If you haven’t created a Nintendo Account yet, now’s a great time to do so. It’s free to sign up, and once you’re in, you can tap into the My Nintendo rewards program. You’ll earn points for a variety of activities like buying eligible digital games from the Nintendo eShop, using Nintendo’s apps on your smart devices, or even just logging into Nintendo services like the eShop itself.
For guidance on how to purchase downloadable games, make sure to check out the official Nintendo website. There’s also a treasure trove of exciting content waiting for you at the Nintendo eShop—go explore what’s on offer!
When it comes to pricing, keep an eye on Nintendo eShop or individual game pages to get the most current information. Remember, you’ll need a Nintendo Account to download demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Switch, and there are some terms and conditions that apply.
One thing to note: To buy or download games and demos from the Nintendo eShop via their site, your Nintendo Account must be linked to your Switch console. Make sure your console is set as the active device for downloads by visiting the eShop on it at least once. For hassle-free automatic downloads, your system should be up-to-date, connected to the internet, have automatic downloads enabled, and enough storage available. If you want more details, head over to our Support section. And just so you know, purchases and demo activations made on the Nintendo website are processed via the eShop.
