Nintendo eShop Spotlights – December 12, 2024 | Update

If you haven’t created a Nintendo Account yet, why not sign up now? It’s completely free, and having one opens the door to the My Nintendo rewards program. This means you can rack up points whenever you buy eligible digital games from the Nintendo eShop, interact with Nintendo apps on your smartphone, or simply log into Nintendo services like the eShop itself.

For those curious about purchasing downloadable games, I recommend checking out the official Nintendo website for more details. And if you’re on the hunt for fantastic downloadable content, head over to the Nintendo eShop site to explore.

Remember to peek at the Nintendo eShop or specific game pages for the latest pricing details. To grab demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Switch, you’ll need to register for a Nintendo Account—be aware that terms and conditions apply.

To buy downloadable games or grab demos and free software directly from the Nintendo eShop via the official website, you must link your Nintendo Account to your Switch console. Make sure your console is set as the active one for downloads by accessing the eShop on your device at least once. For seamless automatic downloads, your system should be updated, connected to the internet with automatic downloads enabled, and have enough storage for what you’re downloading. For additional assistance, our Support section is there to help. Keep in mind, any purchases or demo downloads initiated on the Nintendo website are handled through the Nintendo eShop.
