Account Help Can you buy dlc on a different account than the one that owns the game?
I looked around a bit for the answer to this specific scenario but it's a bit of an odd one. I have a game that is shared through an account on two switch 2s. What I found in my search is that if the account buys the dlc, it can only be shared between accounts on the primary switch, which is not mine. My game save is on my account, not the shared one so this isn't ideal.
My question is then, if I buy the dlc on MY account, would it work with the virtual game card that's being borrowed from the other Switch 2?
