You are being restricted by gamesharing feature. You were on a secondary console.
Ohh
Ok so
How do I get rid of this thing
LIKW how do I make this new switch my primary switch now?
So what’s the game sharing feature anyway and why is it so lame
Well why does it not np let me game share ig 🙄
On the old Switch: Go to the eShop, click on your avatar to get into eShop settings, scroll down and find "Deregister Primary Switch"
The next Switch you login in will become the primary.
I can’t access my main switch 😭
Like the old one
The root of all my problems 💀😭😭😭😭😭
Oh haha
no worry, 1 sec
2nd Method is for when you do not have access to the Switch console (e.g. stolen, lost,...):
Go to Nintendo website (https://accounts.nintendo.com/) > Shop Menu > Scroll down to Deregister Primary Console. You can only use this method once per year.
You are welcome haha
Do it first and see if it worked or not
It should be though, if you are the only owner.
Ok wait so now how do i register my new switch
As the primary console
…
Ok no wait
On y 18+ Account it’s been registered so problem solved
But do yk y it’s days that on my other users (under 18 ones)
You have to deregister on the console that was Primary, you can't register primary on the console that was Secondary.
