Wondering how you can add your friends on your Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone! It’s all about getting connected and sharing the fun with buddies. Let’s dive into how you can do this easily.
So, how exactly do you add friends on your Nintendo Switch? Keep reading and we’ll lay it out step-by-step for you.
Quick Steps to Add Friends on Nintendo Switch
First things first, you’ll need your own friend code. Your Nintendo Switch has a unique code that you can share with others. Here’s how to find it: Go to your Home screen, select your profile picture at the top left, and voilà! Your friend code appears under your profile name. It’s like your own secret gamer ID!
Next, to add a friend, head back to the Home screen and select ‘Add Friend.’ You can enter their friend code here. Or, if you’ve played with someone online and hit it off, you can send them a friend request directly from the ‘Users You Have Played With’ list. Easy, right?
