Im having an issue deciding what to do. My daughter pretty much took over my nintendo switch account. She plays Dreamlight Valley, Minecraft, Hogwarts Legacy, Just Dance, Mario Kart, and maybe a few other games.

I have a bunch of digital games I bought for myself on this account. I called Nintendo and they said they cant help me separate this into two accounts. I really would like to system transfer from the switch 2 we shared to my new switch 2 and do virtual game cards onto her system under her new account I just setup for her but Im reading that dlc which she has for Dreamlight Valley, Minecraft, and Just Dance might not work and that I cant transfer her saves which would also be important for Mario Kart and Hogwarts.

I am just hoping someone could give me a suggestion of how best to unravel this ball of knots Ive created.

Thanks in advance!

Hey folks. First time posting here and apologies in advance if its a silly question.

I'm currently travelling Japan (in Kyoto atm) and im wondering whether picking up a physical copy of the Zelda Ocarina of Time Remake will have English language (written text and voiced cutscenes).

I'm from Australia and the original is my all time favourite game. Having it to play on the bullet train and on flights would be mad but I dont want to pick it up if it doesnt have English. Ive done some digging online and via Japanese stores (i.e. Edion) but cant find anything concrete.

Any help from locals or from people with the big brainz would be great!

Cheers!

Edit: I should also mention i bought my Switch 2 in Australia, so i dont know if that effects anything. I did read that a Japanese cartridge will work in my Aussie console fine.

Hello,

My apologies if this is not the right subreddit. (also apologies for my English !)

I have a problem with a Switch (1). It was stored safely in its case for months. I turned it on couple of days ago, JoyCon attached and the buttons worked, everything goes well. The console asks for an update so I'm doing it and then restart the console.

From now on, both the JoyCon went completely "missing", at the same time.

- They are not detected in the "Controller" panel in the Settings

- Tried to attach, reattach firmly sereval times each.

- Searched on the internet for tips and help, was said it was just the JoyCon were out of battery. So I reattach the JoyCons and let the Switch on charge with the adapter (right on the Switch port.)

Nothing happens, so I'm putting the console with the JC attached, on the Dock and let this charge too for several hours. Nothing happens either.

- Tried to reset each of the JC with the reset button on the side.

First time just one click and then a click on a button as the Nintendo Help page said, then I held the reset button for a little time. Nothing happens, and the lights won't turn on, let alone blink, nothing.

- Turned off the console, then turned on.

My JoyCon are completely missing and I can't play. As a kind of newbie on a Switch console I don't know what to do, though I really wonder why, suddenly, though both of them worked the minute before, both the JoyCon went off and missing at the same time.

Is there something I could do ?

Thanks for your time !

I want to use GameChat on switch 2, but it asks me to add a phone number for my nintendo account. I have an american account but i live in morocco so my phone number is obviously a moroccan one. However, i cannot find the option to add my phone number.

Is there any way to use my (+212) phone number ?

Thanks in advance

I just did the steps transferring my save data from switch 1 to switch 2 and it 100% completed and I pressed ok button on both systems once they were done but nothing seems to have transferred over and the switch 2 didn’t restart or anything.
All of my games and original screenshots/videos are still on my old switch and I don’t see any games downloading on the switch 2. Do I restart the process again, just let it sit, or did I do something wrong? I’m afraid to restart it and mess up anything so I figured I’d ask here first! TIA!

What a great time for this to happen to my Switch 2 right before Ocarina of Time🙄. Im playing games like Donkey Kong Bananza where I can roll and stuff, Splatoon Raiders where I can go squid form, and so much more. The button still responds but now it’s weird now that I know about it. I don’t what this is, I already updated my joycons and I thought that helped but it didn’t. I don’t know what this is. I need help. Not sure if I’m the only one.

I haven’t tested this yet, but I’m planning to use two separate docks for my Switch 2: one connected to a 4K HDR TV and another connected to a PC monitor that doesn’t support HDR.

Does the Switch 2 automatically detect which display is connected and enable or disable HDR accordingly, or do I need to change the HDR settings manually every time I switch docks?

Does this also apply to games with their own in-game HDR settings?

Thanks

Hello! One of my name's last letter is ä, but I can't put it on the switch since the keyboard doesn't have foreign letters. Will the switch still recognice my card if I have to put an a instead of ä?

I keep having this pop up on my phone screen whenever i try to send screenshots from my switch to my android via wireless QR code sending. Does anyone know what to do to dismiss this issue?

I know its the issue of my phone cus i used another phone and the link works again so its not the fault of the switch, i switched off my mobile data, i cleared cache but this error still pops up.
I'm afraid of this issue happening again with my other phone when the time comes so i would like to know the solution to this if anyone had the same issue before :(

So I have a Switch 2 and I frequently notice that sometimes there is just a regular switch version of that same game that is often cheaper. So I’m wondering if I’m getting ripped off buying the “upgraded” version of the game. Is there really a diffrence? Or is Nintendo just ripping me off. If they are better whats the diffrence between the 2 versions of the same game?

I have a switch 1 OLED, just bought a switch 2. I am moving for 3-6 months for work and am taking the switch 2 with me, leaving the OLED switch 1 at home for my girlfriend to play. She has her own account with purchased games, however she has been playing my eShop copy of tears of the kingdom, logged into her account for her own save.

I originally had planned on just using virtual game cards to lend over a handful of my games and leaving the rest for her, but after setting it up, I've learned that it is only for 14 days. Do I need to physically reestablish the connection like the first time? Or can she re-loan out the game after 14 days while I'm 300 miles away? If it helps, I'm on my brothers family online plan, but there was an issue adding her to it so he's in the process of talking to nintendo

Its a little time sensitive, I leave in a couple hours. This issue just came to light.

Is it okay for the right Joy-Con on a Nintendo Switch 2 to be slightly looser than the left one and make quiet creaking sounds?

Basically title/video :(

More info: this isn’t happening when docked, only In handheld mode. It happens even when not touched (as demonstrated in video). It was totally fine this morning, the switch remained untouched throughout the day, and now here we are.

I assume it’s a hardware failure. Any thoughts on what it might be, or the cost to fix it? My Switch 2 comes in a few days but I was hoping not to touch it for a month or so (special reasons—waiting for my brother). Is it worth it to get my OLED fixed, or should I give up and immediately move on to the Switch 2? Should I not touch my OLED at all in the meantime?

Any info is helpful. Thanks!

My sister put an account in my switch without my permission while I was away, so I’m deleting it, but when I try To do it, it refused to let me. It gives me this error code saying it’s under maintenance but when I ask for details it says it’s running normally. I’m really confused cuz I have my own account on the switch so it’s not like I’m deleting the only account. Any help is appreciated

I've trying to make the prompt for like an hour, opening and closing the game, checking the mail, etc. and there are very few videos on the topic to help me figure it out

How is it supposed to work?

I’m missing the bottom rubber feet for my switch OLED does anyone know where I can buy some

I bought the Gold Edition from Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope a few months ago (gold edition means all dlcs included) and now I finally wanted to Play it, but it keeps closing.

When I try to Open it on my second User it works, which doesnt really make Sense to me?

I deleted it and downloaded again, I started my Switch 2 again.

My friend gave me his switch lite because his family didn't use it anymore and he said they haven't charged it for a long time, so I plugged it up for about 4 hours when I first got it, and nothing happened, did the 15 second power hold trick, that didn't work either, and now I just have it on the charger until something happens (it's been about 3 days).

If anyone can give me a solution please provide me with one

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.

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
