Bad news for Switch players.

Postby GameOfThrones » November 5th, 2017, 3:55 pm

I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings but it seems that there is a problem with the Nintendo Switch and it's save system. Using the tried and trusted formula invented by Sony for the original play-station Nintendo seem to be going backwards.
Fortunately forward thinking Sony and Microsoft do not have these problems. When will Nintendo ever get up to speed?

More news on this incredible problem for the Switch (might be a system breaker for some people).

Summary: you can transfer your files to another system more easily on the PS4 and X-Box than on the Switch.

Not a big deal; someone will find a way to back the Switch up. Just like every other system:

No reason to be so condescending toward the system and company. This site isn't about console wars.

I was joking but the person who wrote the original story was deadly serious. Nintendo will release a patch for it. It does go to show that Nintendo are not immune to the problems of modern digital computing.
