Nintendo Switch Online still has a little ways to go before it fully launches. However, just like we saw with Amazon Germany not too long ago, Amazon US is selling codes. There’s a 12-month membership here and a 3-month membership here. 

Nintendo Switch Online launches in September. It will include access to online multiplayer, classic games, cloud saves, and exclusive discounts. Amazon’s codes should be distributed when the service goes live.

Up until this point, Splatoon 2 has been entirely free to play online. Yet in just a few months ago, that’s going to change in a notable way. When Nintendo Switch Online fully launches in September, players will need to pay if they want to battle others.

Producer Hisashi Nogami told Polygon that he doesn’t believe the move to paid online multiplayer will have a major impact. However, he does feel that there could be some changes to how people approach the game.

Interested in getting a very early head start on paying for Nintendo Switch Online? If so, perhaps you’d like to see what’s taking place over on Amazon UK and Amazon Germany.

The retailer is currently taking pre-orders for Nintendo Switch Online subscriptions. 3-month and 12-month options can be purchased as of now. A release date of September 30 is shown, though we’re certain that’s nothing more than a placeholder.

Nintendo Switch Online won’t be fully launching until September. There will be 1-month, 3-month, and 12-month plans priced at $3.99, $7.99, and $19.99 respectively.

Nintendo is starting to share new details about the full launch of the Nintendo Switch Online service. A big highlight, not known about previously, is the addition of cloud saves.

For those who subscribe to the service, saves will be stored online. If your system breaks or you purchase a new unit, that means you’ll be able to easily regain your saves. There will be some exceptions, but it seems as though almost every title will be included.

Nintendo Switch Online will have its proper launch in September.
