The big deal is if your Switch dies all your saved data dies with it.  How is this not a big deal?

I'm sure Nintendo will fix this tho.

As in it can't be transferred from one Switch to another?

Isn't this kind of normal, though? If your PS4 suddenly dies I'm pretty sure that data is gone as well, is it not?

You can transfer save files on PS4 through USB (had to do when the Minecraft achievements were bugged and had to erase my save files to get my platnium) or store them on the cloud if you have PS+. The former though you have to do ahead of time of course.

So all is needed on the Switch is saves on the SD card and/or cloud storage and this issue is fixed.
