Nintendo Switch 2 owner was banned for playing second-hand Switch 1 games


Switch games

Nintendo‘s flagging system apparently went into overdrive the other day as a Nintendo Switch 2 owner who purchased a number of second hand Nintendo Switch games from Facebook Marketplace was banned. It is not clear how the error happened but the user said on Reddit that he inserted each game one by one to get the updates to download before going to sleep. He then received a message the next day to say his access to online services were restricted. Thankfully he was able to contact Nintendo Support who were helpful and asked to see the listing and for him to snap photos of the games and they were able to unban him.
