Click on it, then select the player profile you want to use. This will bring a list of every digital procurement made by you that is compatible with the virtual game card system, and you can click on the relevant card and choose to load it on the console, load it on another console, or lend it to a family group member.

For this example, you will have the main switch and backup switch, and the virtual game card will already be loaded on the main switch. Both of them have to be connected to the same account, so you will need a user on each who is connected to your nintendo account. If you need to link your new switch to your account, follow the steps given below:

• Connect your console to the internet
• Choose your user icon from the home menu to reach your user page.
• Choose “profile”, then “Link Nintendo Account.”
• Follow the on-screen instructions.

Once this happens, you can go to your nintendo account on the Internet, if you want, and load the game from there. You can choose which console you want to load them. If you want to do it through the console yourself, it is slightly more complicated. The good news is that you will only need to do these next steps once:

• Bring the main switch and backup switch closer to each other.
• Connect both to the Internet.
