Amazon charges you tax.

But buying from within the console charges NO tax, because every Nintendo Switch sold is coincidentally being used in an Oregon zip code. Zero exceptions. It's a geological wonder.

Not to mention various ways to get cheaper eShop credit that can be used...

PSA - if let membership lapse over 6 months Nintendo will wipe away all your cloud data. I took a break from gaming then return to find out this. All my smash bro unlocks … gone. BOTW with fully collected yahaha's… gone.

My own fault for not checking the terms but I just assumed once I pay again they'd recover my saves but no it's actually wiped from their servers. Just so people are aware.

This is the biggest factor preventing me from picking up a switch again.

Quote from balajeek :
what is the standard price for this membership ?
from amazon it shows list price for individual is just $2 more

is this really a great deal ? or am I missing something.
Nah, nothing missed. Just the notion that it's 10% off w/out taxes. Great for someone new to the Switch, but very lukewarm for the 99% of life unless you're hitting it with Target's 5% or whatnots

Unfortunately not, the dlc is tied to the expansion subscription. You have to buy it separately per game if you want permanent access..
Can't you log into the other persons switch and set it as primary and download it so that person can play?

Heads up - Nintendo is now offering 20% of the membership cost back in gold coins for future use for your Nintendo purchases. Offer valid 11/21/2023 through 12/6/2023 (Pacific time). According to the fine print, it looks like if you activate the offer and renew using a code like the ones called out in this deal thread, you should get the coins within 14 days:

Quote :
* Nintendo Account required. Offer valid once per Nintendo Account from 11/21/23 at 9:00 am PT until 12/6/23 at 11:59 pm PT ("Promotion Period") with the purchase or paid renewal of a Nintendo Switch Online 12-month Individual Membership or Family Membership or a Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack 12-month Individual Membership or Family Membership on Nintendo eShop or My Nintendo Store, or with redemption of a code purchased at retail for any such membership. User must be at least 13 years of age to qualify and must activate the offer by clicking ""Get Offer"" on this page and sign in to their Nintendo Account during the Promotion Period. Gold Points will be issued within 14 days of purchase from Nintendo eShop or My Nintendo Store, or within 14 days of code redemption, are earned based on the price of the membership on Nintendo eShop, and will vary by country and currency. For codes purchased at retail, Gold Points will be earned based on the Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price of membership purchased. A Nintendo Account is required to receive and redeem My Nintendo Points. Terms apply. https://accounts.nintendo.com/term_point

Moral of the story, backup your save data.

Typically you don't need to buy the NSO membership through Nintendo to get the 20% back, the code redemption should work as well. This is how their promos like this have worked in the past and the terms and conditions mention this exact scenario. So, you could get 15% total off the membership directly at target (10% + 5% with a red card) and achieve the same thing without the additional step of buying eshop credit and then buying the membership, no?

Also folks with Amazon credit cards get similar savings as the red card with the additional 5% back.

Is this stackable on top of existing accounts?
Yes, as mentioned, you can stack up to 3 years with some exceptions. For example, if you are currently on an individual membership with 6 months left and you add a family membership then they do not stack, but run concurrently. There are other exceptions but Nintendo has a support page for it: https://en-americas-support.ninte...rship-plan
