ProtonX | 69 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 I picked up 11 broken switch demo/kiosk consoles of varying models. 2 have power issues, but the rest all have software issues. Hoping someone can point me in a direction on how I could get these units back to kiosk/demo mode… or any real info. There doesn’t seem to be much on these- especially the OLED ones.

a3quit4s | 4,092 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 If you enter recovery mode and factory reset it, if it had special software it may revert back to that but in all probability it will just return it to a normal switch and nothing special. I personally don’t have any experience with them though so I wouldn’t even know if recovery mode was possible on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyree_Cooper | 741 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 (edited) Could they have been disabled in purpose to avoid further use or resale after the marketing period? Edited May 14, 2022 by Tyree_Cooper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProtonX | 69 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share Posted May 14, 2022 I’m not sure- from what I gather they may have reset as part of maybe a recycling center/disposal policy. This results in the error that is given. recovery mode allows me to update- but it still shows the same error after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
