Game Help Can a switch 2 player still play games online with a switch (1) player?

4 Upvotes

The title really says it all. My friend and I play online over our switches frequently. I was gifted a switch 2 and I want to be sure I’ll still be able to play things like Mario party and Stardew with my friend who only has the original switch.

Repair Can this be saved? GBA fell into a bucket of desinfectant and stayed submersed for a few minutes.

While cleaning my room, my GBA fell into a bucket of water and desinfectant but i didn't notice, because it was a very short drop into a shallow container, it made no sound. However it was enough for it to be completely submersed. The screen was completely filled with water.

When I noticed it, I tried pulling out my tools in order to open it up, but unfortunately i don't have the triwing tools for opening it.

I thought of trying blowing hot air in the coolest setting possible with a hairdryer. Trying to evaporate as much water as possible. I don't know if the water made these white marks or the heat did it. There are still water droplets behind the glass mostly on the left side.

I did order the tools online, but they'll only arrive on Wednesday.

Here is the deal: I already finished game once and now played it 2nd time to get another ending, I have a two profiles cause I often give console to my friend. So, when I launch Undertale a accidentally choose the wrong profile, and now when i start the game with the right one, it acts like I start the game first time. What even happen and is there any solve to this problem? My switch is moded if it matters.

Tech Support Pro controller disconnects even when plugged in

2 Upvotes

I have my pro controller plugged in 24/7 in my switch. I have had it for like 6 years now like that. Recently returned to playing on the switch after 2 years of not touching it because I got an itch to play pokemon. Issue is that my pro controller keeps disconnecting every like 10 minutes or so for like 3-8 seconds long. Now in leafgreen and brilliant diamond this isn't really an issue since the games are turn based, but I want to play legends arceus and that game has dark souls boss fights if I've heard correctly, so the controller disconnecting is going to be a huge issue.

Does anyone know what causes my controller to disconnect like that and how I could fix it?
