If you\u2019re lucky and get chosen, you\u2019ll receive an email to the address that your Nintendo Account is registered under.\u00a0 Don\u2019t worry, you won\u2019t end up having to travel any further than you originally intended. You can enter for each experience individually, ensuring that you don\u2019t end up with tickets to the Los Angeles event and a need to frantically book plane tickets.\u00a0 If you have a Nintendo Account Family group, you can also register up to five members alongside yourself. If you win, then they\u2019ll win too as long as their Nintendo Account is linked to the Family group, allowing them to enter the event as your guests.\u00a0 Further details about what will actually be happening at these events will likely be revealed during the next Nintendo Direct event on April 2, along with additional details about the Switch 2 itself.","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/nintendo-switch-2.jpg?fit=1200%2C675","latest_revision":{"revision_id":996703,"modified_date_gmt":"2025-01-16T14:48:54"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/996677","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/906"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=996677"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/996677\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":996703,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/996677\/revisions\/996703"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/996631"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=996677"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=996677"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=996677"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=996677"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=996677"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=996677"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jbsgame.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=996677"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
