Nintendo has released a video explaining what the
Nintendo Switch Online service will feature, and some other details that we already knew about.
Special Offers was probably the most anticipated bit of information Nintendo fans wanted revealed and they will be disappointed to find out that Nintendo said they were not going to reveal that information just yet.
But the real reason to get excited over this news is that Nintendo will be bringing back the classic NES controllers, which will be compatible with the Nintendo Entertainment System feature on the Nintendo Switch Online service.
These NES controllers are exactly the same size and shape, with the only exception that these are wireless and can be charged by attaching them to the Nintendo Switch the same way the Joy-Con controllers do. There is a downside, though, as these will only be available to be purchased by Nintendo Switch Online service members—so a membership is mandatory.
The NES controller bundle includes the right and left controllers and will cost $59.99. Shipments for these controllers will begin in December although no specific date was revealed.
