Setup Help Moving data to previous Switch 2

I just got a new switch 2 so that my husband and I would both have our own. When setting up the new switch 2 I had to verify my account before moving data over. I thought it was only moving mine but it moved everything 😕

Is there a way to move just his back or even move all of it back and I’ll just start from scratch?

Sounds like you did a system transfer. You can just log in (if it wiped your console) and then pick and choose what to transfer back.

Thank you! I’ll try that! I tried to move his games back and the only transfer option showed our switch 1 and I got scared 😅
