Nintendo Switch Online: Freshen up your profile pic with the icon maker!

Looking to show off your style? Today we’re going to highlight one of the fashionable perks of having a paid Nintendo Switch Online membership*: the icon maker! If you haven’t tried it yet, here’s how it works.

Step 1: Head over to Nintendo Switch Online on the HOME Menu (it’s the red icon on the far left of the menu). Once you’re there, select the Missions & Rewards tab to see which elements and missions are available.

Step 2: Redeem your My Nintendo™ Platinum Points** to get icon elements (aka characters, backgrounds, and frames). If you’re running low on Platinum Points, complete some of the missions that are currently available.

Step 3: Put those elements together to make your own profile icon. All your icons and icon elements can be accessed by going to the Icon Collection at the top right of the page.

Step 4: Bask in your personalized masterpiece. We hope you have fun!
