A terrible disappointment for a player who wanted to transfer his Pokémon Scarlet Red and Purple data from his Switch to his Nintendo Switch 2. In addition to his lost save, more than 20 years of Pokémon captures vanished.
A great start for "MK World" and the Switch 2
The release of the Nintendo Switch 2 caused the expected tidal wave. With 3.5 million units sold in 4 days, the hybrid console broke records, becoming Nintendo's best-selling console in such a short period of time.
Between a Mario Kart World scrutinized and devoured by players, as well as the 25 other games available at the console's launch, there's something for everyone. Obviously, most of the games that were suffering the hit are seeing their performance improve, such as Hogwarts Legacy, The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild and its sequel Tears of the Kingdom, or even the ultimate version of Cyberpunk 2077, a port specially designed for the Switch 2. (the pack is 499 euros), enjoy their old Switch games, the upgrade of which (sometimes for a fee) allows them to benefit from a boosted resolution and a better frame rate.
This is particularly the case for the Pokémon Scarlet Red and Purple versions.It is possible to transfer your data from the old console to the new one, locally by connecting the two devices together.
However, several players have reported problems when transferring their data. On Reddit, for example, ThatOtaku26 reported having lost all of his data when transferring his save from his OLED to the Switch 2. That is - brace yourself - more than 1,000 hours of gameplay, representing "20 years of data," in his words. In response, other gamers reported having the same problem. Remember that Pokémon Scarlet Red and Purple, like most Pokémon games, are among the titles that are not compatible with the console's integrated Cloud save feature. All progress is then stored locally. It is then strongly recommended to use Pokémon Home, the license's own Cloud service for players who want to store their Pokémon in order to use them from one version to another.
