Curious about how you can purchase downloadable games? Dive into the official Nintendo website where everything’s laid out for you. And if you’re on the hunt for more downloadable goodies, the Nintendo eShop website has a treasure trove of content waiting for you.
Before you head off shopping, take a quick look at the Nintendo eShop or visit the game pages to catch the latest pricing details. Keep in mind, you’ll need a Nintendo Account to snag demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo Switch. As always, terms and conditions will apply.
To buy download games or grab demos and free software from the Nintendo eShop via the official site, linking your Nintendo Account to your Nintendo Switch console is a must. Just make sure your console is registered as the active one for downloads by visiting the Nintendo eShop at least once on the device you plan to use. For those automatic downloads, ensure your system is updated, connected to the internet with auto-downloads switched on, and has enough space for the new content.
