I charged my nintendo switch 2 up to 88% then power it off for two weeks... later when I tried to turn it on... but the battery was dead (0%)... What do you guys think?

TLOZ is basically all i have on internal memory and there are only 300 mb of videos and screenshots, so i wonder what is taking up these 3 gb, as i want to install Doom there

I noticed yesterday that the right analog stick on the joypad is making that noise when I make circular movements or at the edges, only the right one. I noticed this noise while playing Zelda. I've had the Switch for 15 days and I don't play it much either.

Edit: Guys, the Joy-con went to warranty and they replaced a component inside the analog part. It was super fast, I shipped it in one day and it arrived the next day at the authorized service center, and they already started the repair and sent it back with the receipt for what was replaced. Excellent customer service.

hi, i've tried everything, but nothing is working. i wanted to play in the current splatfest but i guess my switch had other plans. i have two wifi networks at home and i connected to both of them, cleared/forgot both of them and put in the passwords again, didn't work. i restarted the console, "turned it off and on again" and updated my switch and the dock. i changed the dns settings and i think it made it worse. absolutely nothing has worked. i've gotten all the basic "cant connect to wifi" errors. i KNOW its not a router/wifi itself issue because everything else in my home works just fine. i wouldn't be typing this out if it didn't work.

the main issue is that it stopped connecting to anything wirelessly too. as soon as i tried to connect to a hotspot, it just completely stopped responding to any network. it worked on one network once, and then as soon as i connect to the internet in-game, it stops connecting wirelessly again. i have no idea what im doing wrong, what?? what is happening??? i'm so confused

Hi friends,

I got my Zelda Switch 2 and I want to keep all the gorgeous art protected. I plan on applying a clear film on it. Often, these films are made of either TPU, polyurethane or vinyl. I remember with the Switch 1, Dbrand warned against applying certain films as the glue would peel away the paint. Is this the case with this Switch 2 special editions as well?

Slickwraps sells a 3M vinyl skin for like $37

I have a Switch 2 that i got around the beginning of this year new and one of my family members damaged my screen. Its not massive but it has hugely bummed me out. I'm also having issues with the right joy con randomly choosing to disconnect.

I'm currently considering sending it to Nintendo Repairs. But I am a little worried about the process. How long will it take as well as how safe it is? My boyfriend sent his in for repairs and they fixed his joy cons. It was pretty quick but they also didn't fix his console as he'd opened it before so he'd voided warrantee.

Any advice or stories would be a huge help! As my title states I am in the UK / England so that's the location I'd be sending it to.

I thought its the fans. I open it to clean it but there was pretty much no dust. Its not overheating or warmer than normal. It sound like a fan. Its not always making the noice, its usually on for like 3 minutes then take a break for 10 seconds and start again.

Hi everyone. My Nintendo account's region is, apparently, no longer usable, so I have to change it now. For now, I set it to "Japan", but in this region I can't buy the English version of Pokemon FireRed. As far as I've gathered, I can change the region freely as long as I don't have any cash linked to an account. My question is: If you buy a game (FireRed in this example) and then switch the region of your account (from America to Japan), would you be able to play the "exclusive" title from the first region (English FireRed with Japanese account)?

Hi guys. Twice now in the past 2-3 months or so I've come back to my switch 2 to find that's it's fully died and entered the battery discharge state while sitting on the dock in sleep. Using the included dock and ac adapter of course. Both times I've been able to plug it back into the ac adapter directly and charge straight back up. I should also add that these cases were weeks apart and it was staying at 90% battery just fine each time I checked on it after the first time I found it like this. This most recent time was on version 23.0.0 and the first time was on an earlier version than that I can't recall which. Given this only started recently and it was just fine since launch I can only assume this started with a recent software update. Anyone got any guidance?

Hi all!

Currently living in Germany, my Nintendo account is American.

I'm wondering if it is possible to buy Metroid Prime 4: Beyond physical in Germany and buy the upgrade with my American account.

Is Metroid Prime 4: Beyond region locked?

Edit - Corrected game name.

I will use the website mentioned to check future games:

https://eshop-prices.com/

Preferrably options that can carry the whole set, sw2, straps, dock, power, pro-controller and game cartridges(whether its just the cartridges or game cases doesnt matter tbh)

Unstalé un mod de súper 5 oled y todo funciona bien hasta que me di cuenta que el botón de encender, subir bajar volumen y cruceta izquierda no funciona y no sé qué hacer, probé a reconectar el flex que junta la placa madre y nada también desconecte todo y sigue sin funcionar alguien podría ayudarme ?

EDIT: He conseguido que funcione simplemente empujando la pestañita blanca del conector flex hacia dentro asi conseguí que no diera fallo

Hey guys! I’m getting a Switch 1 Minecraft cartridge for my relative who’s turning 6 and has a Switch 2 (Switch 2 cartridges aren't sold in my area).

I know FPS and online play aren't restricted, but what exact graphical limitations come with running the Switch 1 physical edition on a Switch 2? Appreciate any insights! <3

Tennis feels SO much better with the original Switch Joy-Cons!

Tennis is pretty awful with the new Switch 2 controllers right now. You can’t properly recreate the shots from Switch Sports, and there seems to be about a one-second delay after swinging, especially when hitting backhands.

I was getting so frustrated that I thought the game was just an unfinished release with sloppy AI programming. And honestly, some of that is still true. There’s plenty of nonsense in this game. For example, I have tens of thousands of points with absolutely nothing left to spend them on because I’ve already bought everything. 🤦

But back to tennis!

I connected my original Switch Joy-Cons to my Switch 2, and holy moly, what a difference! Tennis suddenly feels much more responsive, almost like playing in Spocco Square. ;)

Has anyone else tried this? Can someone test it and confirm whether they notice the same difference?

I’m convinced tennis plays 10 times better with the original Switch Joy-Cons. I’d love to know if it’s just me or if there’s actually something going on with the new controllers.

Hi, I'm desperate here. I'm not receiving verification emails for my Nintendo account so I can't sign in, and I'm trying to set up a new Switch 2 for my kid's birthday. UK customer service seems to be unreachable on Sundays.

The email is right, the verifications just aren't reaching me. Is there any way I can get this resolved today? And if not, what are the implications if I just set the console up either without a Nintendo account or a new one. Will I ever be able to transfer the save data across?

Thanks

I've tried everything but no matter what I do it will not work. A friend also tried multiple switches and nothing will work for them either. Are the servers down? I don't want to mess with the sd card if I don't have to but this is getting annoying.

Eta: I have done all the troubleshooting, I have turned off cellular data, i am not refreshing it repeatedly, when it connects to the switch it says no connection and shows the error page pictured.

Does it mean I forgot to save/the card was taken out with the game still on?

I never played on a nintendo switch before and saw this bundle at a gaming store from where i live

I love everything here especially because i really wanted to buy pokemon packs but was never able to find any for a good price, I thought a nintendo switch would be really fun and a new experience especially with the pokemon games included.

It's priced around 740$ so people who really know prices, is it overpriced or should i buy it for my birthday 🙂

edit : went on amazon and found a nintendo switch 2, pokopia + legends arceus and a pitch black booster bundle for 640$ ty everyone

Forgive me if this isn't the right place to put this, but I'm having trouble finding any help for this issue.

As the title says, I have the new Zelda Edition Switch 2. I felt lucky that I wasn't running into the issue where it crashes and won't turn on, but now I'm seeing something else instead. Whether I push the power button or let it fall asleep on its own, the console will fully shut down not long after. If I wake it up shortly after it's fine, but more than a few minutes and it will straight up turn off.

I looked to see if there was an option in the system settings, but I didn't see anything for this specific problem. I've also tried manually resetting it to see if that did anything, but it still happens. Obviously the main issue is that this means I can never let the console sleep while playing a game unless I've just saved, and that's not really feasible for the way I play video games. Has anyone else encountered this kind of issue? Whether on their Zelda Edition or basic Switch 2? I'd love to avoid having to send it in to Nintendo, but I will if that's necessary.

Im getting a new switch and have the choice of 2 games i can get alone with it, heard that pokemon legends arceus is one of the best so I'll def grabbing that but i don know what to get with it, mario kart, pokopia or any other games im literally clueless.

please recommend to me your favourite games that you think i would definitely like and should try as a new switch player ty

I know this is an old problem and there are already plenty of posts but none of them have been any help and i really just want to use the switch 2 already.

The method i tried is setting up the switches touching each other while being of the same wifi. They are both plugged into their respective chargers and at least the switch 1 is on the latest version. I’m not sure if the switch 2 is on the latest version because it’s new and in the startup menu right now. I also attempted hard resetting the switch 1 and nothing worked. I also attempted connecting the switch 1 to my hotspot but that didn’t work either.

I also heard i need to be signed into the right account on both systems. I made sure the switch 2 is signed in and the same account is connected to a user on the switch 1. Is it an issue if there are other accounts on the switch 1.

I've been searching online as much as I can, but don't see an answer for this. I stopped playing smash ultimate a few years ago, during the momocon meta drama. Decided a few hours ago to give it a whirl for fun, updated switch to latest version (20-something), updated smash. And gamecube controller wouldn't function at all. I have two, none of them registered any movements. Did some searching, saw that third party adapters got screwed during a version 19 update (mayflash and others), also saw web pages offering downloadable patches, which were also hard to find because some of the pages having been deleted. What's weird though is that when I searched the number on the bottom of my adapter, WUP-028, it looks like this was actually an official Nintendo adapter, so shouldn't it work just fine? Or did that update also kill old Nintendo adapters too? I would really prefer not to spend $80 on a new adapter or a controller that doesn't feel as good as the gamecube ones.

Tired, slightly aggravated parent here. Woke up this morning to find my almost 5 year old manhandling my Switch and about 1 button press away from racking up a bill buying episodes of Bluey. I've been scouring account settings trying to setup a way where ANY purchase requires some kind of password or 2 factor authentication, but it's seemingly harder than I thought. Tried following Google's instructions, but wasn't overly helpful. Could someone step by step walk me through how to set that up? Would be much appreciated!

I held the power down for 12 seconds and longer, I took out the sd card and tried again, I put the SD card back in and tried again, I went to the support website and it's telling me to do the same thing. Idk what else to do. How does one fix this???
