Normally its free games or exclusive Fortnite skins that are used as a bonus for signing up to Twitch Prime but the offer at the moment is very different: a year-long subscription to Nintendo Switch Online.
That would usually cost you £17.99, and allows you to play Switch games online (only a few exceptions are playable for free), a gradually expanding range of NES games, make use of cloud saves, and gain access to the exclusive, and really rather good, Tetris 99.

If youre already a Nintendo Switch Online subscriber then you can also take advantage of the offer as long as you link your accounts, with the extra months being added to whatevers left of your current membership.
