Nintendo Switch's Latest Update Disables Popular Game-Sharing Loophole
"This update doubles our cost on all games going forward."
"A workaround lets users play the same game offline without online play."
"With two kids, game sharing saved us a lot of money."
"The loophole allowing multiple Switch systems to share one copy has been closed."
The recent Virtual Game Card update for the Nintendo Switch has eliminated a loophole that allowed multiple consoles to access the same digital game for online play. Previously, users could share a single game's digital license across two Switch consoles, but with the new update, both consoles must now purchase their own copies for online functionality. A workaround has been discovered for offline play, but many users have voiced their frustration, citing increased costs for families with multiple consoles. Nintendo is set to introduce a GameShare feature with the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 in June.
