We have no way to move his zelda/mk8/spla2oon progress from his nintendo account he was using on my switch to his own system...
He has to start everything over... This needs fixed like 6 months ago.

I'm almost certain they're holding it back for the paid subscription. It's really dumb they don't have it now. It's one of the big things keeping me from getting a second Switch.

Doesn't matter if he called Nintendo... There's no way to move save data to a different system at the moment (unless it is sent in for repair and they send a replacement).

It's Nintendo, the answer to any question asking if the Switch can do something is "NintendNo.
PS4 - Because it was the next gen console i was the most interested in.
Warrior - Because i usually pick the Warrior class in MMORPGs when i played them. |

Saves are linked to the account signed on, so moving accounts from system to system should be a thing. I thought this already WAS a thing. http://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/22467/~/nintendo-accounts-on-nintendo-switch-%28faq%29 Aren't you supposed to be able to move accounts so long as the account is only active on one system? This might just work for the purchased games and not the saves though. But regardless, if the choice is between you losing progress and your child losing progress man up and lose your progress.

The fact that we can't backup our save files frightens me the most.
I also own a PS4 and had a corruption of save data twice so far (Skylanders ~30h, Lego Dimensions 100h+). The games were unable to load the save data. Fortunately I could restore the save data because of the USB backup I had (lost a view hours though). I don't care if I have to pay 20 EUR for cloud backup, but not being able to backup my save data at all is really a shame. :-(

If systems weren't been modded via custom save files then we wouldn't have this problem. This is just them being smart

Hey @RPGMaster95
I'm sure this will be implemented TC, its obvious how bare-bones the whole OS/UX is, it seems like it was rushed and and many options did not make the cut. It might also have to do with some fear of opening up a piracy backdoor, and that's why it's taking them longer. I think the only things you can do now are the following: - trade devices with son, you get the new one, but he has all his saves. Or is there some deeper issue with who gets which one? - Contact Nintendo via all possible channels and social media, ask friends or just acquaintances from the internet to also campaign that this is a really unacceptable way of leaving things in a current gen system. Let them know we're not happy. Hopefully they speed their work/decisions and let us manage saves like on any normal system. Don't get too angry and frustrated, that will just take enjoyment away from the fun you can have with your son and/or Switch. I certainly wish you that a resolution to this issue comes ASAP. You're not the only one, in fact you're one of many that are irritated/annoyed/angry/disappointed, etc.

Except leaking credit card info isnt a feature, browsers and saves are actual common features. And while sony my get hacked, ps4 and xbox one are retalively secure, all of nintendos past systems have easily hacked relatively quickly and from what ive heard progress has been made on the switch as well. I know youre the resident board fanboy but maybe pull your head out of your ass and admit when nintendo is wrong.

I'm not sure how people didn't get that from the beginning. There are PS4 and XB1 games too large for one 50gb bluray. Of course it was going to be an issue on Switch with max 32gb cartridges. Hell, we knew before launch that there would be digital games too large for the internal storage (DQH1/2). You're also acting like Nintendo themselves are doing this and not third parties. Somehow they were able to squeeze games onto DVDs for the 360 but won't do the same thing for Switch, and you guys want to blame Nintendo? Absurd.

There's some companies affected, but again correlation doesn't imply causation. Of course fanboys don't even know what that means.
You'd have to show more than speculation, which almost all articles on this point out (that it's speculation), to prove Nintendo is affected as well. Because this has been going on since last summer and companies already admit they weren't affected.
https://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/11/02/nand_flash_supply_shortage/
But clowns like dog don't know how to even read or know the definition of simple words like speculation, sabotage and whatnot.
So they constantly make a fool of themselves. Dog is especially delusional amongst them because he keeps coming at you going on about how he'll shut you down with his source, but when push comes to shove, he runs off like a coward as usual.
It's speculation which is completely plausible, along with the other possibilities.

@DunGoofd posted...Only delusional trolls accept one side and peddle it as fact.
Fixed.
Nevermind the fact that the source you posted was made before the Switch was released. Nintendo didn't expect the demand to be high, and as a result were affected by NAND shortages. You're only proving my point.
Here's some additional information from a commenter:Cisco and Dell Can't Tell the Truth
OMG, you'd expect that with a worldwide shortage of SSDs Cisco and Dell would at least acknowledge that it is causing problems. Their customers definitely know it's a problem.
I won't say who I work for, but just know that Dell has removed SSDs larger than 1.2TB from their price sheets because they cannot fulfill the demand for a minimum of 90 days. This is no fault of Dell, as Lenovo is short, too. So, Cisco is definitely short. They won't admit it, but they are.
I've heard it has to do with extremely high demand occurring at the exact same time manufacturers started changing their build technologies to "3D": Appears the switch-over to 3D manufacturing has been more difficult and fraught with problems than expected. This, coupled with unusually high demand, have caused the shortage which will, very likely, last until year's end.Corrin was a mistake.

Um. You clearly don't know how to read do you. I clearly said both are plausible. Only you're peddling one side as fact. Once again, you make yourself look really stupid.
_Dog posted...Nevermind the fact that the source you posted was made before the Switch was released. Nintendo didn't expect the demand to be high, and as a result were affected by NAND shortages. You're only proving my point.
Correlation does not imply causation or are you not understanding that? You have to prove Nintendo is affected because other companies have denied it. So you have to prove every company is affected because only one anonymous source has linked it. Nintendo has not even hinted at this in any shape or fashion. However they admit the NES and SNES are limited intentionally.
And what does Switch being released in March have to do with it? The shortage has been going on since August last year.
_Dog posted...Here's some additional information from a commenter:
Are you seriously using the comments section to further your point? Do you even see the irony? Because people have been accusing Nintendo in that same fashion. Hell, the previous GameStop CEO outright accused Nintendo of artificial shortage with the Wii. By your logic, the CEO trumps a random commentor with absolutely no proof or credentials, thus artificial scarcity is confirmed. Right?
I can't believe you don't see the irony in such stupidity. This is a new low for you.*insert sig*n00bsaib0t posted...GeneralNooblord posted...

Some of the things they aren't even telling us beforehand like the sd card issue. What else are they hiding from us? Yeah it's fine to be educated but Nintendo is deliberately hiding things so that makes it hard. Plus to be fair almost every device today can be backed up and transferred, so it would be easy to assume that's just standard.

The people who did do research probably didn't know they'd have to go out and buy memory cards to get games working, nor that they would bend or overheat and just stop working completely within the first year. And before you blast out your ass that those people who experienced hardware failures are in the minority, that might be true but there's no research that can be done to find out things a corporation intentionally hides from you.GoldLiger posted...RPGMaster95 posted...
