Nintendo Switch Light Question

[(NSW)DreTheSage]

Can I have Warframe installed on both my regular Nintendo switch and also a Nintendo switch light if I bought it? Will it work for the same account? I only play docked at home and would prefer to bring the Nintendo Switch Light to work or travel since my OG day 1 switch is falling apart.

I don't see why it wouldn't work if you use the same Nintendo account on both consoles. All of your Warframe progress is saved on DE's account servers.

Well, if I understand correctly, they both will be on the same servers, that being the Nintendo/Nintendo switch based servers, so I dont see why that wouldn't work. Like how you can log into the same account from different PC's, im assuming you could do that just as well from different consoles of the same type.

Would be great if someone here whose family already has two OG Switches could test this idea out.

I haven't tested it but Nintendo allows the use of multiple devices under the same account. 

You can link your Nintendo Account to multiple consoles. You can play digital games you've purchased on any Nintendo Switch console that has been linked to your Nintendo Account..

Please note that you can register one primary console per Nintendo Account. Once you've registered a primary console, your digital purchases can be played by anyone that uses the primary console. Other players will not be able to access your digital games on a non-primary console.

You can play digital games that you've purchased with your Nintendo Account on any Nintendo Switch console.

Please note that you can register one primary console per Nintendo Account. Once you've registered a primary console, your digital purchases can be played by anyone that uses the primary console. Other players will not be able to access your digital games on a non-primary console.

Once you've set your primary console, you can change the primary console whenever you'd like through your Nintendo eShop settings.

Physical games can be played on any system you like. Save data for physical and digital titles can be transferred between systems using Save Cloud Data backup (available to Nintendo Switch Online members) or the on-device transfer process.

i'm planning on trying it at least

It would be like switching from xbox one to xbox one x or ps4 to ps4 pro so it should be fine
