This is not what Nintendo claims on their website
Link to Nintendo's website.
So it looks like you need a Nintendo account (obviously), be at least 18yo, have purchased a Nintendo Switch Online membership (minimum 12 months), and have 50hrs total gameplay as of today. I don't know if that gameplay is 50hrs total or online only. It's first come first serve. ~~The title is misleading~~. The requirements are different in the UK.
This is what they claim in UK:

Oh so the wording is different in the UK. I'll have to edit my post.
Maybe the 50hrs is just to weed out scalpers attempting to make new accounts to buy multiple.
50hours of gameplay over the lifetime of a console is not that much. I have like 200 hours in BOTW alone.
Yeah curious about the 50 hours as well. I definitely don’t have 50 hours this year, or even in the last twelve months. Overall I for sure do.
Yeah I put in some hours with Echos of Wisdom but I don't play online much. Probably gonna change that by spectating Smash Bros when I'm supposed to be working.
Oh how is that I really wanted to buy it and never got around io the title.
It's OK. Mostly solving puzzles and collecting echoes. I like the art style but it feels like the Link's Awakening port so it feels like a port when it isn't.
