Windows 10: Nintendo switch to pc problems for Minecraft

I've linked my son's Nintendo switch Minecraft acc to my email and I am confused why it doesn't allow him to open bedrock edition on pc. If I need to purchase a new account then I can but I'm not willing to if there is a way since he recently got a computer and he thinks he should move on from his switch to pc. Thanks to anyone that helps

Minecraft on nintendo switch

Hi MC Gamer666,

Since you've registered on Minecraft Microsoft edition, you can only play this game on our server only (Xbox account).

Nintendo has a different server from us. They have a separate client or server. In order to play
Minecraft in Nintendo Switch, you need to register an account on their platform. To register, go to their official website and create an account. Once done, use this account to log in to
Minecraft in your Nintendo Switch.

If you would like me to provide additional advice, simply respond to this thread. I will get notified and I’ll reply to you as soon as I can.

Nintendo switch and minecraft

When playing Minecraft on Nintendo Lite and switch it says to log in to Microsoft account from another device.

I do this and it says successfully logged in, however when going back to the Nintendo it will still say sign in and we can not go any further?

Could you advise?

Also on Microsoft account you can add devices such as Xbox, can you not add Nintendo??
