Nintendo eShop not available in your country

1. Use the Nintendo Switch to access the settings.
2. Select System > Select Region
3. Put your region in America
4. Nintendo Online Store
5. When asked to enter the region, choose the United States.
6. Go to Location settings and touch Edit.
7. Define the US postal code (e.g. 10026).

If you live in the United States and move to a new country where Nintendo eShop is not available, the steps above will help you.

And you can pay for the new games with your PayPal account or your credit card if it is issued in the United States. Otherwise you can only pay with prepaid cards.

However, if this solution does not solve the problem, go to the next step.

1. Subscribe to a premium VPN subscription plan (we recommend PIA).
2. Download and install PIA on a Windows PC
3. Start PIA and connect to the server in the US.
4. Share your VPN connection
5. Connect your Nintendo to a VPN
6. Try the Nintendo eshop now

The VPN tool redirects your network traffic to another server, making it look like you are connecting from a different location.

If Nintendo eShop takes your IP address into account, you can make it look like you are connecting from the US simply by connecting to a US VPN server.

We advise you to have private access to the Internet, because we think it is the best VPN, in general. You can use it not only to unlock online game stores, but also for other types of restricted content.

PIA also offers an excellent solution to reduce pinging while playing. And you can configure it on all major operating systems and devices, including Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, Linux and even routers.

Since Nintendo does not have built-in VPN support, you can install a PIA client on Windows or Mac to use a VPN connection. You can also configure it at the router level.

Other PIA Functions :

• Protect up to 10 devices at a time
• Zero privacy policy
• 24/7 online support
• 30 day money back guarantee (no free trial)
• Payment by credit card, PayPal or crypto

Private Internet access

Have Nintendo eShop detect your new location by connecting to the US server provided by this reliable VPN service.

If the problem persists and you are unable to access Nintendo eShop in your area, try to create a new Nintendo account and set up a US location (you can use the zip code we provided in the first solution).

You can also try formatting your Nintendo device if it remembers your old information and you cannot clear the cache.

Completion

Summarized: If you are unable to access Nintendo eShop because it is not available in your area, you can change the country of the device on your Nintendo to a US country.

If the error persists, use a reliable VPN service such as Private Internet Access (buy it here) to hide your IP address and make it look like you are actually connecting from the US.

You can also create a new Nintendo account with the U.S. region and format your game console if it remembers your old information.
