Brick change warning: Nintendo Switch 2 host is banned by online services due to using MIG burn card

Passionategeekz According to June 17, the Nintendo Switch burn card was named “Mig Switch”. Genuine players can backup the game through NXdumpTool and simulate it with the Mig Switch card to achieve N-in-one quick switching.

Perhaps due to the limitation of detection technology, Nintendo has been turning a blind eye to Mig Switch recording cards before. Until the Switch 2 was released earlier this month, Nintendo began to step up its efforts to crack down on Mig Switch.

Several users reported that Nintendo has begun to ban Switch 2 hosts using MIG Switch (now known as MIG Flash) recording cards. After using the burn card, the host was blocked directly, prohibiting the device from accessing Nintendo’s online services.

What Passionategeekz needs to remind you here is that this kind of burned card cannot be used directly for piracy: Nintendo has complete anti-piracy measures (mainly achieved through unique cassette identifiers). If two users try to play online at the same time using the same copy, the system will be marked as piracy. This may lead to misseal, and second-hand cassette transactions are particularly vulnerable.

Switch 2 has stricter control in this regard – a large number of users reported that even if users use legally backed up ROMs, the host is still banned.

Although the Nintendo account will not be affected, the host involved will be permanently banned from accessing online services, including Mario Kart online, eShop store, YouTube app and cloud archives. The only exception scenario is that firmware updates are not subject to this limitation.

Under the Nintendo User License Agreement (EULA), MIG-Switch has the right to “brick” the host without Nintendo’s authorization and cannot define a duty to unblock it.
