Can you buy GoldenEye 007 on Nintendo Switch?
GoldenEye 007 is not available on the Nintendo eShop and cannot be purchased individually for play. The only way to access GoldenEye 007 on Switch is to purchase a membership for Nintendo Switch Online. Here’s how to do this and find the game to play on Nintendo Switch.

- Choose the Nintendo Switch Online option in the eShop menu.
- Click the “View/Change Membership” button.
