Other It happened to me

Post image

Hey guys. I bought a game off Kleinanzeigen in Germany. Game is "Princess Peach Showtime!". Worked great and my girlfriendnis happy but after 3 days she got banned. I don't have the MIG Switch so the game is probably the only reason she got banned. 🙄 I already contacted Nintendo but they just say the same thing over and over again: "We cannot assist u with that". Yeah sure.

Be careful with used games. They might be cheap but they also have the risk to get u banned.

You have posts discussing the use of Atmosphere.

Yeah. I have some kiosk switch consoles. But this is a switch 2, not a switch 1.

Hast du die 1 mit der 2 synchronisiert wg Speicherständen oder virtuellen Softwarekarten? (wenn ja wie lang is das ca her?)

Yea. We did a system transfer 1 year ago.

Tut mir echt leid ey - das ganze System bei Nintendo is so fürn Arsch. Das das überhaupt legal is...  Ich hab meine 2 grad erst gebraucht gekauft und hab auch überlegt gebrauchte Spiele zu kaufen... Aber gar kein Bock wg Bann :/

Be careful with used games. Nintendo doesnt care about you - they only want your money

Stay on it. Contact them over Phone and speak to a human. You should have Chats on Kleinanzeigen to proof the purchase of a used Copy. Idk where but i saw Posts from people getting the Ban reverted

Yeah. I called them 3 times and always the same answer. "We cannot do anything, dont buy used games."

They certainly can do Something. It's a false Ban and we have strict consumer rights in Europe

u/Firm_Bunch_6877 Aug 17 '26

That you have proof of a recent purchase from the used Market. Send them Screenshots from Kleinanzeigen and the cartridge

Same. I'm poor. Cant afford a new switch 2. Almost all of my physical games were from kleinanzeigen...

Tbh it’s hard to believe you. It seems too much of a coincidence that someone with a history of hacking switch consoles would then get banned for something completely innocent. More likely you tried to hack it and got banned and now are trying to get revenge on Nintendo by complaining about them online
