    If you're someone like me, and have already purchased Nintendo Switch Online, you can use this to extend your existing subscription. This is amazing.

      Should also be noted that this isn't true if you have a family plan:

      Only Nintendo Switch Online users with individual Memberships are eligible for this offer. These users can add the 3-month and 9-month memberships on to their existing membership period. Unfortunately, Nintendo Switch Online Family Memberships are not eligible to participate in the campaign.

    Just a heads up for others, it looks like after 60 days you have to still prove you are an Amazon prime member and you get the remaining nine months after that period. I will have to set a reminder on my phone.

    I'm similarly ignorant about Nintendo Switch Online. I own a Switch but I don't know what the online service offers or why I should be interested in using it.

      Yes, Twitch Prime is part of Amazon Prime. Switch Online lets you play games online, gives you access to cloud save backups, and also gives you a small library of NES games to play on Switch.
