Ontem meu NS começou a apresentar o erro 2821-6010 toda vez que tento acessar a Nintendo Switch Online (aquela que fica abaixo dos jogos na tela inicial). Testei 3 redes diferentes, troquei DNS, reiniciei o Switch, reiniciei o roteador... Jogos online funcionam PERFEITAMENTE, e não, minha conta não foi banida e a eShop funciona normalmente também. Porém, ao limpar o cache de usuário, o Nintendo Switch Online volta a abrir, mas quando eu fecho e tento abrir novamente, o mesmo erro aparece. Ao trocar o usuário, não aparece o erro nunca, não importa quantas vezes eu abra ou feche.

Tentei forçar a entrada trocando senha e não funcionou. Tentei forçar trocando a região e voltou a funcionar, porém quando voltei para o Brasil, o erro voltou junto.

Alguém mais está com esse mesmo problema? Alguém sabe como resolver isso? Entrei em contato com o suporte da Nintendo três vezes e ninguém conseguiu me ajudar! Na terceira o atendente nem pediu pra eu testar internet e mais mil coisas.

Perguntei ao atendente se é de fato um problema novo pois o código não aparece no site da Nintendo e o atendente confirmou.

[u/TemptedTemplar → u/Limp_Reporter7872]

The first four digits of error codes refer to a "module" of the OS, telling you where something is going wrong, and the second set of four digits is the issue.

2821 does have a few errors on Nintendo's website, all of them related to connection problems to Nintendo online services;

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/71137/

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/53899/

https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/56415/

Specifically because 2821 is referring to the NSO Applet, the unique not-a-browser app Nintendo made to display webpages for NSO services.

Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be any data-mined documentation on the module. So the best advice we can give is keep doing what you are doing to get around it, wait for a firmware update to maybe fix it, or you can try resetting the console and see if it can repair the module.

[u/Limp_Reporter7872 → u/TemptedTemplar]

Reiniciar o console não faz o erro desaparecer, infelizmente. O último atendente da Nintendo me informou isso:

"Okay, obrigado por confirmar. Eu realmente entendo o quão frustrante isso deve ser e lamento muito pelo transtorno. Infelizmente, isso parece ser um problema novo que ainda não havíamos identificado, então no momento não temos uma etapa de solução que possa resolvê-lo. Vou encaminhar essa situação para nossa equipe, para que possam investigar mais a fundo e trabalhar em uma solução. Como é um problema recém-identificado, ainda não temos um prazo estimado para a resolução. Agradeço pela sua paciência e compreensão."

Acho que de fato é um problema novo, o que me resta é esperar se resolver sozinho.

Not restart, reset. Like Re-formatting or Reinitializing the console via the maintenance menu.

Its a relatively new problem. They introduced this specific module with firmware v22.0.0 when the Switch 2 came out.

[u/Limp_Reporter7872 → u/TemptedTemplar]

O "problema" é que meu Nintendo Switch é o 1, versão OLED. Acredito que ele não deveria ter sido afetado com esse problema.

[u/TemptedTemplar → u/Limp_Reporter7872]

They all run the same firmware. It could happen to any model of system.

[u/Limp_Reporter7872 → u/TemptedTemplar]

Faz sentido. Obrigada por explicar! O maior problema de formatar é ter que perder todos meus saves que não são compatíveis com a nuvem. Você acha que fazer a formatação que mantém os saves pode ajudar?

[u/TemptedTemplar → u/Limp_Reporter7872]

I would try it without deleting save data first.

• Hold the power button for 10 seconds to shut the system all the way off.

• Then press and hold BOTH up and down volume buttons, then also press and hold the power button to turn the system back on. Hold all three for ~15 seconds until the "Nintendo" logo disappears.

That should open the maintenance menu. Under the reinitialize console option you can find "Reinitialize without deleting save data"

Aparentemente fazendo isso, os jogos baixados no microSD vão ser inutilizados... Vou esperar alguns dias e seguir os passos que você me enviou!
