Ever wondered if you can shuffle your favorite games between Nintendo Switch consoles? Let’s clear up that curiosity right here.
So, you’re pondering if moving games to another Switch is doable, huh? Well, you’re in the right place to find out!
Yes, You Can Transfer Games
Good news! Nintendo allows you to transfer Switch games between consoles. This nifty feature means your adventures don’t have to stay on just one device. Pretty cool, right?
To transfer, both Switch consoles need to be connected to the internet. You’ll have to deregister your primary console through your Nintendo account and register the new one as your primary device. Then, you can download your purchased games onto the new Switch. Remember, while you can share games, your progress might not always follow, so check game-specific details for that!
