    Sadly, that would mean save duplication would be possible - which is a huge no-go for the Switch for some godforsaken reason. Fuck Nintendo, sold my account, got the Deck, and now my data is backed up instantly, for “free” (price included in the 30% fee). Not like it’s more than a fre hundred KBs per game anyway.

        I love how the solution to all the issues most users have with the physical Switch are solved through emulation, and Nintendo, instead of simply giving people these features they want (which are entirely software dependent not hardware dependent) they wanna incorporate Denovu to try and stop the emulation scene.

        I don’t know how that is cheaper or easier than just, you know… Letting saves be moved to the SD card and making a better, more navigable and curated store.

          My biggest issue is that I can’t use it to play the games on my nice monitor at 4k with my GuliKit controller with hall-effect sticks that never have drift issues. I’ll still buy the physical games to support the devs if they’re good but I’m not buying another Switch.

          Also forgot to mention, you know what died inside the switch? The chip that is responsible for encrypting the data, which also held the key, which means rest of the HW was okay, but the chip was unsalvagable (tried both official and unofficial channels).
