Re: Poll: How Would You Rate Nintendo's Switch Online Offering In 2026?

I let my subscription expire this year. I re-upped my expansion pack for the third time last year, but I didn't play a single N64/GC game for 12 months. I tried the Zelda upgrade briefly but I've already put 600+ hours into those two games.

There aren't many Switch 2 games that require online multiplayer. I don't play Mario Kart and I stopped playing Splatoon 3. Played the recent Splatfest on a 7-day trial, but I don't think there is anything coming out that will encourage me to resubscribe.

Re: Pokémon Fan Loses "20 Years Worth Of Data" After Performing Switch 2 Transfer

So if there are already 3+ million Switch 2 sold, and 10s of millions of users have Pokemon data on Switch 1, presumably 100s of thousands have safely transferred their data, maybe even a million. Because the reddit user deleted their post, there's no way to know if they are totally truthful. They may have discovered their Scarlet data was on a different profile. And there is no confirmation that they tried to contact Nintendo. There were similar stories about people losing their Animal Crossing data when sent to OLED, but Nintendo was able to restore those saves through customer service.
