A few weeks after the Switch 2 release, Nintendo has stepped up its fight against piracy by blocking devices that use MIG Flash flash cartridges. These devices allow you to copy games to a built-in microSD card and run them without the original cartridges. Users on Reddit and other sites report that Nintendo has learned to detect such manipulations, even if legally purchased games are copied.
One Switch 2 owner shared the story of how his console was blocked after trying to use MIG Flash with dumps of his own cartridges. According to him, Nintendo has introduced new methods for detecting unauthorized access to the system, which makes using such devices even more risky than on the previous version of the console.
Nintendo traditionally takes a tough stance in the fight against pirates, and the situation with Switch 2 confirms that the corporation continues to improve the protection of its devices. The manufacturer of MIG Flash and Nintendo representatives have not yet commented on the current situation, but users are already advised to refrain from using such media in order to avoid blocking the device.
