Here's a somewhat surprising detail: with one solo subscription to Nintendo Switch Online, you can download and play both the US and Japanese version of the NES/Famicom emulators. You need a Japanese account to download the Japanese one, but that account doesn't need to have a subscription. Once it's downloaded you have to start it with the account that actually has a subscription regardless of whether the regions match.

There's not too much point to doing this yet since they both have the same library through the end of 2018. Notably, the Famicom Disk System version of Zelda 1 has better sound than the NES version, although the cryptic hints are even less useful if you can't read the language. I expect they'll end up with different libraries next year thanks to all the very popular JRPGs that never got translated.

Quote from: bluaki on September 19, 2018, 04:27:16 AMHere's another problem with the NES games: restore points are entirely manual. For every single incarnation of Virtual Console on Wii, Wii U, and 3DS, you can go back to the Home menu, choose a different game, then later come back to the game you were playing at exactly the moment you left off at. On Switch, there's absolutely no warning when going back to the list of games and your unsaved progress is just gone unless you navigate through and use the restore point menu before you exit.

sounds like how the classic consoles work

Nintendo finally confirmed this detail: if your Nintendo Switch Online subscription expires, you can wait up to 6 months to subscribe again before your cloud save data backups may be deleted

So it's at least better than the "oh no they'll delete it immediately" reaction a lot of people online had for the past few weeks before they clarified this
