Nintendo released update 20.0.0 for Switch today with changes that help users prepare for Switch 2. Players can turn digital games into virtual game cards that they load between two systems. These cards let family members share games through the same Nintendo Account group. The update adds GameShare, which lets nearby players enjoy games together through local wireless connections, but only when started from a Switch 2 system.

Users must verify themselves with a PIN or Nintendo Account to use virtual game cards. As long as they stay online, people can play their downloaded games without loading virtual cards. The update helps move save files between Switch systems through local transfers or cloud uploads. This new menu allows multiple saves to be transferred at once.

Nintendo warns players who need to upload their data before receiving a Switch 2 that the original Switch resets to factory settings after uploading. The company suggests waiting until players have both systems before transferring if they want to keep using their current Switch. This helps everyone prepare for the coming console generation.
