How to transfer data from Nintendo Switch to Switch OLED
13.03.2024 - 07:07 / digitaltrends.com / Nintendo
If you’ve picked up a new Nintendo Switch OLED, you already know that it’s a substantial upgrade from the previous iterations of the console. What you may not know, however, is how to transfer your data from your old Switch to your new Switch OLED.
Unfortunately, the transfer process isn’t as straightforward as you might expect, so it can be confusing to get things going. However, we’ve got all the details on how to migrate your user data from one Switch to another, even if you don’t have access to your previous system and best Switch games. Here’s how to transfer your data from your Switch to the Switch OLED.
How to transfer data from Switch to Switch OLED
Step 1
You’ll need your original Switch, along with the new Switch OLED turned on, to begin the transfer process between the two. Both systems need to be plugged in for this so they don’t die in the middle of the transfer. (If you don’t have access to the old Switch system, you can skip down to the alternative method we have below.)

From here, select the System Update option, and if an update is available, it will begin downloading.
Step 3
After the system has been updated, make your way back to System Settings > Users > Add User > Import User Data from Another Console.
Step 4
Then, the system will ask you if you still have the console with the account you want to import. Select Yes. After that, it’ll ask if you still intend on using the previous console. The answer to this question will differ from person to person, but it’s likely you won’t be using the older system anymore.
We selected No in our case. You’ll be notified that the data will be deleted from the source system after the transfer process is complete, which is fine since everything will be available on the new OLED system. Press Next, and you’ll be taken to the following screen. Click Transfer to begin the process.
Step 5
At this point, the system will ask you to sign in to the Nintendo Account for the user that will be transferred. Select Sign In and you’ll be presented with two options: Sign in using email and password or sign in using a QR code and smart device. Pick whichever one you’d like, but note that the QR code option is convenient and easy.
If you select the QR code method, you’ll
