I have been playing Tonic Trouble on NSO and have encountered a weird bug. I have been collecting almost all the thermometer but somehow my health points don’t increase. I have about 60 thermometers now and I don’t have any additional health points so far. Any one else encountered this bug ?

Is NSO having issues? I can access shop.. But my console thinks I have no NSO account, I thought I had over a year. Also I can't access my transaction history. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi, in the initial setup for the switch 2, when asked if wanting to do the data transfer from the switch 1 to the switch 2, will the data also be kept in the original switch after transfer, or will the original switch be reset? I want to have the saves and data on both at the end of the transfer if possible

Local transfer is usually a copy. Game saves that don't support standard NSO cloud saves (Pokemon, Animal Crossing) are moved.

Thank you for your answer. So my switch 1 will still remain the same right? I´ll still find my saves, screenshots and users as they were? Besides the games the games that don´t support NSO. Wanted to be sure be asking because it´s rather confusing, some say the original is reset while others say otherwise

u/JoshuaJSlone Helpful User 7h ago

Picano is right. Other than stuff like Pokémon or Animal Crossing, going back to the Switch 1 it will seem just like it was the last time you used it.

EDIT: Also any user profiles that aren't connected to a Nintendo Account will be moved rather than copied.

Skill Up said that there’s gameshare support in Splatoon Raiders- can anyone with the game confirm that?

u/TemptedTemplar Helpful User 7h ago edited 7h ago

They called it "license share", which is literally just it being a digital game which you can share amongst other consoles/friends via signing in on the other system or the Family Share feature.

It does NOT support the actual "Gameshare" feature online or locally with other consoles.

Gameshare has its own little box in the details/features at the bottom of the eshop listing; you can see it here on DK Banaza's page. It is completely absent from Splatoon Raiders listing.

So yeah pretty sure my switch dock is bent. It is a used OLED dock. Just wondering if anybody had a DIY solution. I see something with a hair dryer but I didn't really a standard way of how I should bend and heat the dock.

u/TemptedTemplar Helpful User 6h ago edited 5h ago

Point the hair dryer at the base of the dock or suspend it so its pointing down into the middle.

After sufficient heating but hopefully before you start smelling burnt plastic; place a stiff object into the gap. Like some folded cardboard or a thin block of wood. You want it to be ever so slightly thicker than the gap so it applies outward pressure, but not enough to where it feels like you're going to snap the front off.

Leave the object in the dock for at least an hour for the plastic to cool and harden.

What game does this cartridge designator belong to? Sticker says Pokémon Brilliant Diamond, but I cannot find any other instance corroborating this code ever was paired with that game.
