Nintendo's Virtual Game Cards: Sharing Digital Switch Games Made Easy
2025-03-27
Nintendo unveiled Virtual Game Cards for the Nintendo Switch, launching late April. This new feature allows sharing digital games across multiple Switch consoles. Purchased digital games are stored as Virtual Game Cards, virtually loaded and ejected like physical cartridges. A single game can be played on up to two Switches simultaneously, and family sharing is enabled via local wireless, with a two-week lending period. This enhances digital game flexibility and convenience.
