Nintendo Switch - one online account, two consoles?

[Deep Thought]

I've a Nintendo Switch Lite and have an online account with Nintendo and have bought several games, downloaded to the device.

We're buying a full size Nintendo Switch also for the house - will i be able to link that unit to that original account and download the games already purchased to the full size Switch also and thus play them on both?

TIA

Google says yes. You just have to make the new one your primary.
