Nintendo eShop Spotlight – February 6, 2025 | Update

Are you still on the fence about creating a Nintendo Account? It’s a breeze to sign up, and it’s completely free! By setting up an account, you unlock access to the My Nintendo rewards program, where you can earn points for buying eligible digital games from the Nintendo eShop. Plus, you’ll rack up points when using Nintendo apps on your smartphone or even just by logging into Nintendo services, like the Nintendo eShop.

For those interested in buying downloadable games, the official Nintendo website provides all the necessary details. And if you’re eager to find more amazing downloadable content, our Nintendo eShop website is the place to explore.

Keep in mind, though, that you’ll want to check the Nintendo eShop or individual game pages for the latest pricing information.

To download demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo Switch, a Nintendo Account is a must. Naturally, terms and conditions will apply.

Here’s the fine print: to purchase or download games, demos, or free software from the Nintendo eShop via the official website, your Nintendo Account needs to be linked to your Nintendo Switch. Make sure your console is designated as the active download console by visiting the Nintendo eShop at least once on the device you plan to use. For a seamless automatic download experience, ensure your system is updated, connected to the internet, and has automatic downloads enabled. Plus, you’ll need enough storage space to complete any downloads. For further assistance, our Support section is ready to guide you. Remember, any purchases or demo downloads handled through the Nintendo website are processed via Nintendo eShop.
