    So I installed ReiNX Today and got everything working so far, but one issue I didn't expect to have is with my Legitimate Eshop games. I'll keep this nice and short. I want to play my Eshop owned games while in ReiNX but the switch does a check for the internet before launching digital games. Is there any way I can get around this?

    Since when does the switch check online before launching a digital game?

    I'm on 6.0. I don't know if it was introduced this firmware, but while in airplane mode and with no internet settings, I'm told I can't play it.

    Hmm, I have mostly physical games, but I have a couple of eshop purchased games. I'll have to check, as that doesn't make sense if someone can't play their legitament games when they're on a long flight without internet.

    I'm on 6.0 and I don't get that at all. What game are you trying to play?

    Breath of the wild was what I tried and wasn't able to launch.

    Weird, I'm on 6.0, ReiNAND and SX OS 2.0 and can play my BotW eShop title offline just fine.

    Is the Switch your registered console?

    I just figured out the issue. I think it involves me signing out and setting the switch as my primary console. Not too sure if that is a wise thing to do now that I'm running CFW

    I have this same issue as well. I can no longer run the games that I purchased on the eShop, even though I haven't unlinked my account. It asks me to connect to the internet to check, but that would probably get me banned. How do you solve this?

    Not sure what he means. My Switch is already set as the primary console in the account.

    I tried to unlink the account before launching CFW but it wouldn't let me do it even on 5.1.0, as it asked me to update to 6.0 first.

    I have kept my Switch offline and didn't get this message before launching ReINX.
