    Is this the first time NSO + Expansion Pack code available at retailers? I've always thought it's only available from Nintendo at ~£65(?) for Family.

    It is, CDKeys have it also now

    Soo I do need a game first if I want to youse this extension?

    All of the retro games can played without buying any base games, NES, SNES, Game Boy, GBA, N64, Mega Drive.

    The Mario kart, Animal Crossing and Splatoon content is DLC which require the respective base games

    Just bought single online yesterday bad timing, if I buy this when how do I get activation?
  4. Fire5torm's avatar
    If i purchase this, any idea if I could keep the Mario Kart booster pack if I don't renew the online membership next year? If you buy that separately I believe you always have access to any updates.
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    You only get to play the DLC, N64, Game Boy etc games as long as you're subscribed. If you buy the Mario Booster pass separately it's yours to keep

    Great find, allowed me to stack another year onto my sub. Now I'm set till 2025. Heat added.
    Matty1234's avatar
    How did you manage this? When we try to redeem it won't let us as we already have a subscription
  9. Purple_Warthog's avatar
    How long do you get to activate the code? Can it be kept for Christmas?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    I'm sure it will last till then. But tbh, now these codes are available outside of Nintendo for the first time I'd expect this to be a fairly standard price going forward from Shopto and CDKeys, so waiting and buying nearer the time would very likely work too
  10. addsimpson's avatar
    Thank you. I had bought a 12 month subscription without the expansion pack on Friday from CD Keys for £13.18.
    I bought this deal and Nintendo refunded me £14.48 in gold points! Very pleased as thought I was going to lose out but actually made a tiny bit extra in the process!
  11. simrocks's avatar
    What happens when i buy the family + expansion redeem it but i already have 6 months of normal family left?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    It looks like you get a rebate, in gold points, for the time remaining. When you upgrade through Nintendo you get a rebate based on how long you have left, but as you've paid for the code upfront you get compensated in gold points to spend on the eShop. How much and at what rate I'm waiting on a response from our resident boffin
  12. Refty's avatar
    extend an existing subscription?
    10bellies's avatar
    Mine was due to expire in November this year, and this stacked onto it, so the end date is now November 2024
  13. jaybizzle's avatar
    Does anyone know the best value way to get the expansion if you have just a 12 month Nintendo switch online?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    Short of joining someone's family membership, it would be by buying this (edited)
  14. welshuchiha611's avatar
    just dlc national or full game?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    The Mario Kart, Splatoon 2 and Animal Crossing content are all DLC that requires you to own the respective games, if that's what you meant.
    The retro console games all contain full versions of many different games
  15. iamd83's avatar
    Great deal... Although I could not get ShopTo to verify any debit card... Gave up after multiple attempts and bought at CD Keys for £26.99 so not too much difference. (edited)
    kaviraj's avatar
    send link to cdkeys one please.

    Sorry need a bit of help - If I have one switch but four profiles (only mine currently a Nintendo linked account others for kids) do I need the family account for the kids to play the extra games etc on their profile ?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    If you mean the included DLC and retro games, then yes, you need one pass per profile. It's different with purchased items (games can be played across all profiles, as can bought DLC such as the Mario kart/Animal Crossing expansions).

    8 passes can be shared, each with all of the benefits, with Family Membership. With this price for family membership it works out at £5.75ish per member per year (edited)
  17. turtles1's avatar
    Can I transfer a childs account onto my family's account?

    Does anyone know how I might do that, if so?
  18. horb1967's avatar
    Getting nintendo switch online + expansion pack family membership for £41.67 on switch itself is that with a discount or will it add 12 months to my current family sub ?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    That will be to convert your membership to 1 year expansion pack. The price is reduced as you get a discount for how long you have remaining. That's if I've read your question correctly. How long does your existing membership have to run?
  19. robertwillis353's avatar
    Can I download the extra Mario kart maps, or do I have to be online at the time I play them? 
    thanks.
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    You can play them offline too. The system will check periodically whether your account can play the content (I think every 7 days) to prevent people cancelling the membership and using the content. This stands for all of the extras with the membership, you'd get 7 days grace if you cancelled your subscription and didn't connect online
  20. grifftim's avatar
    I miss the days of free online through Nintendo - they were the last one standing on the pay per account front until they gave in with xbox and ps. Well if you can't beat em, take our money
    custardy's avatar
    I wouldnt be getting all misty eyed over Nintendo.
    I mean,they do like to ream their customers. Cloud saves behind a pay wall?
  21. DanielC1980's avatar
    Was tempted until I saw that it was only the DLC you get for splatoon and Mario kart. Doesn’t seem worth it for the expansion pack to me.
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    Did you expect Mario Kart 8, Splatoon 2, Animal Crossing + all of the other content for a potential £5.50 a year ?

    Nintendo switch = waste of alot of money for us. No1 touches it
  27. og87's avatar
    Wow great deal. If I didn’t just renew I would buy. Not sure how long I’ll be renewing either so don’t want to stack. Great find though. 
  28. CowboyKered's avatar
    Fantastic timing, my one runs out this week and was in two minds if I should continue.
    SampleX's avatar
    If you only need one slot just find a family to join and save money!
  29. LRGM's avatar
    Thanks
  30. stingersplash's avatar
    Might have to grab this. Give me a reason to use my switch again. Haven't really touched it in 18 months.

    Delayed buying one of these for my son, but at this price and with the summer holidays arriving, it's a no brainer at this price.

    Good work!
  34. GamerFirebird90's avatar
    Cheers OP, got this via CDkeys as I had built up some points there to bring it down to £26.50! Just extended my sub till 2025.
  35. psionmark's avatar
    Many thanks - mine had expired so used this to renew.
  36. RadioRedders's avatar
    Will say not the smoothest of shopping experiences. Just hung on the payment page twice after inputting my card details. Eventually used PayPal for it to go through. The order then looked like it was on back order...but wasn't. Code was accessible through the Digital Items half way down the menu in your account details. However, price today (22nd August) still £25.85, Price about the same on CD Keys but their website was down (again) ...you snooze, you lose CD Keys.
  37. TJ98's avatar
    Once purchased is there any chance of the code expiring before being used?
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    I'm pretty sure they don't, within reason. What's stopping you adding it now ?
  38. Montana80's avatar
    If I buy more than 1, are they stackable?
    TheGuyver's avatar
    Should be able to stack up to 3 years.
  39. HTS's avatar
    When data is saved to the cloud does this then remove it from the switch memory. Needing to free up some space
    pirate1's avatar
    Author
    It will give you some more space, but some data is kept on the console also. Bear in mind some games don't support cloud saving. The main purpose is to protect save files should the console get damaged or to switch to another console. Ultimately, it's worth investing in a larger SD card at some point too.

    I have the individual for another 6 months, if I buy the expansion pass and add it on what happens to my current sub? Does it convert?
