Forums - Nintendo Discussion - I bought a 2nd switch but....

Maybe if ur worried you could get the money back at the pawn shop? (Idk how those shops work), or just enjoy ;) I mean its not your fault at all

Whatever you do, don't sell it on eBay or anywhere. Sony bought a hacked PS4 that way and then sued the hell out of the guy selling it. Either return it to the pawn shop, do a local transaction. Or just play the games and update it later. Or if you want the console and the free as card but not illegal games, just update the console and format the SD card. Free 200gb and card is still great value



Just a guy who doesn't want to be bored. Also

I... don't think it's possible to fit all of those games in 200GB

This is a strange one, I just bought a 2nd hand switch from a pawn shop. I bought it because I've traveling overseas and my gf wanted to play the switch so wouldn't let me take it.

 

Upon taking it home I checked the micro SD slot and it had a 200gb memory card, this came as a shock because the guy at the shop told me it had nothing. When i charged it up and turned it on, it had custom firmware with a shit ton of games on it.

I didn't even know that the switch was hacked already, I'm guessing I can't go online with this. But i basically picked up a switch with every big title on it, I feel kind of bad though. 

 

What would you do? 

Write Nintendo at this email: piracyscene@noa.nintendo.com and explain them the case.

Play 'em all and don't feel guilty! It's just Ninty's fault for choosing evil NVidia!

I would treat the hacked games as demos. Try them out and buy what you like. If I need to bring the second Switch online, I would reset to factory settings (there is an option) update the firmware and connect with a fresh Nintendo account (maybe Nintendo has marked down the firmware numbers and blocks the account, so I wouldn't bring my usual account near this device).
