Last updated
Ever find yourself wanting to switch up your Nintendo eShop account, but not sure how? You’re not alone! Changing your Nintendo eShop account might sound tricky, but it’s actually pretty straightforward.
Changing your Nintendo eShop account involves a few simple steps. Whether you need a new account for a different region or just want to switch accounts, we’ve got you covered.
Quick Steps to Change Your Nintendo eShop Account
The easiest way to change your Nintendo eShop account is by creating a new user profile on your Nintendo Switch. When you create a new profile, the system lets you link it to a different Nintendo Account. This means you can access the eShop under a new account, effectively changing your eShop experience.
First, go to the System Settings on your Nintendo Switch. Scroll down to ‘Users’ and select ‘Add User.’ Follow the prompts to create a new user and link it to a new or existing Nintendo Account. Voila! You now have access to the eShop under a different account. It’s important to note that each user profile on the Nintendo Switch can only be linked to one Nintendo Account at a time.
