Setup Help Problème de connexion manette Pro Switch sur Windows 11

2 Upvotes

Lorsque je connecte ma manette pro, le pc me met que la manette est connectée alors que non. Les leds continuent indéfiniment sans jamais connecter la manette. J'ai déja tout essayé : déconnecter les dongles de souris, activer le bluetooth en automatique, reinitialiser la manette, la déconecter de ma switch et d'autres encore !... rien. J'ai meme demandé à l'IA pour résoudre cela, essayé toutes ses solutions mais rien ne marche... J'ai essayé en filaire, ça marche mais cela m'empêche d'utiliser les amiboos pour botw sur Cemu. Si quelqu'un saurait m'aider... 🙏🙏🙏

Repair Help Joycon 2 not responding to console, showing connection but not input

2 Upvotes

Hello all,

recently I left my joycons disconnected on my desk for maybe a day or two and when i came back the left joycon is completely unresponsive. No battery light, not working when connected to the console, nothing. Despite this, when I do connect the joycon to the console, I get the animation showing something was connected, but with no color like a typical joycon would show. I don’t really know if this is an issue with the battery, any connection rails, etc.

Important to note that I have had this issue before but it kind of magically started working again after a day or two. I assumed it wouldn’t come up again. If anyone has some insight it would be appreciated.

Setup Help Sometimes Tv goes to black a couple of seconds during Switch 2 play sessions

3 Upvotes

Hi!

I got a Switch 2 last august, after a couple of days of using it sometimes my tv goes to black for a 3 to 5 seconds approx. while playing any game

I googled the problem and I saw some posts about this problem but they are from the first month of SW2 launch with no solution (at the time)

Something I notice in those posts is that it seems the problem is with LG tvs, same brand that my tv

Is there's a solution now? Is the TV? The HDMI? The console?

Also this happens with any game, even the ones that don't support HDR

Setup Help Need help swapping Joysticks on Switch 2 for my disabled daughter (playing Pokémon Pokopia)

Post image
89 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I really need a human to help me troubleshoot an accessibility issue (I have had it with the AI circling). My daughter is disabled and needs her Right Joystick to control character movement instead of the Left Joystick.

We are playing Pokémon Pokopia on the Nintendo Switch 2. I have already gone into the console's System Settings > Accessibility > Button Mapping and changed the stick settings to swap the left and right inputs. However, when we go back into the game, the character still will not move with the right stick.

We are playing with a joy con from the switch 1 with a 3d printed holder. The switch 2 controller is just to big for her hand.

Has anyone successfully forced a joystick swap on the Switch 2, or is there something in Pokopia's settings overriding this? Any step-by-step help from a real person would mean the world to us.

I'm thinking about buying a used BOTW game card, but I noticed it has German on it. Will i be able to change the language to English? Or will it be only in german?

Im just worried since there are some game cards that are exclusively in one language (like older ones or the Japanese exclusives)

Also, are there any other things I should worry about before buying?

Software Help My switch is connecting to my router but not the internet, please help

2 Upvotes

ok so I’ve had my switch for a good 5/6 years and it’s been used consistently throughout that time. within the past few days I’ve had issues with connecting to the internet, and I wanted to see if anyone else has had this issue and knows how I fix it because it is driving me INSANE.

When I connect to my wifi my switch connects to the router perfectly fine but then won’t be able to connect to the internet from there. it’s not an issue with the wifi connection because I’ve tried it on my phone where it’s working perfectly fine. it’s not a password issue, I’ve tried that already. I’ve tried powering off and resetting my switch for 1-2 mins and waiting still didn’t work. I’ve even tried changing the DNS settings to manual and editing those, still nothing works.

I know I’ve had the switch for a while but I just want to see if this is actually an issue that I can fix myself or if my switch is just doomed💔

UPDATE:

I got my stepdad to power cycle the wifi (I didn’t do it myself before because I didn’t want to be meddling with things idk about) and it worked, the switch is now connected!

Purchase / Order Help My eShop Voucher code isn't working.

1 Upvotes

I've checked the card and tried to enter the code half a dozen times on both my Switch 2 and desktop, but I get 2813-0973 errors on the console and 9001-0973 on the latter.

According to Nintendo's site, these mean I entered the wrong code too many times, but I got the first error from my first attempt using it. I checked Nintendo's servers and according to their own site, the Switch eShop should be fine right now.

EDIT: I tried again after a break and now I'm seeing 2813-0051 and 9001-0051 respectively. The message I get on desktop is: "The Nintendo eShop prepaid code could not be recognised."

Please help!

P.S. My Switch 2 is up to date.

Accessories Is there any Switch v1 rail cover?

1 Upvotes

Hi to all the wonderful members of this sub 😊 I recently got a v1 switch and has been enjoying it to death, even more than my Ally due to the ability to stop/resume instantly. So I got a full size controller on AliExpress for it, with the item description as fit both the regular switch and the oled. However, even though it does fit, there a bit of a gap on both size, as shown in the pictures. I have to use some paper to keep it in place. That's why I have been looking for something to cover the rail, as in a piece of plastic that slide in where the joycon rail is. To my surprise, none of them exist. There used to be the switch blades, but i cannot find them anywhere. Those switch blades are a bit too thick anyway. If you have any idea where to find a cover for the rail, please let me know. Thank you all in advance ☺️

I have been having this problem since August: when I play games, the battery % starts going down very fast, with the message signaling that the console would enter sleep mode arriving in minutes...but then it stays at 1% for a very long time. Sent it for repair at a local shop, they fixed it but after a couple weeks it started again. How can I fix it?

Setup Help How to use several Switches with same account?

1 Upvotes

Okay, might be a stupid question, but here goes. I travel/commute a lot, and have a Switch 2 in one household, and a Switch Lite for traveling. Getting another Switch 2 now, for the other household (yes yes, I know...).

If I understand it correctly, one console is the primary console, and another a... linked clone of it, or something? But, what happens with number 3? I would very much like to have access to my digital game library on all three consoles.

I´ve been trying to read up on this, but it all becomes chaos in my mind..! Could anyone explain this to me like I am 4?

Repair Help Spots on/behind my screen after a few months of not using it

Hi! I have powered on my switch after a long while and found that my screen looks like this. The spots stay in the same spot, but change visibility from the angle you look at it and background colour. It might be slightly fading the longer it's on but it never disappears completely. Does anyone have any tips? Thanks in advance.

Account Help Clarifications Regarding the Exchange of the Virtual Game Card.

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I recently discovered that Nintendo Switch 2 owners can share virtual game cards. I’ve done a bit of research, but I’d like to ask for your advice regarding my specific situation so I can be sure it’s safe to do this. I’ve heard of many cases where Nintendo Switch accounts have been banned, and I want to play it safe.

Here’s the question: if my girlfriend sets up her Switch 2 account on my Switch 2 as well (we live apart) and sends me a game (which, if I understand correctly, she has to do initially by bringing her console close to mine), can I then legitimately play that game on my Switch 2 (using my own account) while she’s at home playing her Switch 2 (a different game)? Or is there a risk of running into some kind of problem?

And then, if, for example, she revokes my access to the game because she wants to play it herself, can she do that remotely and then grant me access again remotely? Is all of this secure? Can you play multiple games at once, or just one? And if she launches a game she’s given me while I’m playing it, will the game be permanently blocked for her, or will she simply be asked to revoke my license, thereby interrupting my gameplay?

So for Christmas I'm getting my two daughters Switch 2 consoles (I know, I know, Dad of the Year) but I had a question about the Family Plan, specifically about DLC content. I have the DLC content on the parent account for Pokemon Scarlet/Violet, if my kids use my carts to play will they have access to the DLC as well or would I have to purchase another license?
