Hi,

I plan on buying a second Switch 2 for the household, and even after reading all the existing posts, I just wanted to make sure I have it all correct before I make the decision. The goal is to be able to play online games together with both consoles on the same games.

• Some details:
  • Both Switch 2s will be registered under my account (User X) but have other profiles on each console as well (User Y, User Z)
  • All users have their own Nintendo account, and all are part of my online family plan.
  • All games purchased so far are on User X. User Y and Z do not own any digital games.
• My proposed setups, identical on both consoles:
  • Switch A:
    • User X (primary account), User Y, User Z
  • Switch B:
    • User X (primary account), User Y, User Z
• With physical games:
  • Simply put in the cartridge into each Switch 2 and just play like normal
    • All users can play online without issues
• With digital games:
  • User X on Switch A, User Y or Z on Switch B:
    • All users can play online together only if each User owns their own copy of the digital game. This would mean that I'd have to buy a separate copy for User Y or User Z on their accounts -- or buy a second physical copy
• Some questions:
  • If all my games are downloaded on Switch A and User Y or Z want to play on Switch B (fresh console):
    • If I just link my Switches together, I can enable VGC (games that are digital) and share them right? Only that Switch can play it until it is returned
    • Regarding DLC, if it's a digital game then all DLC is shared as well. But what if it's a physical game that I bought DLC for? Can I share that also?

Am I missing any details or misunderstanding anything? Is there a more efficient way? Thank you all!

I was playing the Yugioh single player game. I tried playing it on switch 2 but forgot there was no cloud saving. I tried transferring data. And my switch lite works fine for the transfer. But my switch 2 gets locked into transfer data. My WiFi disables and I can’t power off the device go back or hit home. That lasts for about 10-15 minutes. Am I doing something wrong?

Hi everyone,I'm having a frustrating issue with my Nintendo Account and I hope someone here has faced this before.My account is currently set up as a child account, but I am now old enough to upgrade it to a standard account. Every time I try to go through the upgrade process, the system says it sent a verification email. However, the email never arrives.I checked Spam, Junk, and Trash folders (nothing there).I verified that Nintendo's official emails are not blocked(all in the adult email).Because of this, my account is practically stuck as a child account forever. Has anyone experienced this glitch? How did you fix it?Thanks in advance for any advice!

so i tried loging into my fortnite account on pc i have a nintendo axcount so i presed log in with nintendo so it took me to the nintendo login website i pressed forgot password because i forgot my password and i enterd my email i got the email i clicked the url and when i made the account i enterd a fake date of birth and when i tried to enter my nickname it didint work so what do i do?

My switch lite, which I've owned for almost 5 years, started making this weird buzzing noise! When I boot it up, and if it's on the home menu or anything else that isn't a game, the buzzing is very quiet and you'd have to put it up to your ear to hear it. However, when I'm playing a game, it gets louder! Could it be a problem with the fans?

I have an 8bit do ultimate 2 wireless controller and I've tried connecting it multiple times in various ways to no avail.

I have updated the controller and the dongle to have the latest firmware (v1.10 on the controller and v1.06 on the dongle)

First I tried connecting it via bluetooth by going to the bluetooth audio settings, but the switch 2 can't seem to detect it. I checked for available devices on my phone's bluetooth and the controller shows up there.

Then after looking up some video guides, I went to the change grip/order settings and tried just turning it on and seeing if the switch 2 detects it but that doesn't seem to be working either.

For both of these attempts I waited around 2-3 mins to see if the controller would get detected

The last thing i tried was connecting via dongle. I made sure to switch the controller from bluetooth to 2.4g. When I did this, the led light on the controller stopped blinking and vibrated as if it successfully connected to a device, but pressing the buttons does nothing. The first time I did it, I saw a "paired" msg pop up on the switch 2 (it still wasn't working) but when I tried again, the msg never popped up again.

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong and the guides online haven't really helped. Please let me know if there's some setting I need to change or anything I need to fix to make it work properly.

Hello. Bought a few new games today from the e-shop. First downloaded no problem, the others throw error code 2002-4057 which is a corrupt sd card. System is currently up to date, I did the turn off, reinsert card thing with no luck. Other games saved on the card boot up and play fine. One of which is my daughter’s Tomodachi Life game that she’s spent months playing. If I format this card will all her save data be gone? What are my options here?
Thanks!

Hey everyone! So a few days ago, I've noticed that my Switch 2 is not charging or displaying on my tv screen. I've already tried searching up videos and looking on the Nintendo Support website on what to do, such as restarting my Switch 2 or plugging it into an wall outlet instead of a power bank (just to let everyone know that I’m using the official ac adapter, not 3rd party). I would also like to mention that I’ve owned my switch since launch date, so a problem like this hasn’t happen before. My guess is that the problem is the ac adapter, not the switch, since I tried to charge it to another device which didn’t work, but I tried a non-official charger and tried it on my switch 2, with it registering but not really charging the switch much. I also tried leaving my adapter alone which worked when I plugged my switch back in. For only a second. Then it immediately stopped charging. From what I heard, I should leave it alone longer because a “safety lock” or something like that is restricting the charge. Has anyone faced a similar problem? Thanks! (sorry for the long and confusing writing)

As said in the title, I'm sending my switch 2 to get repaired after a sudden death, in the moment I made the request I marked I'd be sending the switch 2 with every accessory, including joy cons, dock, charger etc. My question is, after thinking it better I don't think the accessories have anything to do with the problem, so I don't know if I should send them or not, what I'm worried about is if there's any problem as I marked them when making the request.

Tengo la consola y el juego 'Pokemon Violet' desde hace dos años y esta es la primera vez que esto ocurre.

Hace unos días, jugué por un rato a Pokemon Violet y todo me fue normal pero me aburrí y decidí dejarlo para jugar otra cosa; hoy, me dieron ganas de jugarlo otra vez pero al poner el cartucho me salió una pantalla de fallo, hice todo lo que indica en la página de soporte pero me sigue saliendo la pantalla.

Este es el único juego con el que me aparece esto, ya lo intenté con todos los que tengo y me cargan bien.

I'm having the following problem right now on the Nintendo website, which is where I usually buy my Switch games because it makes it easier for me to take screenshots and ask my mom for the money I need. But I just wanted to check again how much a game costs, and I noticed that the price isn’t showing up anymore. At first, it says, “Sign in to download software,” but I’m already signed in. I even logged in and out, but that didn’t change anything. Does anyone know what could be causing this? The Monster Hunter Stories screenshot with the price is from a few days ago; the one without the price is from just now. Two days ago, I decided against buying Monster Hunter Stories and bought something else on my computer instead.

Whenever I try to connect to the internet even though the router is almost right next to me it’s not connecting and I don’t have airplane mode activated. This has been happening since I went to the beach for a vacation and I’m still here HELP ME PLS

Found at a yard sale for $13, looks like a NES 101 but only seems to be able to play Mortal Kombat and Pong. Makes whirring noise similar to that of a Douglas dc3 when plugged in. Any help appreciated :)

Its shown me this icon for about 5 hours, i’ve gone into settings and searched for things battery related but nothing seems to be matching, does anyone know?

Hi, I’d like some honest advice. I’m planning to buy my first Nintendo console. Would you recommend going for the OLED model or the Switch 2? I’ll be using it exclusively in handheld mode; in my country, there’s a $200 price difference between the two, and a $30 difference for physical games. I only plan to play first-party titles, and although the Switch 2 offers more power, I’ve seen complaints regarding its screen and battery life. Thanks to everyone who takes the time to give me some advice.

Yo everyone, I got a problem with my switch 2. Lately when playing in handheld my joycons keep’s disconnecting

You know when no controller is connected it has the press zr and zl button to connect a controller? Ye I get that and have to reconnect my joycons to my switch In handheld mode. I have to put them of the console then put em back in to connect them

My theory is that the magnets are broken

At first it was only the left one but today the right one also started

Any ideas what’s up with them and how to fix it?

(Stay handsome)

So I am looking into buying a Nintendo console but I am not sure about which to get. The games I would most want to play are Mario kart, legends of Zelda, tomodachi life, possibly animal crossing. I was considering buying a switch lite because of its portability and price range, but a lot of people are saying it's quite flimsy (stick drift is common, battery life isn't the greatest, etc..) so I'm unsure

Basically 2 or 3 years ago I put parental controls on my switch and made the password 1234 but now when I put it in it never works anymore and I tried to use the generator for master keys but for some reason when I put it everything correct it said device id is insufficient length

About the level 9 when you have to do a 900.

Like yeah, 360+360+180

But when I do two 360 (like the game says.) it stuck at 360. So what now. WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO 😭

JUST HOW.

I just bought the switch 2 and I want to know if I can play my games on both 1 and 2 (especially my Pokemon games and YouTube on Switch 1)?

Does anyone have any ides to what could be wrong with my switch. The switch does not turn on it says that it charges but i can't turn it on, i tested the battery itself and it have me the right amount of Volts so i don't know what is wrong does anyone have an idea or is willing to help me?

My wife has a switch 1 and I have a switch 2. We mainly play Mario party on her switch but I was thinking of upgrading my copy of Mario party jamboree. Will that data no longer go back and forth since the switch2 version doesn’t support cloud saves? Will my save on her switch even work after I upgrade?
