However, the company has announced it’s set to roll out its upcoming subscription service in September. The online service will is practically Nintendo‘s version of PlayStation Network or Xbox Live, offering online multiplayer at a monthly/yearly price, a currently free (for a limited time) feature.

There are other benefits that will come with the new subscription, but Nintendo has stated it will reveal more on those features at a later date.
