Not too long ago, Nintendo announced the Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers program. If you’re a Nintendo Switch Online subscriber, you can obtain two vouchers for $99.99 that can be used on select titles. Rather than buying a pair of games digitally for a combined total of $120, you can save $20 if you spend your money right.

Pokemon fans will be happy to hear that the vouchers can now be redeemed for Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield. Just remember that they can only be purchased through July 31. Vouchers will then need to be redeemed within 12 months from the purchase date.

A couple of months ago, Nintendo and Twitch teamed up for a new partnership. Those with Twitch Prime subscriptions were eligible for up to 12 months of free Nintendo Switch Online access. However, it was split into two batches – one for three months, and another for nine months.

That nine-month Nintendo Switch Online code can now be requested and redeemed, assuming you took advantage of the offer on the first day. In other words, you should be able to redeem the second part after two months have passed. If you’re a Twitch Prime (or Amazon Prime) member, simply visit this page and click on the “Claim Now” text.

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.
