Nintendo eShop Adds Digital Game Gifting on November 16: Send Games and DLC to Family Group Members
Nintendo announced on November 9 that Nintendo eShop will add digital game gifting on November 16, letting Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 players buy eligible digital games, downloadable content and upgrade packs in the shop and send them to members of their family group.
A family group can have up to eight members. The feature has limits: supervised accounts cannot send gifts, and Nintendo says the number of gift purchases is limited within a given period.
The whole process happens inside the shop: tick "Give as a Gift" on the product page, choose the family group member and their associated console, pick a gift wrap color, and complete the purchase. The gift is delivered straight to the recipient's HOME Menu, ready to accept and play.
Using the feature requires system version 23.5.0 or higher, which was released on November 9. (Source: Nintendo)
