How to GameShare on Switch?

Open the Nintendo eShop on the primary Switch

Sign in with the Nintendo Account that owns the game

On the second Switch, create or use a user profile

Link the same Nintendo Account to that user profile

Set the second Switch as the primary console for that Nintendo Account if needed

Download the game from the eShop on the second Switch

If the game is already on the first Switch, it may need to be played by the account owner only

For digital games, only one console can use the same Nintendo Account at a time for online play

For local sharing, use separate user profiles and the same game license rules

For physical cartridges, insert the game card into the Switch you want to play on

For family sharing, use Nintendo Switch Online Family Membership for eligible features

Check Nintendo’s account and primary console settings if the game does not launch
