When the Nintendo Switch was first announced to have paid online services, many were afraid that the cost would be too high. Some were thinking of how Sony has raised the price of PS+ a large amount, and how Xbox Live is expensive as well.

We have no need to fear it seems as Serkan Toto has mentioned that Tatsumi Kimishima revealed to Nikkei that online services will cost 2-300 Yen ( USD 17.50-26.50) on a yearly basis. This is much better than many were fearing and should come as a relief.

 

He also repeats that Switch’s virtual console games will have online features such as multiplayer.

Are you feeling better about this? I sure am!
