How to use crypto in the Nintendo eShop and Save More

Nintendo will have many big games released in the coming months, but Nintendo is still not accepting crypto as payment for their products. However, what if we told you there are still ways for you to shop in the eShop with cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum? This article will discuss how you can buy anything from the Nintendo eShop with your favorite cryptocurrency through Piggy Cards (Sign up now to get $100 credits!), but first, let’s quickly talk about why Nintendo does not accept crypto.

Crypto adoption in the retail space is going to be a long process. Even though people are ready and willing to use crypto daily shopping, many factors prevent this. One is integrating blockchain/web3 technology into these existing corporations/retailers. Blockchain technology is still very new and will take lots of time and resources for companies to integrate it into their businesses. However, one of the main factors is the legal aspect of cryptocurrency. Right now, crypto is in a gray area regarding legal regulation, which is why companies are hesitant to adopt it into their business models.

Regardless, you can still buy anything from the eShop with your favorite cryptocurrency with the help of Piggy Cards and save while doing it. Here is a simple two-step guide to shopping the Nintendo eShop with crypto:
