I brought The ghostbusters the video game remastered, for Nintendo Switch download code in 2019 so in 2024 will the download code run out now even with a factory reset on Nintendo switch console
Download codes for games on the Nintendo Switch typically do not expire, even if you perform a factory reset on your console. Once you redeem a download code, the game is linked to your Nintendo Account. As long as your account remains active and you have access to it, you should be able to re-download the game anytime from the Nintendo eShop, regardless of any resets or changes to your console.
However, it’s always a good idea to keep your account information and any proof of purchase safe, just in case you run into any issues. If you have any doubts, you may want to check the terms associated with the download code or contact Nintendo Support for specific questions related to your account or purchases.
Update (2024-11-10):
Download codes for games like "Ghostbusters: The Video Game Remastered" typically do not expire, meaning that as long as the game was redeemed on your Nintendo eShop account, you should still have access to it even if you perform a factory reset on your Nintendo Switch or create a new account.
However, if you do a factory reset and create a new Nintendo account without linking it to your original account, you won't have access to the games that were purchased or redeemed with your original account. The game is tied to the specific account that redeemed the download code, so you would need to use that same account to re-download the game.
If you are concerned about losing access, you should ensure that your account information is backed up and that you can access it after a factory reset. If you still have the download code and you haven’t redeemed it yet, then it can be redeemed on that account as long as it wasn’t previously used.
