    How to Report Inappropriate or Offensive Content (Game Builder Garage)

    Notes

    • Games created by others can only be found and downloaded after entering a unique Game ID or Programmer ID, so we recommend only searching for games from creators you know and trust. There is no feature for browsing everyone’s uploaded creations.
    • Nintendo Switch Parental Controls can be set to restrict the ability to view and share user-generated content online.
    • If you have downloaded a game, it will be deleted from your saved games in Game Builder Garage after reporting.

    Players can report inappropriate games or game titles that have been uploaded in Game Builder Garage to Nintendo for review. Any content that violates Nintendo’s Code of Conduct will be deleted.
