How to Enable or Disable the Online License Setting on Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch (MT-10021)
Follow these steps to play downloaded content while connected to the internet, without loading a virtual game card on your console.
Information
If you would like to play your digital games or DLC on more than two consoles, you can turn on the online license setting. When turned on, you can play downloaded software or DLC you've purchased while the console is connected to the internet, even if you don't have a virtual game card loaded.
Complete these steps
Link your Nintendo Account to all of the consoles that you want to play your digital games on.
On one of the consoles, select your user icon from the HOME Menu.
Scroll down and select Online License Settings.
Enable the "Use Online Licenses" setting.
This enables the setting for your Nintendo Account on all of your consoles. You do not need to set it on each console.
Download the games or content you want to access on each console.
On any of your consoles, insert the physical game card or select your downloaded game from the HOME Menu to begin playing the game on that console. Note that you can also continue to use virtual game cards on two of your consoles, even if you have enabled the online license setting.
