Nintendo Switch continues to drop information about all the services it will offer, as well as its catalog. Nintendo's console is being harshly criticized for announcing that its online service will go from being free to being paid, however, it is a technique already used by other companies, the clear examples are PlayStation Plus and Xbox Live Gold , services that cost around fifty euros a year. Nevertheless, What will be the price of the Nintendo Switch online service? The first leaks begin to arrive from the Japanese country, and allow us to make calculations.
Nikkei it seems an inexhaustible source of leaks in all areas, although certainly, many times they end up failing, perks of the trade. This time we are going to give a vote of confidence to your information, and it is that according to what has reached your ears on behalf of the president of Nintendo, Tatsumi Kimishima, Nintendo's online service will cost between 2.000 and 3.000 yen, which translates to roughly $ 17 to $ 25. It remains to be clear, the price in euros, because in international monetary transactions, we do not know how, but we Europeans always end up losing.
In short, we presume that the service will cost a maximum of $ 25 in the United States of America, so everything points to the service will cost its corresponding 25 euros in Europe.
Regarding the quality of the service, they have only announced that they will offer a classic Nintendo Entertainment System game on a monthly basis, but nothing more. They have not indicated if they will give away more content, if they will stay in the NES games or if they will have a store with their corresponding digital offers. It seems a way to profit from a more than probable hack, and is that Nintendo lately is not knowing (or wanting) to implement sufficient security measures.
