Previously, console bans have been split into normal bans and superbans.

People with normal bans could still use Nintendo's CDN, just not use the network services.
People with superbans could not use the CDN at all.

You had to do some fuckery with the CDN to get superbanned back in the time, but I heard that "Nintendo elevated all bans to superbans"...

Does this classification exist anymore? Is it possible to still get a normal ban or do you only get superbanned?

A ban is a ban. No such thing as a superban. If you download anything via the eShop CDN on a modded console, play your pirated games or run homebrew whilst online, then your console is banned.

Superbans did exist before, if you connected to the services while hacked you got banned, it only got elevated to a superban (or CDN ban) if you attempted to do something nefarious using Nintendo's CDN.

You can normally use the online services and download updates on a modded switch, as longs as you don't install any types of NSPs or XCIS (so best not use any signature patches). Also Cheating or modding in games while online can lead to bans, but that highly depends on the type of cheats and mods used and the game you are modding in. Also fucking with the online server in any way can lead to band (like using custom images for your profiles).
Atmosphere is build to be used while going online, so the default settings without any extra patches are configured for exactly that.

Normal bans allow you to download firmware updates from Nintendo servers but not games/dlc/game updates etc. "Super ban" prevents access to Nintendo servers. Both types of bans still exist.

Such bans still exist. But I guess Nintendo doesn't care anymore that much these days as long as you don't cheat online or going online with pirated content. I mean...I'm permanently online with custom firmware and still not banned.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Counting my blessings that my insurance hasn't caused me really any headache (yet, at least) despite the fact that I've been getting way more appointments and what not recently due
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @K3Nv2, what do you mean, what are you trying to do?

    Just looking at a built in mouse pad keyboard combo
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I loose the dongle constantly but they may have better connection with usb frequency

    Imo Bluetooth is always a option of last resort for me
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Except for phones because it tends to be pretty reliable there
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I got a bad habit of taking out usb transmitter and loosing it because they can't you know print names on the damn things
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    But any desktop OS, I've never had anything but frustration trying to get Bluetooth devices to work reliably and stable. It might pair and connect once, and then next time I go to use it I have to delete and re-pair it again
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    5.3 has been so good I think 6 is really going to make it stable
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I remember how shit 3 was

    Ptouch labeler aren't terribly expensive, label shit yourself fam. This is the one I own and there are cheaper ones too https://www.amazon.com/Brother-P-Touch-PTH110BP-Portable-included/dp/B09QXYND6S

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Even my Xbox One controller I have it paired to my desktop over Bluetooth, it USUALLY works but sometimes it refuses to connect and I have to delete and re-pair it. Maddening
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gigabytes built in mobo bt/wifi pairs pretty decent
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    That's what I'm using :(
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ran a driver update in device manager?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Not recently but I think it's less a driver issue and more just Windows having a garbage Bluetooth stack
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Could be I was having issues when I first upgraded it and didn't realiser gigabyte has specific driver revisions which is stupid
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Which is married to the boards revision

    I've gone years without ever removing a logitech usb transmitter. Across several replacements of keyboards and mice. It just stays put.

    tldr usb > bluetooth imo

    ive never had luck with built in bt transmitters. They're always in the back of the pc and signal is super crummy vs a usb bt dongle in the front of the pc,
