OW is crossplatform, if its active on pc and console its active on switch.

NSO costs 20$ a year and comes with bassicaly all of the good NES and SNES games, plus you cna play free games like Tetris99

If you do, as of October 2021 does it have an active playerbase? I work from home and get a lot of free time just sitting at my desk waiting for work to come in and love Overwatch on PC... I'm thinking of buying a Switch for it to play portable (and Pokemon possibly, but only if OW is decent.)

 

Also, how much is the online monthly cost for the Switch?

Ohhh really? I never knew OW was crossplatform. 

 

Are you sure? I remember when OW first came out there being some differences with characters on PC compared to console. An example that the Torbjorn turret doing different damages for PC players etc.

You can turn off pc crossplay, so you only play with console playres
