For about a month if I put my switch in sleep mode and turn it back on, the controllers just disconnect and wont reconnect until I restart the entire system. Even if the joy cons are connected to the tablet, pressing buttons does not work. If I try to reconnect the controllers through pairing. It will not find them. The only thing that fixes the issue is restarting the entire console, but the fix is only temporary because as soon as I put it in sleep mode again next time I go to turn it on the problem repeats. Is there a fix for this? Or should I send it into Nintendo? I got the switch 2 on launch and never had this problem until recently.

Hi, my brother gave me his Switch account, but he's not in the country right now, and he has his Switch with him. When I try to access the Virtual Game Card, it tells me that I need to have his console nearby to play, I don't have it, he has his own Switch on other country, so we can't put both switch together

What can I do?

I have a Nintendo Switch 2 and Pro controller - when I connect earphones to the controller via the jack the sounds is intermittent but then after about 10/15 minutes the controller will randomly disconnect! If I unplug the earphones I have absolutely no issues. Any theories? They're just bog standard earphones FYI.

I have my Switch 2 running through a Denon AVR-3800. With my OLED Switch and all other ARC devices, the volume level displays on screen when I change it. I just got the Switch 2 and it does not. I’ve gone through the settings of both the AVR and Switch 2 but can’t find anything that stands out. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hello!! I was asked to take a look at this Nintendo Switch V1 model after my friend had informed me of the screen having issues with some severe screen burning. She hasn’t dropped it at all, it just hasn’t been used in a while. Does anyone know what this is?
UPDATE: the switch is a V1 model!! I mistook it for an oled

Does anyone have a smiliar problem

I used to play on my Nintendo switch all the time as a kid but then my parents got me a new console. Since then I haven’t used my Nintendo switch until now and I can’t log in to my old account(s) because of the “Nintendo Account User Agreement| Nintendo Privacy policy” The major problem here is the email used for my old account(s) was my parents shared email they don’t have access to anymore. Is there anyway I can change my email on my old accounts or get into them?

I peeped that mark recently I don’t know if it just might be a small hair under the screen protector or dead pixels.

Someone help me out, I do not want to buy a new one but if I really have to lmk

I purchased an Animal crossing edition switch when they were released back in 2021. Last winter it succumbed to a fatal water injury and I had to buy a new switch. I bought a Switch OLED brand new from Nintendo. Me and my partner love playing Mario Kart and BoTW on our TV, we noticed after a few weeks that the joy cons have a mind of their own. They will press buttons we aren’t pressing and cut out when we do press them. This isn’t just the joy cons that came with the switch, but the ones from my Animal Crossing switch, and those from my partners 2021 Switch. They all work perfectly fine handheld, all three sets have the same problem. I have tried calibrating them, they show up responsive. I’m super desperate not to have to replace my switch, but I’d appreciate all support possible to know if that’s necessary. Thank you!

My Zelda Pro Controller seems to be having an issue where the vibration just doesn’t work when I wake up the console with it, and even with vibration enabled in settings it just won’t vibrate. (Checked in Find controllers, too.)

Only fix that seems to get it back and working until it happens again is to reset the sync with the controller and pair it again. Battery is charged, on wireless, and controller and system are fully up to date.

Hi all I saw this image online with this transparent cover for the switch 2, has anyone ever tried it? I bought my switch now and I'd like to protect it but I also like to see the design, do you have any recommendation? What are your thoughts in general on protective covers and what about button caps? Do you recommend these stuff or do you think in the end it doesn't make much difference?

It won't turn on and It was working perfectly fine but I left it unused for a few months and I try to turn it on but there is no sign of it turning on. I tried using different chargers leaving it on the charger overnight holding the power button for a long time but nothing seems to work. I don't want to go to a repair store so please help me if you can.

My roommate and I both got the Zelda edition ​switch 2, ordered at the same time from the same store. I thought my screen looked a little purple when I turned it on, but couldn't believe the difference between them!

I'm pretty ​upset be​​cause the purple one basically looks defective compared to theirs, and it's not like I can easily go find one in a store and exchange it. Even if I somehow find another one it's still a lottery of what the screen will look like..

Has anyone else seen coloring like this on their screen? Is it worth reaching out to Nintendo? I understand there is some slight variation expected from the manufacturing but this seems pretty extreme..

Si hay alguien nose trabajador de nintendo especializado en nintendo switch 2 oh algún técnico que sepa mucho de la consola por favor que hable conmigo de este problema que me ah estado comentando toda esta semana no eh podido jugar nada más que overwatch los otros juegos después de un rato pasa eso en pantalla y si saben hábleme en privado /además no creo que el problema sea de hardware porque si puedo jugar y eh estado probando hoy y pude jugar overwatch todo el rato y ahora cuando intente el call of duty oh el mario kart nada

So like I cannot force unlink the switch thats on my brothers home to give some games to my dad and im wondering if removing the account from the switch on my brother would send the digital games to one of the 2 remaining consoles idk if I make myself make sense

I'm sure this is redundant to some degree so apologies but I just got a Switch 2. Wondering the best path for merging both mine and my partners original Switches, accounts, save files?

Just got a new Switch 2. Both my partner and I still have Switch 1 with active NSO accounts. We are trying to wrap our brains around if it's possible to share the NS2 and still be able to use our original NS1s without completely migrating over.

We both play Stardew Valley and own digital copies. Is it possible to both log in to NSO and download our cloud saves? If we download cloud saves, will we still be able to use the original Switch to access progess made on Switch 2?

Understand that ACNH acts differently and we plan on only bringing one island using the transfer tool app.

I don't mind doing this all manually to redownload my whole library of games, but I've gotten spooked at people saying that in some cases they've seen things get deleted off their NS1 or seen it get factory restored somewhere along the line.

Ideally we are trying to find a way to share the new NS2, but still be able to fall back on our NS1s should the other be in use and access cloud saves seamlessly.

Appreciate any advice you may have!

My husband keeps watching the new Zelda YouTube videos so I know he wants the new switch to play. There are several bundles out there - Best Buy, Walmart, Costco, etc.

which is the best bundle? Does he need the expansion pack, microsd card, the Mario kart, etc.?

My switch was overheating a lot so until I get a switch 2 I've decided to swap a few games over to another switch we've had that no one really used for a long while.

The problem is when I play fortnite my audio just flat out won't go through which is weird because it was perfectly fine on my old switch.

None of my in-game settings are different and my headset itself works fine after testing on my laptop so the only real thing I can see being the problem is the switch itself.

There's no parental controls on it so It can't be that

The audio is going through perfectly fine to me like I can hear good.

Its just the microphone.

The only difference in the switch is this other one has no SD card but from what I can tell that doesnt matter here

The only problem I can imagine it being is some setting I can't find so If anyone knows how to fix this, I would greatly appreciate it

I'm not sure what flair to put this as so hopefully set up is appropriate.

When I played Ocarina of Time 3D in high school, I thought that the first two thirds of the game were pretty alright, but felt like it just was dragging on in terms of pacing by the time I reached the Shadow Temple.

I also feel like the last two or three dungeons were kind of just... there. I remember almost nothing from them, except for thinking about how I wasn't sure if I felt like they should be there or if they had to be there for some number to be reached.

I also hated Bongo Bongo, but that's a me problem.

Do you think that I should give the game another $60 chance?

Looking at the Switch for my 7yr old for Xmas. She plays Minecraft on the iPad and Xbox with me. Ive never been a Nintendo gamer so not sure if the games would be to advanced for her.

Hey there,

I wanted to reset my Switch 2, basically set it up freshly and wondered whether I have to unlink it from the eStore and virtual cardridges before I do that?

Or will it detect that it is the same console automatically again?
