Nintendo Switch owners with the console's latest system update have noted that it is no longer possible to play the same digital game online across two systems simultaneously.

Previously, a Switch designated as a primary console could load up a digital game and play online alongside the owner of that game logged in via a second Switch.

TLDR: You could share bread as long as they are in the same store, now you have to either lend your bread priviledges to a friend or make them buy it for themselves.

actually forget this tldr, no one will understand it, not even myself, I don't own a switch.

Depends who you ask. Users said it was a feature, nintendo says loophole.

Hows it a loophole when it's on their site.

Like I said, it's upto Nintendo what they wanna say. For users, it was a feature.
