How to Add a User to Your Nintendo Switch

Ever wondered how you can add a user to your Nintendo Switch? Sharing the gaming fun with family and friends is easier than you think!

Let’s break down how to welcome more gamers to your Nintendo Switch party. It’s simple, quick, and will double your fun on this versatile console.

The Quick Guide to Adding Users

To add a user to your Nintendo Switch, start on the Home screen. Look for the ‘System Settings’ icon, it’s the one that looks like a little gear. Give that a click!

Scroll down the menu until you find ‘Users,’ and then tap ‘Add User.’ Now, you get to pick a cool icon for the new profile. Nintendo offers a bunch of fun options, so pick one that stands out! Next, choose a nickname for the new user. This name will show up on the Home screen, so make it something memorable.

Why Add a User on Your Nintendo Switch?

Adding users is the gateway to personalized gaming experiences. Each user gets their own save files and game settings. This means you can jump into a game where you left off, without messing up someone else’s adventure. It’s perfect for households with more than one gamer!

Think about it: separate accounts for mom, dad, and the kids. Everyone gets their own game space, and there’s no fighting over who’s further in ‘The Legend of Zelda.’
