If you haven’t set up a Nintendo Account yet, now’s the perfect time to jump on board—it’s free! By creating an account, you can dive into the My Nintendo rewards program, where you earn points just by buying digital games on the Nintendo eShop, using various Nintendo apps on your smart device, or even just by signing in to different Nintendo services like the eShop.
Curious about how to buy games to download? The official Nintendo website has all the details you’ll need. And if you’re on the hunt for amazing downloadable content, check out what’s available on our Nintendo eShop site.
To keep up with the latest pricing trends, make sure to visit the Nintendo eShop or look up game-specific pages for accurate info.
Keep in mind, though, you’ll need a Nintendo Account to grab demo games from the Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo Switch. Terms and conditions do apply.
Also, for buying download games or snagging demos and free software directly from the official website, ensuring your Nintendo Account is linked to your Nintendo Switch is essential. Your console must be registered as the active download console for your account by visiting the eShop on it at least once. For those who love the convenience of automatic downloads, make sure your system is updated, connected to the internet with automatic downloads turned on, and that it has enough storage space for your new downloads. For more detailed help, swing by our Support section. Any purchases or demo downloads you make through the Nintendo website go through the Nintendo eShop.
