Nintendo has FINALLY launched their online service for the Nintendo Switch, focusing on Nintendo Entertainment System games at the initial launch. The system just went live here in the Midwest in the USA and we take you through what we needed to do to sign up for the service and download the playable games to our system.

At initial launch the following NES Games are playable on the Switch:
Balloon Fight
Baseball
Donkey Kong
Double Dragon
Dr. Mario
Excitebike
Ghosts'n Goblins
Gradius
Ice Climber
Ice Hockey
The Legend of Zelda
Mario Bros.
Pro Wrestling
River City Ransom
Soccer
Super Mario. Bros.
Super Mario Bros. 3
Tecmo Bowl
Tennis
Yoshi

These are all classics, many of which have been available for some time on the NES Classic Edition. I am most curious about the speed of the download, the storage used by the games and how quickly they launch. We'll all find out together in this video, recorded live on 9/18/2018, the evening the service went live.
