@Barbarian2625 Its an error with the last firmware update. No word from Nintendo on a fix though, they just recommend troubleshooting that doesn't work.

Apparently a lot of people are mad that the UI for SMT V is borrowed from TMS FE I'm glad it's using gameplay and UI elements from TMS FE because it was a really ******* good RPG. Only issue was how Nintendo censored it I've never understood the whole "TMS was a mistake" thing

Hey there @NintendoUK, I can’t play Dead by Daylight and can’t download another game I just bought because of issues with error code 2123-1502. Can I have my money back for the game I just bought AND for DbD given that it is also completely unplayable?

@H2007_SM64 Nintendo did not want anyone to co-stream the direct presentation, so SMG4 set it to private to avoid legal issues.

Nice of Nintendo to have a e-shop sale when no one can download any games from the e-shop due to that stupid error they refuse to fix!

I've been trying to download two new Nintendo Switch games for almost a week now, and they won't download. No matter what I try, I keep getting the same damn error message. This is so frustrating. What the heck, Nintendo?!

@jessejjarvis @NintendoCanada Connect your switch to a mobile hotspot and run download then switch it back to your normal WiFi. Worked as a fix on both my kids switch devices.

@mcfredyson @JJacobMarion @Pokemon I don’t think it’s illegal. It’s just WiFi DNS changes. It’s how Nintendo asks you to fix the recent downloading issue

@ClixSwitch @HackerVilela I don’t understand how that refutes my point. I said Nintendo has no issue altering their old games for rereleases and they obviously don’t. It’s a licensing nightmare, I agree. So what? Did they alter their old games or not? They have no moral objection to altering these games.

@NintendoAmerica Any update on when a patch for the download errors caused by Switch firmware 12.0.3 will be released? I’ve bought several pieces of digital content that I cannot download because of your flawed system firmware update.

@SuperMarioFact It's interesting how back then, Pokémon was just another Nintendo game, and would show up in crossovers and cameos no problem. Now Pokémon is this behemoth of a separate entity and rarely ever does any crossover stuff with other Nintendo games, and what it does is super limited.
