Nintendo Switch Parental Controls Master Key

This tool generates the 'master key' (unlock code) for 3DS, Wii U and Switch parental controls. Usually, one would have to contact Nintendo for this and explain the case, or have it emailed to the account holder on file. The main advantage of this tool is that it supports the current algorithm (10 character inquiry number).
Nintendo Switch Parental Controls DON’T WORK! It took them to a website that literally generates the Master Key for the switch by typing the inquiry number into the site. The exact steps.

Lesson 1: Get started with the free mobile app

You can set gaming restrictions for the family right from your smart device with the free Nintendo Switch Parental Controls mobile app. While some parental controls are available on the system itself, this free app gives you even more options.

Internet access and compatible smart phone required. Data charges may apply. Nintendo Account age 18+ required to set parental controls.

Lesson 2: Keep an eye on play time

You can set limits on how long or how late the Nintendo Switch system can be used each day. When the time limit has been reached, an alarm notification will pop up on the Nintendo Switch screen.

The app will also tell you if the Nintendo Switch console stays on past this time limit. If needed, you can always set the system to automatically interrupt when the time’s up.

Parents can disable play time alarms and game suspension features temporarily or for a full day using their PIN. For more details about how to use Nintendo Switch Parental Controls, visit support.

Lesson 1: Content & Privacy Restrictions

With Parental Controls and Content & Privacy Restrictions included on smart devices, you can block or limit specific apps and features on the device your child is using. The on-device Parental Controls and Content & Privacy Restrictions will not change the games you see in the app stores, including games you have purchased or recommended games.
