GAMESHARING INFORMATION

• Game-sharing is an official feature for the Switch. Its original purpose is to let you play your digital games across multiple Switch consoles. But you are also allowed to use this feature to share games with family and friends, although the process is quite complicated.

• Game-sharing works in a Primary console and Secondary console basis. Your Primary will have no limit, while your Secondary will have several limitations.

SAVE DATA AND YOU

※ Note: Save data is stored on the internal memory and not the microSD card.

• How to transfer a profile's data - Copy an entire profile and its save data from Switch A then move it to Switch B, then delete the profile from Switch A.

• How to transfer individual games' save data - Copy an individual game's save data to another Switch, then delete the save data from the original source.

• How to download save data from cloud backup - Requires Nintendo Switch Online subscription. You can keep multiple copies of save data on multiple Switch consoles this way. Make sure to let them sync/update before playing.
※ Note: If your subscription expired, the cloud save backup will be kept for 6 months before deletion.

￮ Exception: Animal Crossing: New Horizon's save data is different and have unique backup and transfer process.

⚠︎ Warning: If you have issue transferring data between Switch consoles (error 2216-5000 with the message "Unable to communicate with the other console."):
• Try connecting both Switch consoles to a different network and attempt the transfer again. (Hotspot will work)
• Delete the Wifi network from both Switch consoles, reconnect them and do it again.
