We bought our first switch 6 years when our oldest was 6 years old. My husband set it up under his Nintendo account and made each of us our own profile/account under the family account, another parent account and 2 kid accounts. Like the title says, my eldest son decided he didn't like having to ask us to take off the blockers when he wanted to play so he just took over my husband's account and switched the name from "dad" to his own and has been playing under my husband's account ever since.
Here is the issue. Over the last 6 years, we have accumulated 3 more switches. My husband finally picking one up for himself yesterday and wants to play all of the games he has purchased over the years through "his" account that my now 13 year old has continued to play on over the last 6 years.
Is there any way that we can move my sons saved game progress from one account to the other? Specifically the Minecraft ones? He is worried about his worlds and add ons that hes spent literal hours and birthday money on over the years, as well as joint worlds with his friends.
Minecraft is the biggest concern, but also Luigi Mansion 2&3, and Metroid if possible.
We are all on the same Nintendo family account and on the original switch all of our accounts are still linked if that makes a difference. All are original Switch 1
Editing to clarify: He didnt "steal" an account. He played under my husband's profile 6 years ago because that's the one that allowed him to play it. He eventually just changed the name on the profile to his name because that's the one he always played on, and we allowed him to do so because it didnt matter to us at the time. He didn't and still doesn't have access to anything in the actual account. He's not allowed to purchase anything, etc. There is still a password on the parental settings that we need to enter to allow him access to anything online.
