Do I have to buy a game twice if I have two Nintendo Switches?

Yes, for simultaneous play on two separate consoles, you generally need two copies (physical or digital) because Nintendo's system links digital licenses to one primary account/console, though a single physical cartridge can be swapped, and new "GameShare" features (for Switch 2) allow limited sharing, but still usually one person at a time per physical copy unless it's a special game. For digital games, you can use one account as primary on the main console and set the other as a secondary (or use a family plan), but simultaneous play of the same title often requires two purchases unless a specific game supports local wireless play with one copy.

Can Nintendo Switch family members share games?

You can share digital games on a Nintendo Switch by setting one console as the "primary" for your account and linking a second console, allowing others to play your games on the primary console while you play different ones, or by "lending" games to family group members for up to 14 days, requiring both consoles to be near each other and online for setup. Physical game cards are easily shared by just inserting the card into another Switch, though DLC needs specific setup, and save data often uses Nintendo Switch Online or local transfer.
