Brazil: Nintendo is now facing legal action over ability to brick Switch 2 console


source: procon.sp.gov.br/nintendo-proc…

#Procon-SP, the #SaoPaulo branch of #Brazil’s #ConsumerProtection and Defence program, has stated in a press release that it is challenging #Nintendo‘s ability to #brick Nintendo #Switch2 consoles when it wants, citing certain aspects of it “abusive.” As we already know Nintendo can permanently restrict you from accessing the Nintendo eShop and online play if they believe you have used unauthorised accessories or pirated #software. This leads to the devastating 2124-4508 error code. Procon-SP says that canceling subscriptions or services without explanation violates consumer protection rules in Brazil. Nintendo has said that it has appointed a local #law firm to handle the matter.
