You can play the same digital game at the same time as long as you are not using online features.
Same situation here, kids have a full size switch (set as primary) and I have a lite. We play animal crossing, mario 3d world and others side by side. Just can't connect to rack other.
Works the same way as having 2 Xboxes.

You can account share on Xbox and PS so that you can play online together via different accounts. Switch doesn't have that.

Ok so no online play but we could play two player games side by side in person? Same account etc.

That would depend on the game, you'd have to try it out.
If the only way to get a 2 player game between 2 switches is via online then no.
Logically, I can't see why they would let you, if you bought physical you would need 2 carts. I was surprised even launching the same game at the same time even worked when we tried it.

Exactly yes, that's exactly how it works.
All games are bought on my account, the main switch is set as primary consome and any user on that switch can play whatever is installed on there
On my lite or other switch I just have to have an internet connection for the non primary license check.. and then off you go playing the same game
Only time you have an issue is when you try and play online on same game. You don't need to actually turn off WiFi on the primary switch

My daughter got two copies of the same Switch game for Chrismtas - specifically, Game Builder Garage. I'm selling one on Facebook Marketplace but happy to take offers from here too. www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2100545866774777/Let me know if anyone's interested.

Can't believe the Switch has outsold the Wii!

Been using my Switch through a new monitor that I recently bought. But only just dawned on me that I can play some Switch games in TATE mode. Nice!

That's very nice. Pinball FX3 would be very nice in tate mode.

It's due out in April isn't it? It's just a remake so not sure what else new they could show.
Some surprises would be nice though.

I was saving you the effort of correcting it but now you've done it my effort was wasted. THANKS

I want Switch remakes of the first two Golden Sun games, although at this point I've pretty much given up on the idea.

Nice timing. Obviously some more info on Advance Wars would be great. I've pre-ordered Kirby for next month and Advance Wars for April, so anything else in this first half of the year would be a nice bonus! I wonder if Splatoon will sneak its way out by June?

I think Splatoon will be before July IF Zelda is releasing this year. Zelda could be the Christmas game. If not then Splatoon could fill that gap with some sort of remaster for the June/July slot Metroid or those Zelda ports maybe

Wind Waker HD launches MARCH 30th £49.99 alongside Twilight Princess HD £49.99.
I joke. I do want Wind Waker again as the Wii-U version was sublime.

I'd probably buy it again even though my Wii U is sitting in a box behind me and I wouldn't even need to venture into the loft. Ditto with TP.
Remastered MP trilogy and a Samus Returns port please...
Who am I kidding though, they'll probably announce a new fighter pass for Smash and spend 90% of the stream going over that.

Wave Racer, Pilotwings, Goldeneye.
That'll do :-)

Having just started Bravely Default 2, I’d like another one of those in the pipeline as it is absolutely superb.

Hmm, I’m about 15 hours in (near end of chapter 2), and haven’t had to do any yet. In part that’s because I’ve taken my time and made sure to keep up with doing random encounters so I’ve been ok, but I am a bit wary! Have had a few ‘hard’ battles, certainly took more strategy than the average final fantasy which is great as usually they are cakewalks/simplistic for the first 20 hours or so.

Wave Racer, Pilotwings, Goldeneye. That'll do :-) On NSO? Wave Race is inevitable at some point, but the other two are unlikely unfortunately (Pilotwings 64 has never been rereleased even on VC as far as I know).
