Can save data for physical games be transferred between consoles remotely?
Hi guys, my switch and all my games were stolen while on vacation. Now I need a new switch, but after some research I’m curious if it would be possible to transfer save data between consoles even if i have to buy a new copy of the game. So here are my questions:
- If I buy a Nintendo online subscription for my account, do the saves from physical game that I’ve played on my switch automatically upload to the cloud?
- Once save data is uploaded to the cloud, would it be transferred to new consoles as long as I’m logged into my account?
- how would I go about transferring virtual game cards entirely onto a new console?
- once this data is transferred, can I deregister my old switch/remove my account from it and still have access to the cloud save data (as long as I maintain my Nintendo online subscription)?
- is there anything else I need to consider/other data transferring options?
any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!
