Easy-peasy digital downloads

The Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch is a one-stop shop for entertainment. You can find games that can be purchased digitally and downloaded directly onto your system, like Super Mario Odyssey™ and ARMS™. The Nintendo eShop is also the place to find free game demos for some of the hottest games for Nintendo Switch, including Pokkén Tournament™ DX, Snipperclips™—Cut it out, together!, and Just Dance 2018.

In-game extras with amiibo

You can tap compatible amiibo™ figures and cards (sold separately) to score all sorts of in-game perks in compatible games like new characters, game modes, outfits, power-ups, or more. In The Legend of Zelda™: Breath of the Wild game, you can tap a Wolf Link amiibo figure to make Wolf Link appear in the game. Or, you can tap a Zelda 30th Anniversary series amiibo figure to get helpful in-game items…or even a treasure chest! It’s easy to tap amiibo figures and cards with the NFC touchpoint that is built into the right Joy-Con™ controller.

Multiplayer fun for friends and family

Gearing up for family game night? You can connect up to eight Joy-Con controllers to one Nintendo Switch system and compatible games, so all four players can play in their preferred play style and get in on the action with games like Mario Kart 8™ Deluxe. The 1-2-Switch™ game gets players off the couch and into a world of wild face-to-face games. Most games in 1-2-Switch have you looking directly at the other player and not at the TV screen! Each game uses different features of the Joy-Con controller, such as motion control, HD Rumble, or the IR Motion Camera. For intense ink-splatting action, you can check out the Splatoon™ 2 game’s local and online* multiplayer modes. Want to organize a serious tournament? Up to 10 docked Nintendo Switch systems can connect via wired LAN (additional accessories required; sold separately).
