Changing your Nintendo account password is essential for security, especially after purchasing an account.
How to change your password
- Go to accounts.nintendo.com and sign in.
- Click “Sign-in and security settings” in the left sidebar.
- Click “Edit” next to “Password”.
- Enter your current password, then enter your new password twice.
- Click “Save” to apply the change.
Tips
- Use a strong, unique password you don’t use elsewhere.
- After changing the password, you’ll be signed out of other sessions.
- If you don’t know the current password, use “Forgot password” on the login screen — a reset link will be sent to the account email.
- Enable two-step verification afterwards for maximum security.
