Can I transfer my Nintendo ID to another 3DS?

Yes, it is possible to transfer your Nintendo ID from one 3DS to another. Here are the steps you need to take in order to do so:

1. Make sure you have a Nintendo Network ID for your 3DS.

2. Create a 12-digit transfer code from the source Nintendo 3DS system.

3. Log into the destination system with a Nintendo Network ID.

4. Enter the transfer code created in step 2.

5. After completing the process, you will be able to access all previously purchased content, Nintendo Network ID information (preferences, saved data, and registered friends) from the source 3DS system on the destination 3DS.

Note: Unfortunately, you will not be able to transfer Nintendo IDs or other data between a Nintendo 3DS family system and a Nintendo Switch system. Additionally, if you have parental controls enabled, you will need to perform the transfer process twice – once for the Parent/Guardian Nintendo Network ID, and once for the associated Child Nintendo Network ID.

No, deleting your Nintendo Network ID will not delete your games. Your game data, such as save files, will remain on the system even after your Nintendo Network ID is deleted. However, if you have any downloadable content (DLC), any software or other data acquired with your Nintendo Network ID, these will be lost if it is deleted.

If you plan on deleting your Nintendo Network ID, it is recommended to delete any downloadable content associated with that ID first, so as not to lose out on any purchases you made. You can also transfer content to another account before deleting your account.

3. Scroll down and select the ‘Close account’ button.

4. Read the warning message carefully, and if you are sure you want to proceed, click ‘Close Account.’

If you decide you want to create a new Nintendo Account in the future, you will need to use a different email address.

Can you unlink a Nintendo Account from a profile?

Yes, it is possible to unlink a Nintendo Account from a profile. To do this, go to the settings of the console or device where the profile is linked and select “Nintendo Network ID”, followed by the option to “Unlink.

” This will remove any transaction information associated with the profile and allow you to use the Nintendo Account for other profiles on different systems. Alternatively, if the profile is on a Nintendo Switch or Nintendo 3DS, you can also access the settings from a mobile device and choose the option to unlink the account from the profile there.

It is important to note that this will not delete any associated game data and save data, so if you want to remove that information, you will have to do so manually.

Can you change the Nintendo Account linked to a user?

This will allow you to manage all connected accounts and switch to a different Nintendo Account. After making the change, simply sign out and sign in again with the new account details. This will ensure the new account is loaded onto the Nintendo user profile.

How do I unregister a secondary switch?

To unregister a secondary switch, the first thing you need to do is to power off the secondary switch. Once the power is off, remove the network and power cables connected to the switch. Now, access the CLI using SSH, Telnet or the local console port of the secondary switch.

Once you are in the CLI, use the ‘show switch’ command to make sure the switch is unregistered from the primary switch. If the switch is still registered to the primary switch, use the ‘unregister switch’ command to unregister it.

Finally, to confirm the switch is unregistered, use the ‘show switch’ command again. Once the switch is unregistered successfully, it is safe to remove the switch from the network.

How many switches can I link my account to?

That depends on the type of account you have. Most bank accounts allow you to link as many as you’d like, however some accounts will be limited to a certain number of switches. Some institutions may even require that you fill out a separate application for each switch or have each switch verified by the bank or institution.

Additionally, please be aware that some banks may charge a fee for each switch that you link up to your account. To find out the exact details for your account, it is best to reach out to your bank or institution directly.

No, deleting Switch user will not delete games. When you delete the user on your Switch console, any personal data associated with the account will be erased, such as saved data, installed games, and other information.

However, any games that are associated with your Nintendo Account will remain associated with your account, so you will not lose access to them even after deleting a user. It is important to note that this information is associated with your Nintendo Account, not your Switch console; deleting a user on one Switch console will not affect the information saved to your Nintendo Account on another Switch console.
