How to Get Points on Nintendo Switch: Your Ultimate Guide

Last updated
Ever wondered how you can rack up those points on your Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone! Let’s dive into how you can start earning points and what you can do with them.
So, what’s the scoop on getting points on the Nintendo Switch? We’ve got you covered with all the info you need!
Start Earning Points Through Purchases
The primary way to earn points on the Nintendo Switch is through purchasing games. Every time you buy a game, whether it’s a digital download from the Nintendo eShop or a physical copy, you can earn points.
For digital purchases, points get automatically added to your account. For physical copies, you’ll need to manually claim your points by selecting the game icon on the home menu, pressing the ‘+’ or ‘-’ button, and then choosing to redeem points. Remember, you can only claim points from physical purchases within a year from the game’s release date!
Use Points for Discounts and More
Now, what can you do with these points you’ve been collecting? Well, they’re actually quite versatile! You can use your points to get discounts on future purchases from the Nintendo eShop. This means the more games you buy, the more you save.
It’s also worth noting that these points don’t last forever. They expire after a certain period, so make sure to use them before they vanish into thin air. Who doesn’t love a good discount on their next game, right?
