My girlfriend bought us both switch lites recently and to save us both buying the same game I'm wondering if their is anything similar to game pass on Nintendo? Google is coming up with different things... Is it possible to link two accounts where only one of them has the digital came, but both people can play at the same time?

Cheers
 
Yes, you can do this but you will both need to sign up (and pay) for Nintendo online accounts if you want to play together or have both consoles online at the same time.

Once you've done that then pick one console to be your primary for your account (you can play games on this even when offline) and the other will be your secondary which will need you to be online. Your missus can use her account on your primary to play online.

Thanks for the info guys. I'm a bit confused because on that Reddit link above, it says if the secondary switch is playing a game and the primary switch loads a game up, the secondary switch will be kicked from the game
