- 12 mesi pass famiglia – $79.99Dollaro statunitense / € 69,99 / £ 59,99
Those upgrading from a current standard Nintendo Switch Online subscription get a “pro rated discount depending on the number of days remaining in your current membership”.
When you break down the pricing for a new customer, by simply discounting the standard NSO subscription from the Expansion Pack bundle, gli 12 month price of the expansion content comes out at $30Dollaro statunitense / €20 / £17 for a single user, e $45Dollaro statunitense / €35 / £28.50 for the family pass (fino 8 users).
Per riferimento, the Animal Crossing Happy Home Paradise DLC costs $24.99USD standalone, so for keen players of the game that arguably makes the Expansion Pack rather appealing when you add the N64 and Mega Drive / Giochi di genesi into the mix. Tuttavia, similar to services like PlayStation Plus, it seems you will lose access to the DLC if you end your subscription.
It’s also fair to say that for those only interesting in the retro game library who don’t play Animal Crossing: New Horizons or don’t want that DLC expansion, it may be a tougher sell at those prices. Perhaps Nintendo will bolster the offering over time with added incentives, but that remains to be seen.
