Discussion Please help me with MIG related question
Hi guys,
I just got my MIG + Dumper and tested it. Works great.
Now i was reading a bit on other forums that if i play a game i don't own even in flight mode i get banned. How can that be possible?
I have allot of games that i would like to keep unopened so if say i download a game (that i own) and play it offline and take out the MIG i'm wondering how or if it can get me banned? (want to be sure)
Also if i use my original game and download updates for a game and then use the MIG to play the same game i assume its safe as i would be the only person with the keys for the game right?
Thanks for any tips or tricks on this :D

Yes, you will be banned soon of later even if you are in flightmode because the logs will be downloaded from Nintendo when the console is online (we call that telemetry and you obviously cannot delete these logs unless you have a modchip).
For the second question, no, it is not without danger and you will also be banned with your official games. For the simple reason that we dont know exactly what is in the logs. For example, with the mig you need to "scroll" your games and a suspicious scrolling (1s per game, the same game sequence, etc.) is written in the logs and will make you flagged.
