How to Add Your Nintendo Account to Your Switch

Let’s dive right into how you can link your Nintendo account to your Switch, step by step.

Quick Guide to Linking Your Nintendo Account

First things first, you need a Nintendo account. If you don’t have one yet, head over to the Nintendo website and sign up. It’s super easy and free!

Once you’ve got your Nintendo account ready, turn on your Switch. You’ll need to go to the System Settings, which looks like a little gear icon on the home screen. Scroll down and find “Users,” then select “Add User.” Click “Create a New User” or choose an icon if you’re replacing an old account. After choosing an icon and nickname, select “Link a Nintendo Account.” Now, you can sign in using your Nintendo account details. That’s it! Your Nintendo account is now linked to your Switch.
