How to Remove a Nintendo Account from a Family Group

Description:

Instructions on releasing a Nintendo Account from a family group.

Additional Information:

  • Users with supervised accounts who are under the age of 13 or who have not yet registered an email address cannot be removed from a family group. However, these accounts can be transferred to a different family group.

  • When a member is removed, all Nintendo eShop restrictions will be lifted and account history will not be visible to the supervisor anymore.

  • Nintendo Switch Online family membership is available to all users in the membership owner's family group.

    • If a member leaves the owner's family group, they will no longer be covered by that family membership.

    • If the membership owner leaves the group, the other members of the family group will no longer be covered by that family membership.

Complete These Steps:

Family group members can be removed by either the family group admin, or by a member removing themselves.
