Tomorrow, Nintendo Switch Online launches. It's Nintendo's new subscription service, akin to Microsoft's Xbox Live Gold and Sony's PlayStation Plus. Like those programs, Nintendo's offering a free library of games—20 NES games to be exact, with more to come in the future—and gating online play and cloud saves behind it. (It's unclear if SNES or other consoles' games will join the service eventually.) The bright side is that Nintendo Switch Online is much cheaper than its competitors, costing only $19.99 a year. The downside is that, well, it has a lot of potential issues.
