Hi Guys my lad was trying to play fortnite last night on his nintendo switch and the switch kept coming up with a error code message 2002-2096 its something to do with reading the memory card.
Ive tried 5 different memory cards and the same message keeps coming up. Can anyone please let me know if they have had this problem and if there is a fix to this problem?
