Quick Steps to Set Your Switch as Primary
Setting your Nintendo Switch as the primary console is easier than you might think. First, you need to understand that this setting is tied to your Nintendo account. So, make sure you’re ready with your account details.
Here’s how to do it: First, open the eShop on the Nintendo Switch you want to set as primary. Select your account profile from the top-right corner. Then, navigate through the menu to find ‘Primary Console’ settings. Here, you can designate this Switch as your primary console. It’s as simple as that!
Why Make Your Switch the Primary Console?
Making your Nintendo Switch the primary console has cool benefits. It lets you play your digital game purchases while offline, and share these games with other users on the same device. Plus, it ensures your game downloads start on this console automatically. It’s all about making life easier and your gaming experience smoother.
Remember, you can only have one primary console at a time for your Nintendo account. This doesn’t mean you can’t access your games on other consoles, but you’ll need an internet connection for that.
