The Short and Sweet on Switching Accounts
Changing your Fortnite account on the Nintendo Switch isn’t as tricky as it might seem. First off, you’ll need to head to the main menu on your Switch and select “System Settings.” Scroll down to “Users,” find the profile linked to the Fortnite account you want to change, and select “Delete User.” Don’t worry; this won’t delete your Nintendo account or your game data.
