So, I know some features can be accessed right now like the eshop, friend list, news, etc... But I don't know if its my system, or what. I can't play online in certain games,

And I looked on the Switches payed online info, but still, extremely confused at the moment how the "free trial" is setup at the moment.

I've played online in Fast RMX, Bomberman and Splatoon 2 Global Testfire. Works like you'd expect.

So far I have only had this issue with Bomberman R, but I don't know if that's becuase no one plays the game, or if it's becuase of a hardware issue.

afaik, once you make your first account it will tell you that the free trail has started. You will also need to be on 2.0+, as 1.0 doesn't have online added

I do remember having something like that in the news or eshop section (I can't remember.) And it took me to this page
http://www.nintendo.com/switch/online-service/ or something similar like this

I updated to 2.0.1 Firmware so at the moment I am on the latest, all online services like connecting to online menus, eshop, using news, etc... Are fine. But i'm unsure about online games with strangers working or not.

Has anyone connected in game but have no results for for playing online, like in a lobby with people? Once again I have only tried Bomberman so.

Got bombermana play it online easily.
IF you can get to the eshop with your account, you should be able to get online and play bomberman with that same account.

    $60 for a game that's a decade old might be unheard of on PC but actually is not uncommon on consoles

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    especially Nintendo because they only ever lower the price of games when they do a greatest hits/platinum hits/players choice re-release
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and the HD collections released for 7th gen consoles too
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but they don't seem to have done any of those for the switch yet and maybe never will
  • ColdBlitz @ ColdBlitz:
    I think we all forgot breath of the wild released for the wii u tbh

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, tbh the HD collections are more justified since they include more than just 1 game per copy
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ I read that non-binary people identify as a blend of male and female. The point is i think i'm a blend of those and thus non binary
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Non-binary people are those who don't identify themselves exclusively as male or female.
  • cearp @ cearp:
    I don't identify as anything, unless I need to get on a plane then I show ID

    @SylverReZ, I meant that I read that they can also identify as what i mentioned

    I identify as Long Rod Johnson, cause a cat called me that once.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, and thus that would make me non binary since i feel like a blend of both male and female

    @Xdqwerty only time will tell, what/whom you are. At 14, its a bit early to "Define" yourself. :)
