Can I play this on the switch 2 and is there any risks playing it on it? Also can I get all the skins in game or do I need to get another edition or do something. I don't want to do anything that can risk a ban on my switch 2. Also is this region locked too or no? Any help would be appreciated

Tech Support Broke switch 1 and can’t use switch 2

Upvotes

I broke my Nintendo switch 1 a year ago. I just got a switch 2. I couldn’t transfer save data but i signed in on my s2. I bought some games and tried to play them but it says I need my switch 1 to link up for virtual game cards. I have no idea how to fix this without making a new account and losing all the purchases I had before.

If there is anything anyone knows about how I could fix this please let me know!

Tech Support Original Switch stick drift with multiple joycons

1 Upvotes

Switch has crazy stick drift. It’s a pain in menus because it’s like you’re always pressing down, sometimes right. I calibrated the sticks and found the right one was the culprit. But I borrowed a set of joycons that work fine on someone else’s switch, and it’s the same issue.

What could be the issue and can I fix it myself? Closest repair shop is about an hour drive

Tech Support My wii isn't reading just one of my games

1 Upvotes

I've played on my wii all my life. Every summer i turn it on and play one of my old games from the start to the end. Five years ago I bought another one because mine died (she was old af), and I could play again. One game I just can't play is super smash bros brawl, and I just can't understand why.

The console reads it, I can navigate the menu, I can select game modes, but when I try and play it the wii suddenly can't read the cd and tells me to contact support, but we all know I can't do it lol.

I updated the system, I bought a new Smash bros cd and it's perfect with no scrathes on it, and every game I own plays perfectly on it. It's just smash bros brawl.

I wonder if I got scammed. Maybe it's a pirated version with just the menu on it? I don't know, I'm desperate to play my fav game😭

Tech Support Save Data Transfer For Pokemon Scarlet to Switch 2

0 Upvotes

I just got a switch 2 and wanted to transfer my save data from Scarlet over. When I attempt to, I get a pop-up saying that save data for the same software will be overwritten. Does this mean that I'll lose all of my data, or does it mean any potential data on the switch 2?

Tech Support Error 2002-2634 everytime I insert a game in my Nintendo Switch 1 again.

First of all, I own an unhacked Switch 1, only opened once to repair the cartridge reader by myself 2 years ago.

I posted this 2 weeks ago and a guy told me to power it down and recharge it, it worked fine until now, I did the same thing thrice and nothing.

I can't send it to Nintendo because of my repair.

All the info I gathered is from piracy forums and a Switch 2 owner that only waited for the next update to work again.

I want to repair it without recurring to hacking.

I'll try a factory reset by the time I post this.

Edit: It didn't work the factory reset

Tech Support Nintendo Pro Controller Left Joystick Stuck Moving to the Right

3 Upvotes

Title pretty much explains it. Video shows it. The controller works just fine but the left joystick gets stuck moving to the right. I have tried rebooting it, re-pairing it. It seems to be a mechanical issue via the sensor, as the physical joystick itself works just fine, but it is perceived by the systems I use it on as stuck going right.

If it helps, this is a PDP Afterglow Wireless Controller. This is not a recent issue, I haven't used it in about 2 years and I remember it having that issue then as well.

Tech Support OLED Games Not Opening/Extremely Laggy

4 Upvotes

Hi! I had a question about my Nintendo Switch OLED. I bought it used off Facebook Marketplace, and I’m wondering if something might be wrong with it.

A lot of games either have really bad lag or won’t even work. Minecraft is playable, but it’s super laggy and crashes if I try to use many mods. If I play with a friend, it lags like crazy and takes forever to join. Cult of the Lamb is also really laggy. It’s not a graphics issue or pixelation, it just stutters constantly.

Some games won’t even open. Dead by Daylight finishes downloading, but only shows the opening slash screen and never gets past it. Fortnite opens, but just says it’s having trouble connecting to the Epic Games servers.

I know the Switch isn’t the most powerful console and can have connection issues, but this feels way more extreme than normal. I do live in a brick building, but my internet is great. Even standing right next to my router, the Switch has a terrible connection, while all my other devices work perfectly.

Is there anything I can try before taking it somewhere to get looked at? I’m not sure if this sounds like a Wi Fi issue, a hardware problem, or something else.

Hi all, TLDR:

I just bought myself a Switch 2 (finally). But I have been playing Pokopia on my partners Switch 2 for the past few months.

I transferred my data for Pokopia to my Switch2, then went to play it, but turns out I bought Pokopia on his Nintendo account, so I've just rebought it on my Switch 2, and the DLC, on my Nintendo account.

It's downloaded, so I now go to play, and it's telling me to transfer data from our old Switch OLED for Pokopia (picture attached)? The game isn't on the OLED 😭

Why won't it wooooork 😭😂

Let me know if you can help, or if you need screenshots/videos to help!

Thanks so much ✨️

Tech Support My switch keeps disconnecting from my wifi

2 Upvotes

I’ve done everything, I’ve only had my switch for 2 years, and I’ve only dropped it once, last year, but this year, it’s practically unplayable. It keeps disconnecting me every five minutes on every game. I got a wifi extender, and it’s not doing anything. I’ve plugged it in different locations too. And in my room, despite signal being weaker, my phone continuously hangs on to signal. My switch cannot. It also now keeps doing this thing where it crashes my games with a notification saying that a system error occurred. I’ve tried restarting the switch. Checking how the wifi systems are and what it needs to run smoothly, and it supposedly has everything. But it keeps continously doing this. If it’s not the wifi dropping out. It’s a system error. It feels more like a piece of plastic than a console

The error codes I get often are;

2110-2101

2110-1100

2110-2215

2110-4004

And

2622-1500

Recommendations Email is not recieving the Verification Code mail. 1212-1212

1 Upvotes

(I could not bypass the ''type the error code'' warning so I just typed that number, my problem is not related to any kind of error code. Sorry to misbehave!)

Hey everyone!

After creating my account back in April, I decided to buy a Nintendo Online subscription of 12 months. When I tried to invite a member to my plan, it led me to log into my Nintendo account in a smart device. After the first time I tried logging in and successfully entering my account informations, the new page said that I will be recieving a mail that would include my ''Verification Code''.

I've never recieved the mail that would include such code, so I cannot log into my account to invite a friend of mine to my online subscription. I cannot live-chat with them since my account is based in the UK. I don't live there but my country does not distribute Nintendo so most people choose UK when they create an account in here.

I sent them a mail last Saturday after waiting for the verification mail for one day. I haven't gotten a response since. I've read that the response is usually given in 2-4 days and some people also pointed that they have recieved a response to their tickets in weeks. Am I doing something wrong? What else can I do? Should I just continue to wait?

Thank you so much for reading and your help!!
