Hacking Question Change Switch account

[AnagraM]

Hello,

I've bought a second Switch to keep my 3.0 in a box and be able to keep playing to recent games on the other one.
I see in the help that I can activate my Nintendo account on multiple devices, but it seems I need to deactivate the first on through the eshop first.
Any idea how to do that any other way ? I can't access eshop as I'm still on 3.0..

call nintnedo and say you sold the activated one or somthen, the only way to deactivate it is by nintendo if you cant access the eshop

I tried that once with my 3DS. And they simply said create a new account.

did you buy any games on it? it would be pretty shitty if they just said fuck all the games you bought.

I did the same thing. I had to call Nintendo and they'll deactivate it for you. They usually do it for free the first time

its probably a security thing so if some rando that gets your my nintendo account email they cant just keep deactivating it without consequence.
