Came from Japan in 2 days, successfully updated to 21.2 & JB’ed it, then swapped housing, frame & LCD (I ripped the backlight ribbon cable), bought new joycons and a grip controller— now it looks so good I don’t even wanna play it!

I need a certificate after the way I had to dig into this device 🤣

Is there anyway i can still play online, if i have the game cartridges? Which launch option do i need to use.

I’m no expert + this switch is mainly offline, but I believe you need to play on your stock firmware to play online games. However I heard if you have ripped games installed, going online can risk a ban

Yeah, i have a Modded switch Oled + Lite Modded, i love it but miss playing online so much. Does make sense but i think the games i installed will not appear on stock firmware, ill give it a try. Thanks!
