If you've just joined the Nintendo ecosystem, you're going to want to create an account so you can buy games, get special promotions, and more.
If you've just purchased a Nintendo Switch or a Nintendo Switch OLED and a physical game card to go with it, you may not have even tried visiting the digital game store yet. Nintendo's eShop is where you can buy games, watch videos, and even sample demos of some games.
