Homebrew Question Will my new switch get banned?

[olixus]

Hi just picked up a fresh new switch yesterday for gaming. I have another switch which is banned which I use for home brew. Will my old account work that is on my banned switch work on my new account without getting it banned?

Also I’m not using homebrew or cfw on my new switch.

I don't think they have been banning accounts, but they definitely could if they wanted to.

you could you know call them and ask about your new switch

Bans are initiated via console cert which is unique to each console, so no they won't.

Yes, they could if they wanted but that would present a legal challenge.

False, there would be no legal challenge. Nintendo can ban console, user name, ip address if they wanted to.

afaik switch bans are console bans, not account so they don't carry over

You can unlink your nintendo account from the old switch.

If you go online at all, yes.

Hum ! I did go online for five minutes, my switch didnt even ask for my permission and she downloaded 10% of dbz f update but Im not banned yet. And im to scared to go online to check x)

Make a seperate nintendo account on your new switch. Why bother risking it for something so easy to do?

@Babbau, 100% doesn't mean that you get banned in instant.

You will probably get banned in the future.

They don't ban accounts, what they do ban is device ID's. You are safe.
