so far...
it seems we always get the higher end of the fees. So you should not be happy for launch of sg store.
it means they going to make you pay higher subscription fees. hehe


you check out india, china, malaysia google , netflix, disney subscription prices.

Subscription Price Comparison (USD/Month)​





1. 🎬 Netflix (Standard Plan - HD Quality, 2 Screens)​



Netflix adjusts its prices dramatically based on local market competition and average income. India and the Southeast Asian countries are significantly cheaper than Singapore.

CountryLocal Currency Price (Approx.)USD Equivalent
Singapore (SGD)S$17.48 - S$18.98$12.90 - $14.00
Malaysia (MYR)~ RM39-45~ $8.50 - $9.60
Vietnam (VND)~ VND120,000~ $4.80 - $5.00
Thailand (THB)~ THB349~ $9.50 - $10.00
India (INR)~ ₹499~ $6.00
China(Netflix is not officially available)N/A

2. 📺 Disney+ (Standard or Premium Plan)​



Disney+ often has a different strategy, sometimes launching with more tiers (like the Hotstar model in India) or bundling with local providers.

I already have the US Switch Online subscription with cloud saves. If I switch to SG, will the cloud saves remain?

They should be separate right? Your NSO sub is tied to your US account. Most likely you will need to set up a SG account to buy from SG eShop. No link at all.

No issues with the games (store purchases) if i remember correct. That means if I use other countries' store to buy games and switch over to SG store, the game library remains.

I'm more concerned about the Switch Online subscription and the cloud saves. I've two Switches (docked and portable), that's why the subscription and save syncing is needed.

I only have 1 Nintendo account. Nintendo Switch Online subscription has cloud saves, so I play Switch OLED at home and the game saves auto sync to NSO cloud. I go outdoors and continue my game progress on the Switch Lite.

Will I keep my Nintendo Switch Online membership if I change countries?​

Yes. Your Nintendo Switch Online membership will remain active if you change your Nintendo Account settings to a country that supports Nintendo Switch Online.

Those peepur who buy from multiple eShops create multiple accounts. One for each country's eShop. Imagine KK Parks joy if accounts can be moved. Suddenly there will b lots of accounts for sale from Scambodia.

Tried to buy from US eShop using Paypal today.

Error Code: 2813-1471
Paypal account is not available within the country/region associated with your Nintendo Account.

My Billing Address is Oregon. It last worked early October 2025

They've blocked Singapore credit cards from other eshops. I tried my youtrip card with the Canadian and HK eshops and they've stopped working.

It was the same for Taiwan when their eshop opened recently.
