The benefits of being an Amazon Prime member are many. You get access to over two million songs without any adverts, exclusive deals, and Prime Originals, movies, and TV shows. You also get fast and free delivery.

Amazon Prime members also get the benefits of the Twitch Prime package, but what you actually receive keeps changing. For example, Amazon removed ad-free streams towards the end of last year, out of the blue. It hasn't been completely clear what will come next, but now we know.

The latest change will be music to the ears of gamers everywhere. Amazon has partnered up with Nintendo, and up until Sept. 24, Amazon Prime members can get 12 months of Nintendo Switch Online for free via the Twitch Prime package.

Be warned, though: subscribers won't get the full year free up front. Interested parties will need to head to Twitch's website to claim the first 30 days free, then come back after 60 days to claim another nine months of access.

If you're not currently an Amazon Prime Member, you can sign up to a free Amazon Prime 30-day trial and still be eligible for at least a three month Nintendo Switch Online membership. You will have to move on to a paid Amazon Prime Membership for an extra nine months worth of Nintendo Switch Online, though.

It's worth reading up on all the terms and conditions, but this deal should appeal to any gamer looking to get online.
