Don’t have a Nintendo Account yet? No worries, it’s easy and free to sign up. Once you’re set up with a Nintendo Account, you can dive into the My Nintendo rewards program, where you’ll earn points for buying eligible digital games from the Nintendo eShop. These points can also be racked up when you use Nintendo apps on your smart devices or simply log into Nintendo services like the eShop.
If you’re curious about how to buy and download games, check out the official Nintendo website for all the details. There’s a treasure trove of downloadable content waiting for you at our Nintendo eShop website, so be sure to have a look and maybe find your next gaming adventure.
For the latest on pricing, make sure to visit the Nintendo eShop or the individual game pages. Remember, you’ll need a Nintendo Account to download demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo Switch—terms and conditions do apply.
To purchase or download games and demos directly from the Nintendo eShop, your Nintendo Account should be linked to your Nintendo Switch console. You’ll also need to register your device as the active console for your Nintendo Account by visiting the eShop at least once on the console you want to use. Make sure your system is updated, connected to the internet, and has automatic downloads enabled, along with enough space to complete the download. For more information, head to our Support section. Just a heads-up, any purchases or demo downloads you make through the Nintendo website are processed through the eShop.
