<p>Nintendo Switch Online subscribers in Japan will have to pay a slightly higher fee to renew their subscriptions starting from October, as the service’s standard price is due to rise.</p>
<p><a class="external" href="https://japanesenintendo.com/2019/09/10/nintendo-switch-online-prices-increasing-in-japan/">Japanese Nintendo</a> reports that Nintendo has been sending emails to Switch Online subscribers in Japan to notify them of the change; prices will be increasing from 1st October thanks to an increase in the country’s consumption tax. At present, Japan’s consumption tax stands at 8%, but this will be bumped up to 10% next month.</p>
<p>Thankfully, with the Switch Online service’s pricing being relatively low in the first place, we doubt the change will have <em>too</em> much of an effect on many players. A 12-month subscription currently costs ¥2,400 (approx. £18.10) and this will rise to ¥2,448 (approx. £18.46). By our calculations, a Family subscription will therefore rise from its usual ¥4,500 price to roughly ¥4,584 (approx. £33.90 to £34.53).</p>
<p>Naturally, Switch Online subscribers based in any other country won’t be affected and will be able to renew or pick up a new subscription at the <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2018/09/guide_nintendo_switch_online_faq_-_everything_you_need_to_know_-_pricing_cloud_saves_nes_games">original pricing</a>.</p>
<p><em>Hopefully <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/09/guide_the_20_snes_games_on_nintendo_switch_online_ranked_by_us">all those SNES games</a> will be worth the extra cash!</em></p>
