Pokémon Sword and Shield, do you have the wrong Expansion Pass? There may be a solution

Did you buy the wrong Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield Expansion Pass? So far Nintendo has always said that there was nothing it could do to fix it. Now, however, at least in the US it seems to have found the solution. That is the most obvious: contact the support service.

It seems strange, but so far Nintendo has always said that it can not do anything in case you buy the wrong version of the Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Expansion Pass Shield and be very careful when buying if you don't want to risk spending money on anything.

This is because, unlike what you might think, the Pokémon Sword Expansion Pass and the Pass Expanding Pokémon Shield are two different DLCs. They both contain expansions called Solitary Island of the Armor and The Snowy Lands of the Crown with very similar contents (this is the review review of the DLC of Pokémon Sword and Shield, the Solitary Island of the Armor) but formally on the Nintendo Switch eshop they are treated as very different content. For this reason, you can risk being mistaken.

And if for some reason before this mistake seemed unsolvable, now, through Twitter, the American division suggests that something can be done to solve the problem. What we are not aware of, we need to contact customer service and follow their instructions. At the moment we do not know if the European division will also apply the same policy, but the opposite would seem strange to us.

So, in case you have made such a mistake, we advise you to immediately write to the customer service of the big N to understand what is possible. Find all the contacts at this address.

Do you need such an intervention?
