Yesterday we reported that Nintendo Switch has had its day one update. Nintendo's eShop is now online, and you can now also add friends to your list. It turns out that those infamous friend codes are back.

Friend code is a series of 12 numbers, which are given to a friend who can then add you as their friend on his or her list. Aside from typing in a code, players can search friends locally, add them by using recently met list or by linking their old accounts to their new Nintendo Account ID.

If this sounds a bit confusing, you can watch a youtube video made by a user named Arekkz here.
