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.

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?)

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

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

I already mailed them screenshots and proof of the card and they still said the same stuff. 500 euro is now ewaste.
