Warning as some people are returning bricked Switch 2 consoles after MiG carts


Nintendo recently took the decision to ban some Nintendo Switch 2 consoles after they were found to be running MiG Cartridges. The ban means that you can not access any of the Nintendo Switch Online functions on your Nintendo Switch 2 console. One person who thought he was receiving a good deal from a returned console at Walmart came home to find that his purchase had the infamous Error Code 2124-4508, meaning that its online functionality had been blocked. However, to the unknowing eyes at Walmart the returned console seemed fine as it booted up etc. Be very careful purchasing a second hand Nintendo Switch 2 console as it may have been banned from accessing Nintendo’s online services.
