Hello! I lent my old switch and cartridges to my brother while he's on vacation and I was wondering if it is possible to transfer the save files that are stored on my Nintendo account's cloud to my new switch that I just bought, even without the cartridges in hand (neither the official digital version). Has anyone ever tried that? I'm on the fence about subscribing for a month just to be able to transfer my saves over the internet. Thank you very much in advance.
As far as I understand, you need the help of your brother as well to do the transfer.
You need to initiate the transfer with the source Switch.

You can transfer it but you need the source and target switch locally. Keep in mind if you don't transfer the whole profile and just the save for one game you lose the hours log in your activity when you just transfer the save instead of the whole profile. You could just use cloud save feature if the game support cloud.
