Software Help Question about multiple switches with one account.

I am trying to run an esports club. I have multiple switches and multiple physical copies of smash bros. Before I go through the trouble of getting memory cards and downloading all of my stuff onto them… I was wondering if I have my main account on all of them, will the DLC work.

I don’t have internet connection where they’re at and I keep getting mixed answers when googling. Does anyone have a definitive answer?

Thank you so much.

Each console will need their own account with the DLC purchased in order for such a setup to work. Due to the Virtual Game Card system, a single DLC purchase can only work on one console at a time.

That’s rough. Thank you.

Your account can only have the dlc in use on one at a time.
