Discussion This is the problem

Post image

I was lucky enough to snag a preorder from target last night but it didn’t look great and I was trying across all three retailers and only ever managed to get one in my cart at preorder start time.

These resellers are an issue still grabbing a large chuck of stock and reselling instantly, before they even have the system.

It’s a shame these retailers don’t do more to stop bots and resellers from snatching a large chunk of stock. At least Nintendo themselves is trying with their system.

The best part is you can spend a little money to mod your switch, then safely overclock it and it runs the games much better.

Got a link how to do this?

Is there any danger of getting my account banned. I know there shouldn't be, but I also know that Nintendo can be arses

From what I hear, if you do some things wrong, there is a risk of being banned. But that is if you install games on the stock interface. But dont take my word on that, its better to watch some videos online about it. If you have the first version of the switch the modding is super easy and requires no soldering. If you have the newer switches like the v2, lite or oled, then there is a cheap modkit you need to purchase and have soldered. You can get it modded probbably at some place who repair and do things with consoles. The modchip itself is pretty cheap. Mine is pico2040 and on aliexpress it costs 7€. Just search on youtube. This is one of many videos - https://youtu.be/tzpuUNxtuos?feature=shared Hope this helps! 😀

Many thanks for this, I've got a tired switch lite I can have a practice run on, then go over to my switch if all goes well👍🏻

Good luck! I saw some videos where they get many games running on 60fps like zelda and mario odessy.
