The latest Nintendo Switch update introduces Virtual Game Cards, enhancing the game-sharing experience by allowing digital titles to be shared more efficiently. However, in doing so, it closes a loophole that previously permitted two users to play the same shared game online at the same time. Before, users could log in to their Nintendo Account on a second Switch and share games this way. While the new update does not eliminate the old system entirely, it may disappoint those accustomed to simultaneous online play under previous rules.
The new Nintendo Switch update introduces Virtual Game Cards for game sharing, but also restricts simultaneous online play for shared titles.
With this update, sharing games digitally now comes at a cost: the ability to play simultaneously has been removed unless using the new Virtual Game Cards.
Nintendo continues to cater to game sharing preferences by allowing players to manage Virtual Game Cards through a website, making it more convenient.
Before this update, players could have two switches sharing the same game online; now users may feel disappointed with the new restrictions.
