Remember, if you’re looking to download demos on the Nintendo Switch, you’ll need to have a Nintendo Account. Terms and conditions apply, as always.
Here’s a little nugget of info: To snag those downloadable games or demos from the Nintendo eShop via the official site, you’ll need to link your Nintendo Account to your Nintendo Switch console. It’s important to make sure your console is registered as the active download console by visiting the eShop on it at least once. For downloads to happen automatically, your system should be up-to-date, connected to the internet, with automatic downloads turned on, and have enough storage space. Need more help?

Happy gaming!
