I was wondering if I made a brand new account and shared this account with a friend. If I bought dlc on this account can we both use the dlc on our switches with different accounts?
@Adnanilyas21 Short answer, No. You can't share DLC. And you can't share an account like you're thinking, if I understand you.
The only way to share an account is to make one console the "primary" console, and the other a "secondary" console. The problem is, that setup is intended for one person, and only one console can play a at a time. You can't play both at the same time. Nintendo made that system in case someone has a regular Switch for home tv, and a Switch Lite for on-the-go. They can play a game on the tv, turn that off, and then continue the game on the Switch Lite.
For clarification, it does work that way.
I have my friend's account on my switch as a secondary. If she's not online playing something, I can play the copy of LEGO World's she bought on the eShop, on my switch. In a different household.
