There’s a lot to take in about the Nintendo Switch – it’s a new console that will also arrive with an entirely new online service. This is a first for the company who for years offered a lackluster online experience with its Wii, Wii U, 3DS and more. When the Switch launches, the service will be offered as a free trial with a paid service launching later in the year. Like other paid online services, like Xbox Live or PlayStation Plus, there is the added benefit of a free monthly game download. Unfortunately, it appears that the free title will work a bit differently than its competitors offerings.
According to Nintendo’s subscription service, the subscriber will be able to download and play a retro title “for free for a month “.
