Nintendo Switch Bedrock Account Name

Hello!

Hope you are well. I'll be glad to assist you.

I'm sorry you're experiencing these issues.

To play Minecraft on Nintendo, you must have a Microsoft/Xbox account associated with Nintendo. This is the account whose Gamertag you must change. You can do this from the following link:

Best regards.
