<p><pre><code> After the update, digital games on Switch will appear as Virtual Game Cards in a dedicated screen, where users can ‘load’ or ‘eject’ them from their library, as if they were physical cards, whether they belong to a member of the same Nintendo Account family group, or a second console tied to your account. … Users will only be able to lend one game at a time, for two weeks, after which the titles will automatically return to the purchasing user. Save data will be stored after this point. </code></pre> Does a family group already share games, or does the new scheme only allow sharing within a family group? If the former, does it mean the entire group can share only one game at a time or that any member can share one at a time?

This is very cool.<p>I want more companies to do stuff like this. Make it easier to let others borrow digital purchases like how it is easy to let others borrow physical purchases
