Nintendo has released a significant system update (version 20.0.0) for the Switch that introduces Virtual Game Cards, allowing users to manage and share digital games easily across multiple consoles. The update also prepares for the upcoming Switch 2 by enabling GameShare functionality, facilitating local multiplayer gameplay with just one copy of select games. However, GameShare is not fully operational yet. A visual overhaul of the Nintendo eShop and system icons accompanies these new features, marking a major step in enhancing the user experience.
Nintendo's system update 20.0.0 introduces the revolutionary Virtual Game Card ownership system, enabling shared ownership of digital games among multiple Switch consoles.
Users can now easily manage their collection of digital games via the neat Virtual Game Cards menu, allowing for lending within family groups.
The update also enables basic functionality for GameShare, facilitating local multiplayer game sharing amongst Switch 2 users, reminiscent of the Nintendo DS's Download Play.
Despite the excitement over GameShare and Virtual Game Cards, users cannot yet utilize the GameShare feature until more games become compatible with Switch 2.
