Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use this card on the Nintendo Switch?

I bought one for my nephew for Christmas in 2017, but it didn't work with the Nintendo Switch. Could you please share how you got this to work for Switch if you know how?

I only want to know if it's a digital code or a physical card, and how I'll get the code. ?

It's a physical card with a code, similar to a regular gift card. However, I believe you can purchase a digital version to send to someone's email address. This, on the other hand, is unmistakably a physical card.

These cards' descriptions have been updated to state that they work with the switch. I just spoke with Nintendo, and they were unable to confirm this information. anyone?

I purchased one for my nephew for Christmas 2017, but it was not compatible with Switch.

It also works on Switch
5/5

There isn't a lot to say about this; It does exactly what it should. It's also compatible with the Nintendo Switch. br>br>Purchasing this is a good filler item if you need to fill your cart with enough items to ship your Amazon order. If you plan to buy Nintendo games digitally, it's as good as cash.

They are compatible with the Nintendo Switch
4/5

They're also compatible with the Nintendo Switch, but there's a catch. You'll need a 3DS/2DS or a Wii U to play this game. You'll need a Nintendo Network ID to get started. NNID stands for Nintendo Network Identification, and it grants you access to the Nintendo eShop. br>Enter your username and password to access your account. br>Use your 3DS or Wii U to enter the code on the card.

Because a Nitendo Switch requires a specific card, these gift cards were a waste! Very let down
3/5

I spent $20 on three of them. My grandson received 00 gift cards for his birthday, but he cannot use them because he owns a Nitendo Switch! br>I don't believe that was made clear when I bought them, and I only discovered it now, after the return deadline had passed! It is not something I would suggest.

The gift certificate is not valid
3/5

I purchased a gift card, but it did not work! It's very disappointing to pay $20 for my son's birthday present and find nothing on it, and I can't get in touch with anyone!.

IMPORTANT NOTICE FOR PARENTS! This card is only compatible with the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Wii
3/5

FOR THE NINTENDO SWITCH, IT'S UTTERLY INVALUABLE! Please be aware that this Cars is only compatible with the WiiU and 3DS systems from Nintendo. It's ridiculous that it's being sold this way with the intention of being used on the Nintendo Eshop, but it'll only give you credit for these two old systems. I'm sure your child is playing with the NINTENDO SWITCH these days, and the cards are identical. I bought this for my son's birthday, and when we tried to use it, it didn't work. It's not going to work in the Eshop. Which is absurd, given that the Eshop is a Nintendo-certified online store that sells games for all platforms! So I just squandered $50 on something that isn't returnable!.

It's compatible with the Nintendo Switch, as well as the Nintendo 3DS and Nintendo Wii U
5/5

There isn't much else to say except that the code worked and was easy to enter. It's also compatible with Nintendo's Switch.

Purchase is not recommended! This product arrived quickly, but when I went to peel off the back to redeem the code, the entire piece of paper came off with it
3/5

You can only see about half of the code! I'm not going to buy anything else in the future. You won't be able to replace it. What a colossal squandering of money.
