How to Deregister a Nintendo Account's Pass-Enabled Console
Support | Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2
Follow these steps to deregister the pass-enabled console for your Nintendo Account.
Note
- Deregistering one console will allow you to select a different console as the pass-enabled console for your Nintendo Account. Each Nintendo Account can have one pass-enabled Nintendo Switch console at a time.
- This feature is available in countries/regions where Nintendo eShop is available.
Complete These Steps:
How would you like to deregister your pass-enabled Nintendo Switch console?
