Submission + - Nintendo Bans Switch 2 After Owner Installs Used Games On It
An anonymous reader writes: From LevelUp: "One Reddit user, who goes by dmanthey, found this out the hard way. According to his post, he was banned after playing four used Switch 1 games that he had purchased through Facebook Marketplace. He explained that he simply inserted the cartridges into his Switch 2 and waited while the console installed the required updates. However, when he turned it back on the next day, he was greeted by a message saying his access to Nintendo’s online services had been restricted because his system was now banned. ...
Fortunately for dmanthey, the story did not end there. He reached out to Nintendo’s customer service team, who asked him to find the Facebook listing and provide photos of the cartridges he had purchased. After a few conversations with support, he was able to prove his case and have the ban lifted, regaining access to his console’s full features."
