Can I Play the Same Game on Two Different Switches?
Direct Answer
In most cases, a gamer can play the same digital game on multiple Nintendo Switch consoles with one account, but with certain limitations.
Multi-Account Situation
One approach is to have two different Nintendo Switch accounts with unique login details, one for each Switch console. In this arrangement, each Switch console corresponds to its dedicated account.
Linking Accounts with One-Night-Stand Accounts
A more cost-effective method involves creating new "One-Night-Stand" local accounts (temporal account) and linking these local accounts with your Nintendo Switch account in a brief one-time usage scenario.
Digital Version Sharing between Two Switch Consoles
Not all game titles offer cloud saves compatible with different console devices.
The Game Sharing
Notably, the only scenario in which you cannot game share from the Nintendo eShop for Switch titles are those in which specific DRM (digital rights management) restrictions exclude the game type from streaming, save the game onto multiple platforms (e.g., two accounts).
