Nintendo Switch Online Adds Pikmin Icons

Nintendo has added new Pikmin-themed icons to Nintendo Switch Online as part of the Pikmin Day festivities.

Earlier in the day, Nintendo also released the Pikmin Day Direct. The new icons include characters, backgrounds and frames, and they can be redeemed on both Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch. Characters cost 10 Platinum Points each on My Nintendo, while everything else costs 5 Platinum Points.

Once you redeem an icon, it stays on your account for good, even if your Nintendo Switch Online membership ends.
