Missions and rewards have officially been added to Nintendo Switch Online. Read on below to learn more:
Looking to show off your style? We’d like to highlight one of the fashionable perks of having a Nintendo Switch Online membership*: the icon maker! If you haven’t tried it yet, here’s how it works.
Step 1: Head over to Nintendo Switch Online on the HOME Menu (it’s the red icon on the far left of the menu) on your system. Once you’re there, select the Missions & Rewards tab to see which elements and missions are available.
Step 2: Redeem your My Nintendo™ Platinum Points** to get icon elements (a.k.a. characters, backgrounds, and frames).
Step 3: Put those elements together to make your own profile icon. All of your icons and icon elements can be accessed by going to the Icon Collection at the top right of the page.
Step 4: Bask in your personalized masterpiece.
Note that completing missions will get you more Platinum Points which can then be redeemed for more icon elements. If you browse the selection of elements right now, you may see some popular ones that debuted earlier this year. This specific collection elements will rotate until Jan. 7 at 4:59 p.m. PT so keep checking each day to see what’s available.

Fun rewards
After you’ve completed one of these missions, just head back to the Nintendo Switch Online app to collect your Platinum Points, which you can redeem for digital wallpapers, physical items from the My Nintendo Store, and new member-exclusive icon elements you can collect and put together to create a new user icon.
Introducing icon elements!
One of the new features in the latest update for the Nintendo Switch Online app is the ability to redeem Platinum Points for elements for your user icon. You can get frames, characters, or background elements to create your own user icon that can be seen by other Nintendo Switch players when you’re online. Each month will have a different theme and icon elements will be refreshed each week, so be sure to check the Nintendo Switch Online app on your Nintendo Switch system so you don’t miss any!
