Gaming Game-breaking crash encountered while playing Smash Ultimate

[jonbond92]

Hi everyone,

I have been having a very frustrating time with playing through this game thanks to a reoccurring "error code 2002-4144". The only place I've seen it mentioned anywhere is on this site in regards to a modified Xenoblade Chronicles 2 game, but nothing for Smash. I contacted Nintendo support and they have never seen this error before. My game and switch are both up to date, checked for corrupted data, never modified in any fashion. Help!

Under what circumstances does it happen?

Under what circumstances does it happen?

The easiest way to recreate it is in world of light, when I pick specific matches such as against Rosalina and Luma, but it will happen in regular smash and online battles. The crash will happen right after the fighters appear before the match starts then crash to the error code.

I also can do it in the spirit board with certain ones, such as picking wedding Bowser and wedding Peach. Simply selecting them will make the game crash.

Are you using CFW?
Did you pirate the game?

try a different SD card and re-download any title updates to rule out poor SD performance or any corrupted data

You should've recommended them to download the game to the nand

It's a clean system and I bought the physical version. I tried downloading the game data again without the SD card inserted and I had the same error.

Is this a cartridge or digital or backup?

Edit:
nevermind, guess the post was after you mentioned it.

So system firmware is 6.20 and Smash is physical with 1.21 update then.

I don't have any problems with that one.

Does it recur if you completely shut down the switch (as in take it out of dock, go to power options and actually shut down) and restart?

If you say Nintendo doesn't know about the error code, you must really have a broken cartridge of the game and we feel bad for you. You should go digital next time

try popping the cart in and out a bunch of time to help clean both the cart and pins on the console

 

[jonbond92]

If that's the case, then yeah, it does suck. I bought it brand new from Costco in a sealed package. I was informed by the Nintendo rep that I would be able to send the cartridge in to be examined by their engineers, so I'll probably go ahead and do that. I'll post an update when I find out what happens next.

Hi. What happened to your cartridge? Could you fix it? the same code appears in mario deluxe but from the start of the game
