For those interested in buying downloadable games, the official Nintendo website is your go-to hub for all the details. There’s a treasure trove of downloadable content waiting for you on our Nintendo eShop site.
Keep in mind, the latest pricing information is always available on the Nintendo eShop or the game pages. It’s a wise move to check there first to stay updated.
Before you can grab demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Switch, a bit of setup is required. Make sure you’ve registered a Nintendo Account as it’s part of the download process. Be aware that several terms and conditions apply as with most services.
If you’re planning to purchase download games, or simply grab demos and free software from the Nintendo eShop via the official website, having your Nintendo Account linked to your Switch console is crucial. Your console has to be set as the primary device for downloads; this can be done by visiting the eShop on your console at least once. For a seamless download experience, make sure your system is updated, connected to the internet, and has automatic downloads enabled with sufficient storage available. For more detailed guidance, our Support section is at your service. Just remember, all purchases or demo downloads initiated through the Nintendo website go through the Nintendo eShop.
