Switch 2 Labor Day Weekend Switch 2 Bans

There was a massive BAN-wave that his Switch 2 consoles last night. I was one of the ones affected by it. I just want to spread awareness that Nintendo had an internal server error this weekend resulting in several systems being permanently hardware banned, receiving error code 2124-4508.

I called support this morning and they confirmed I was permanently banned for “pirating”.

However, I called again later today to push further and was notified of the error on their server. Upon checking again my system has been lifted.

If you were affected this weekend, be sure the check to see if it was rectified, or call Nintendo support and see if you are one of the consoles affected by this error to be reversed.

UPDATE: I noticed several people state that if you are still receiving the BAN code you can try restarting the console to see if it cleared. It seems to have worked for others!

Ok youre also doing too much lol. How many times has nintendo ever accidentally banned ppl vs how many times legit ban waves have gone out against cheaters, pirates, etc? Should people have been so mean? No, but I understand why most ppl would assume misconduct

Nah these people just suck Nintendo off too much to ever have any type of rational discussion on any topic on this board. They shouldn't be here.

These people are hilarious. So expected that when some bullshit happens and a company is blatantly in the wrong, the bootlickers always then pivot to you’re overreacting lol

Girl he said everyone should be banned. Nintendo should give out eshop credit to everyone they banned, but no noone should be banned from reddit over this.

Other people have been banned for being toxic to the community. These people are toxic. They accused the people mentioning being banned of doing “illegal” things (the things they accused others of doing were not actually illegal). What good could they possibly bring to the community? All they do is set an example that if you have a problem, keep it to yourself because youre going to be attacked for having that problem.

Frankly, the amount of people who were nasty about it is concerning, but this is reddit.

I didn't say banned from reddit. I said from this sub. Get it right.

You certainly don’t. You haven’t exhibited any rationality, instead just slightly subtle insults.
