It’s important to note that to download demos from the Nintendo eShop on your Nintendo Switch, you’ll need to register for a Nintendo Account. Terms and conditions do apply.
To buy downloadable games, grab demos, or get free software directly from the Nintendo eShop on the website, your Nintendo Account must be connected to your Nintendo Switch console. Make sure your console is registered as the active one for downloads by visiting the eShop on the device at least once. For those who enjoy automatic downloads, your system needs to be up-to-date, connected to the internet, with auto-downloads switched on, and there should be adequate storage to accommodate your download. For more details, check out our Support section. Just a heads up, any purchases or demo activations you make through Nintendo’s website are processed through the Nintendo eShop.
