Frequently asked questions about Nintendo Switch Online

Online play for the games that require it, cloud save backup, and the classic NES, Super Nintendo and Game Boy libraries, which download as separate apps and stay playable for as long as the membership is active.
The 3-month and 12-month codes, which are the two formats stores actually sell. The 12-month one almost always works out better per month, but it is worth checking each time: the gap between stores eats that advantage more often than you would think.
Yes. When you redeem a code the months are added to whatever you have left rather than replacing it. That is the usual way of chaining two 12-month codes and forgetting about it for a good while.
On your Nintendo account: from the console's eShop, under the redeem code option, or on the web while signed in. The membership belongs to the account rather than the console, so the same code still works if you change machines.
No. The Expansion Pack is a separate, higher tier with more classic consoles and some DLC included. What is compared here are codes for the base plan, which is the one you need in order to play online.
