Let’s dive into exactly how you can delete games from your Nintendo Switch Lite, creating more room for all the new adventures waiting for you.
Quick Steps to Delete Games
To delete games on your Nintendo Switch Lite, first open the Home Menu. Then, navigate to ‘System Settings’ > ‘Data Management’ > ‘Manage Software’. Select the game you want to remove and choose ‘Delete Software’. Confirm your choice, and voilà, the game is gone!
