Haven’t set up a Nintendo Account yet? No worries, you can easily sign up for free. By having a Nintendo Account, you’re granted access to the My Nintendo rewards program, where you earn points for buying eligible digital games from the Nintendo eShop. Plus, you’ll rack up points by using Nintendo apps on your smart device or simply by signing into various Nintendo services, like the eShop.
If you’re interested in buying downloadable games, you can find all the details on their official website. And if you want to explore more download content, the Nintendo eShop site is the place to be.
When it comes to pricing, make sure to check the Nintendo eShop or visit the game pages for the latest information. To download demos on your Nintendo Switch from the eShop, you’ll need to register a Nintendo Account—terms and conditions apply.
Also, if you’re looking to purchase downloadable games or grab demos and free software right from the Nintendo eShop on their official website, a linked Nintendo Account is necessary. Your account must be connected to your Switch console, which needs to be set as the active console for downloading. Ensure your system is updated, online, and has automatic downloads turned on, alongside sufficient storage, to seamlessly complete downloads. For further assistance, take a look at our Support section. Remember, purchases and demo downloads initiated through the Nintendo website are handled via the Nintendo eShop.
