Ever wondered how to get your brand new game up and running on your Nintendo Switch? Well, you’re in the right place!

Let’s take a dive into how exactly you can insert a game card into your Nintendo Switch. This guide will make it as easy as 1-2-3!

Step-by-Step Guide to Inserting Your Game Card

First things first, locate the game card slot on your Nintendo Switch. You’ll find this at the top of your device. Look for a small, rectangular door that you can flip open – this is where the magic happens.

Now, take your game card. You’ll notice it has a front and a back – the front has the game’s artwork, and the back has the golden contacts. You’ll want to insert the game card with the artwork facing the same direction as the Switch’s screen. Gently slide the card in until it clicks. Voila! You’re ready to play.
