Twitch Prime users are being gifted a free year of Nintendo Switch Online
<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/twitch-prime-users-are-being-gifted-a-free-year-of-nintendo-switch-online.jpg" width="200" height="200" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>Twitch is treating Twitch Prime subscribers by giving them a 12-month Nintendo Switch Online subscription for free. </p>
<p>For context, Twitch Prime is part of Amazon Prime, which costs $12.99 per month. Given an annual Nintendo Switch Online package only costs $19.99 a year, it’s probably not a great deal unless you’re already an Amazon Prime customer, but for those already signed up it’ll be a welcome extra. </p>
<p>While its notable news for bargain-hungry Switch owners, it’s also interesting to see Nintendo and Twitch join forces for the promotion, and shows the Japanese console maker is searching for ways to maintain and <a href="https://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/326299/Nintendo_Switch_Online_finally_has_a_concrete_launch_date.php">stoke interest in its fledgling online service</a>, which grants access to online multiplayer, deals, discounts, and other perks. </p>
<p>Those interested in the offer will need claim three months of Nintendo Switch Online straight away, before coming back in 60 days to nab the remaining nine months — with Twitch no doubt putting that caveat in place to stop people signing up and then bailing once they’ve got the goods. </p>
<p>Everything you need to know about the deal is <a href="https://twitch.amazon.com/prime/loot/nintendo?ascsubtag=articles-2019-03-28-twitch-prime-currently-includes-a-12-month-subscription-to-nintendo-s">right here on the Twitch Prime offer page</a>, which also features an extensive FAQ, so go and have a gander.</p>
