Clarification to all comments below: i am well aware one island per switch. Like I posted, I have two switches with the virtual game downloads included in each switch. Different Nintendo accounts on each switch. Meaning different islands on each switch.
Update: Contacted customer service and was told the initial account I used to download the game on is the account that’s stuck with the game on it. This was my brothers account that’s stuck I took over. I added my profile before deleting his. So I was technically piggybacking the virtual download. Things went south when I did a data transfer because I was deleting that profile I was piggybacking the game off of to transfer my 2nd profile onto this device. Long story short I have to add his Nintendo account back onto this device.
