To buy or download games and demos straight from the Nintendo eShop on the official site, you’ll need to have your Nintendo Account linked to your Switch console. Ensure your console is set as the active one for downloads by logging into the eShop at least once on the device you want to use. Make sure your system is up-to-date, connected to the internet, and has automatic downloads turned on with enough space to handle the download. For more details, swing by our Support section. Any purchases or demo activations on the Nintendo site are processed via the eShop.
