Question: how many gold points do you need to buy a game?
Answer: Switch, 3DS and Wii U games from the digital eShop net you 5 percent of your purchase in Gold Points, while physical Switch games grant only 1 percent. For example: If you buy a new $60 Switch game in the eShop, you'll get 300 Gold Points. If you buy that same game at your local Best Buy, you'll get 60 Gold Points.
