Nintendo Switch Online is an official subscription service for the Nintendo Switch. Working pretty much like XBOX Live or PlayStation Network, it provides the user with access to online gameplay (except for free-to-play games, which aren't required), cloud saving, and a compilation of retro games divided into multiple apps. A monthly or annual fee is required, with the prices varying by type of plan, and Nintendo Account type (individual or child). Not every country has access to the service, such as Taiwan.

The retro game apps allow the player to emulate classic systems, using a selection of titles added by Nintendo on an irregular basis. Some systems are locked onto the Expansion Pack tier, which allows the player to play more additional systems.
