Error Code: 2318-0540
The information in this article can help if you cannot start a local wireless game and receive the error code 2318-0540.
Complete these steps
- Verify that a player on each console owns a copy of the game.
Important: This error can appear if you are trying to play a multiplayer game over local wireless communication when you have only one copy of the game. For example, if the same Nintendo Account has been used to download a game on two different consoles, it is not possible to play that game over local wireless between those two consoles. If the game supports online play, you can match up online using two Nintendo Accounts with Nintendo Switch Online memberships. Alternately, you can purchase the game for each console you want to connect via local wireless.
