Hi,
In settings I have put "Restriction Level" to Child, and it is "off" the Whitelist. But my kid still able to play it. Of course I uninstalled it several times, but he installs it again.
How he is able to play it while it is not in the white list?
How to block it definitely?
@rzak It's likely you'll get a quicker answer via Fortnite's support on epicgames dot com. Epic Games owns Fortnite. I've used epicgames Fortnite support and gotten a reply within a couple hours, which is pretty respectable.
Or,
Contact Nintendo support for blocking games. Although, I think you can only restrict games by age rating. I'm not sure you can target one specific game, but I'm guessing. Someone else here may correct me. Although, tech questions like this can sometimes go unanswered, which is why I have provided links to fortnite and nintendo support. https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Support/Contact/General-Customer-S...
@rzak Blocking a free-to-play game is tricky. Thinking out loud here, if you remove your payment data from the nintendo account, then I believe that blocks access to eshop, which could block re-downloading games. I could be wrong. But you also might be blocking all online gameplay access, or possibly blocking more things than you want.
When you set up your switch, you can't access eshop at all (even for free demos) unless there is payment info saved to the nintendo account. Your payment info is saved to your nintendo account on nintendo's website. So, you have to log into nintenod's website to do this. I don't think you can redownload games without eshop access. You'd have to test it. You can always go back and re-enter payment info later.
@rzak
Or you can lecture him to tell him if you don't want your kid play that game due to certain reasons, maybe the negative impact from playing that game and made him understand.
Ask him to play other games and introduce him to other games that he has appeal to.
Also, since he kept violating your rules to not playing that game, you can keep his Switch and only let him play with supervision from you so he will not sneakily installing that game without supervision.
And keep telling him how you really don't like that game and keep preaching him about the negative impact from that game.
@WoomyNNYes
Not that it helps here, but I don't have payment info saved in my account, and I can still download demos and free (to play) games.
Obviously, I have my account details, but not a credit card, PayPal, etc
Eels idea is actually not a a bad one, As woozy said it’s sorta tricky, so what you could do is get them sick of Fortnite, or have them get over it, everyone needs a break from a game at some point.
Did you ask them why they keep playing it?
@Anti-Matter if the kid didn’t listen to them when they deleted the game, why would they listen too a giant piece of paper on the wall lol.
@Anti-Matter I don’t think they have no issue with remembering at all. There purposely disobeying because they want to play a specific game. So again, I don’t see how that would fix the problem at all.
@jump We talking about that cow leather type of belts?
Nintendo are like woman, You love them for whats on the inside, not the outside…you know what I mean! Luzlane best girl!

Sorry for not being active much recently, but I’m very much alive!
@StarPoint
I mean, if I am a parent, I will do anything to discourage my kids for liking fortnite.
That thing and other harmful popular things will never been allowed for my kids.
