Hacking Will I get banned?

[SykoLogic]

I installed a title with Tinfoil, I created a separate account for it, but can I load my main account and play Fortnite online? Will that cause Nintendo to ban me?

Yes. Say goodbye to Fortnite in the next ban wave

You are already banned when installing a pirated game unless you restore your NAND without going online.

 

[alkar]

Yes

Even if I haven't gone online?

A nand backup wont protect you

Why ?

 

[Cubuss]

yes

Why would you install Fortnite with Tinfoil? It's already free on eShop

I didn't install Fornite with Tinfoil. I installed another game.

Oh, sorry, I just woke up and assumed you installed Fornite, my mistake

BTW, as far as creating a separate account to play legit games and another account for pirated games, the reason you are still at risk is because it's a system ban, not an account ban. NAND backup doesn't matter because the system has an ID that Nintendo uses to identify your system. So even restoring a NAND after a ban won't make any difference because your particular system ID is banned

The switch reports all things to nintendo regardless of what account you do it on. So you are screwed if you went online after using homebrew or cfw

They ban the console not the account

I've been using CFW for weeks now. I haven't been banned yet.

Ah, I see. It seems that I'll have to get another console. One for hacks and one for legit.

Yes, I have two system too, one for hacks and one for original games. I didn't even create an account for the hacked one, never will. I waited for TX to release update 1.4 to install Eshop games. I downloaded outlast 1 and 2 and just installed inside. who cares about online games. I ONLY PLAY SMASH ONLINE.

Honestly, that's the only reason I want online play for. Smash and Pokémon are the only reason I seem worthy of going online with.

With so many same threads, yes, you will get banned.

 

[kitzuki]

I think its time for a sticky in this section lol

Yes, but:
1. Nobody, with these questions, looks at sticky threads nor uses the search function.
2. Mods will never do sticky thread about this.

No dude, you are special, everyone else getting banned are heretics that got the wrath of nintendo, not you, you are inmune to that, in a serious matter, if you hack you get banned eventually

Yep. Welcome to bantown!
