Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers

This past week, the Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers offer was announced for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers. It allows members to purchase two tickets at a time for $99.99 and redeem them for eligible titles. It’s essentially a way to save a bit of cash on digital games, since you can nab releases such as Super Mario Maker 2 and Fire Emblem: Three Houses for a total of $100 instead of $120.

An official FAQ for Nintendo Switch Vouchers has been published on Nintendo’s website that outlines further information about the offer, confirming that more games will be added to the program among other things. You can read it in full below.
