Topic: Can i share games with my kid on separate switches?

Posts 1 to 5 of 5

I bought 2 switches for christmas (one for me and a lite for my daughter) and havent made the accounts yet. Is there a way to set up our accounts so that i can buy games in my account and share them with her on her switch? i dont want to buy physical copies because she might lose them (unless theres a way to copy the games so i can make extra copies of my cartridge in case she loses them). I called nintendo for help with this but they said that was not possible. i refuse to believe theres no way to share digital copes with my daughter since i own a license for the game when i buy it and its fair use to share it with the members of your household. any help and suggestions will be appreciated.

So, theoretically from this article, I can set up the tv console as a "primary", and then have my account on multiple switches for the kids to play the games through my profile? Such as 1 primary and 2 secondary?

Like I said you need to contact Switch Support for such questions as no one answers from users on here will be the same. So Contact Nintendo Support when asking such questions.
