My Nintendo switch is broken too bought a new one few weeks later. I did the deregister...and it keeps saying not primary account. Can't play my booster pack for Mario kart

[@gamingforeveryone8457]

​@@gabechavez5680 where i cant find it

[@wendigotamer1173]

Even though mine is deactivated it says it still active on another console

[@FIRE4NOREASON]

I'm having the same issue. I sold my previous Nintendo Switch not knowing I needed to deregister it.

[@Lucam20]

i lost my primary console swich, what should i do now??, is there any way to replace it on the nintendo website?

[@bigmetroidfan911]

What should be done if you get this message "The requested page could not be found."?

[@CeoOfBettt]

I have lost access to my other switch and want to make my new one the primary console but it won’t let me cause my other switch that no longer works is the primary console what do I do

[@ShotoTodoroki-jv5du]

Did you ever find a way?

[@CeoOfBettt]

@@ShotoTodoroki-jv5du I don’t remember the exact steps, but you can disable primary console through the Nintendo website and activate it on the new switch through the e shop

[@darklord9581]

@@ShotoTodoroki-jv5duso it’s still online but instead of using a shop menu you have to go into your account settings “linked app and services” idk why they made it so complicated it’s like they want us to get a new switch lol

[@the_dsgn_lab]

What do I do if the only switch I have is not my primary? I have no option to make it my primary?

[@gwillum83]

Nah it didn’t work, it kept putting it back on the other switch

[@carlosmelendez8317]

My Switch keeps asking me to Link a Nintendo account and when I do it Links some user I've never seen???

[@mrtvgamess]

Thank you this was extremely helpful for me and my friend.

[@jedijvon]

Finally very helpful

[@sailorellie1139]

THANK YOU 😀

[@Firehawk3672]

This isn’t helping my problem, my Little brother deregistered my switch and now I can’t reregister it as the primary

[@R1IY2N]

Thing is u need to login to deregister a switch

[@Firehawk3672]

@@R1IY2N that’s the problem, idk how my switch became deregistered, I didn’t do it, and I don’t think it does that by itself, I did contact support and have the problem resolved, they said my account was registered…. To MY switch on their end, so that was confusing as hell

[@PotatoCouch666]

I dont have the deregister option….

[@staysi1235]

Hey I have some questions and hope you could help 1 If you deregister from the eShop, does it affect your saves? (And disconnect you completely? Or only from the eShop) 2. Does it make my second console with this user, primary?

[@brianabones]

Did you find your answers? I got a new switch and didn’t know about this. Got on the air plan yesterday and couldn’t play any of my games offline! I don’t want to lose my data on my (current) primary console if I deregister it remotely.

[@Clownkiller1233]

Thank you

[@Dragoomy_]

Does it matter what account I de register it in?

[@joeykidd9294]

What should we do if our switch was stolen though?

[@VastumTempus]

Thanks

[@haiderchowhan1737]

Annoyingly realised this was an issue when I was on a flight for 8 hours 😩😩😩 Usually just use the Switch when I’m at someone’s and I’m on the Wi-Fi lol. I do have two switchs but just wanted to check if I register my new switch as the Primary does this mean the other one is redundant and can’t be used?

[@brianabones]

Did you find your answer? Same thing happened to me. Only a 2.5 hour flight but super annoying!!

[@JoyMs10]

I have two consoles and they are pretty much mirrored. How do I separate the two?

[@ericalexanderson3442]

Create a new profile but only on one of them. Use different profile eacc time you play and it will have different save files. You do not have to connect to Nintendo profile unless you plan to play online with the second account.

[@furydeath]

cause nintendo wont tell how to do it

[@saintsummerz]

Can you undo this?

[@Reaper12131]

Very helpful thank you

[@calikcoolboygames]

Why would you do that tho

[@milld55]

It just says “not this console” on my new switch

[@milld55]

Nevermind i fixed it

[@stormyeezy]

How did you fix it?

[@mathiaslaustrup]

HOW?!@@milld55

[@jonnyperez3323]

Can you do this online on the website ???
