Who’s excited for the Switch?

With less than 24 hours to go and with hype at an all time high, Nintendo plans to wrap up their series of daily informational videos. Today, the official Nintendo YouTube channel, posted a video showing viewers how to create a Nintendo account, for first-time users.

The video shows off some basic stuff like creating a Nintendo ID, date of birth, and accepting the license agreement. However, the video also goes on to show viewers how to set up parental controls and much more. Check it out down below:

With the day-one update now live, Switch users can now access the eShop, add friends (using friend codes), and more. This has led to the discovery that you can sign into the eShop from other regions, including Japan, where there are traditionally a plethora of a games released that never make their way overseas. This is done by making a profile on the system and connecting it to a new Nintendo Account account that is set to the region whose eShop you want to access.

Nintendo Switch is set tomorrow Friday, March 3.
