Switch 20 Update Lets You Loan Games and GameShare

Nintendo gave Switch a facelift with update 20.0.0. Digital games appear as Virtual Game Cards that users can lend to family or friends for 14 days. These cards work on two linked systems at once. The update also adds GameShare, letting Switch users invite nearby Switch users to play their games over local wireless connections without buying extra copies.

The home screen looks different with new icons. The eShop button changed from yellow to red. Every game shows a blue card icon to help users see what they have. Nintendo added system transfer tools for the upcoming Switch 2 launch on June 5. Users can upload their stuff before they even buy the new system.

The update lets people lock their Virtual Game Cards with a PIN for security. It also helps users play digital games without loading cards when online. Nintendo threw in updated profile pictures and tools to move several save files at once. These changes make sharing games easier and help everyone prepare for the Switch 2's arrival.
