfectly. It took a minute to figure out where to put it. I kept going to eShop, clicking the 12 month membership, then putting the code in. That’s not it folks. I actually had to go to the left side panel (in red) and click enter code.

it's a individual membership, Not Family... Thought it was a great deal for the holidays, JK... I ended up paying 16 on top of the 20 to add the family membership from Nintendo. better to just get from Nintendo direct.

Beware! This isn't the item that is on sale for Black Friday. With this you are paying full price for an individual membership, not a discounted price for the 12 month family membership

I like How this costs 20 bucks for a 12 month membership. Plus on the side of getting to play online for a year, You can play games from the Original Nintendo console, Nintendo entertainment system alongside the Super Nintendo entertainment system.

Our code didn't work the first time we tried. We have games that are a different region code & had to go into our online account & change them back to the US. Log into ur account & change region to the correct one & the time zone. FYI for those who have issues. Otherwise, code worked right away & arrived in like 5 mins!
