Person I'm dating was upgrading to a Switch 2 and I was amenable to buying their used Switch 1 off of them.
So, now I have a Switch 1. I don't really know what to do on it. I'm not familiar with the Switch 1 game catalogue, yet. I haven't been keeping tabs on Nintendo since the Gamecube days. I had a similar experience with buying a Wii after it was old news and that was cool until they stopped supporting online features for the device (so I couldn't download any more retro-catalogue games).
So, I guess I'm hoping to finally get all the retro games I like on the Switch 1 via its online features. Also, hoping to grab a few banger games for guests to play whenever they are visiting me. I also have several friends with Switches at this point so I guess online multiplayer might be of interest.
So, what I'd like to know:
- Should I be concerned about online support for the Switch 1 suddenly vanishing like it did with the Wii in the near future?
- What are your game recommendations for single player?
- What are your game recommendations for in-person multiplayer?
- Any particularly great multiplayer titles where you can play online with people you know?
Very cool - I just might try this, thanks!
Just wanna chime in this is absolutely the first thing you should check (if your switch model can be soft modded). Online gaming be damned, having access to the entire switch library for free is great
it's 100% possible to do both as long as you commit to keeping your shit separated, i've yet to see anyone get banned and it not turn out that they were using mods online like a dumbass
no problem. Hopefully the one you bought was an early model, those are easier to mod
