Nintendo is also said to be working on bringing Gamecube versions of Super Mario Sunshine, Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion and Super Smash Bros. Melee to the Switch Virtual Console.


However, away from the new GameCube titles, it appears that any VC would likely clash with the new Nintendo Switch Online service. Nintendo added new details to their official Switch Online


site, confirming price details that are lower than both PS4’s PlayStation Plus and Xbox One’s Games with Gold. Nintendo Switch Online fully launches in 2018, although there will be a period


of free membership offered. Online play will be free for Nintendo Account holders until the paid online service launches next year and will not affect existing consoles, such as the Nintendo


3DS and Wii U. The price point of membership has also been revealed and will include three different options: * 1 month costing - $4 * 3 months costing - $8 * 12 months costing - $20 While


this is substantially lower than other rival console services, this is likely due to to a couple of different factors, the biggest being games. “Subscribers will get to download a


compilation of classic titles with added online play, such as Super Mario Bros. 3, Balloon Fight and Dr. Mario,” a statement from Nintendo explains. Nintendo has confirmed that the limit on


classic games first confirmed back in January is not being implemented. However, in a new update released earlier this week, Nintendo have confirmed that they have not pulled the plug on the


Virtual Console for Switch. “Classic Games Selection (tentative name) is different from the [Virtual Console],” a spokesperson told Famitsu. Nintendo also confirmed during the interview


that a release date is “still undecided,” meaning a rethink may be underway due to the new service.
