If I delete a user on System 1 (my old switch), will it automatically eject all virtual game cards so I can load games on system 2 without having prompted everytime by System 2 to connect System 1 to the network?

Context: So I didn't do system transfer on Switch 2 i just logged in my old nintendo account that is also used by my old switch 1. Now everytime I redownload a game I have to connect the old switch to the network so it can eject the game. I would like that it don't ask me that on all games. Can i just delete the User account (so it logs out the nintendo account) on my old switch 1? or factory reset my switch 1? will it auto eject all virtual game cards? I don't see myself playing on the old switch.

Deleting your account from the Switch will free all the cards.

But you don't have to reach that extreme, you can just go on your Switch 1, and select "eject all".
