Switch 2 permabans are so permanent that not even Nintendo itself can overturn them, as one user named 'Twink Link' discovered to their horror

Botw.

A Nintendo Switch 2 owner with a – in my opinion – hilariously named username, Twink Link, had their system permanently banned recently apparently because Nintendo didn't find it so amusing. They contacted the support staff, who allegedly laughed and found the incident amusing, but the final update isn't so funny.

This player generously lets everyone in their family use their Switch 2, but this has somehow led to their sister's username being changed to Twink Link. If you've seen Link in any of the modern Zelda games, he is a bit of a twink, especially in Breath of the Wild, which the family was all "so excited" to play until this system ban.
