Hello! I have a question regarding Switch digital games transfer, I've tried to look up online here and on Reddit and on Nintendo's Customer Service website but it's such a byzantine system I'm getting pretty confused. Hopefully someone knows the answer to this.
Through a series of fortunate events, I've found myself in possession of two Switch consoles, my main one that I use regularly and another one that was gifted to me. I was hoping to leave my second Switch for my partner to play, he likes strategy games and there's a couple available for the Switch I thought he may be interested in (Cities: Skylines and the upcoming Civ 6). However, he's not a regular player and may loose interest after a while... he's put in +500 hours on Civilization Revolution on the DS but hardly ever plays these days.
I was wondering if there's a way of buying these two games digitally on my second Switch and if he ends up not playing the console regularly and I find myself wanting to sell it, is there a way to transfer these games from his Switch account onto mine? I wouldn't want to lose those games if they're linked to the console, I'd love to play them myself as well.
Any help appreciated. THANKS FOR READING.
