Nintendo Will Remove Network ID Sign-In After Nintendo Switch Hack
Nintendo has decided to take action to curb the latest hacking issues with the Nintendo Switch be eliminating network sign-in options. The company released a statement complete with an FAQ about what's been going on and why they're doing this. If you're not already in the know, this past week social media was filled with stories of people who say their Nintendo Account was hacked to access their PayPal information. Emails were sent out telling people to reset their passwords, but it appears the damage had already been done to some. A new update has been sent out and the company is encouraging 2-Step Verification for everything moving forward. But as a precaution, the update will also eliminate the ability for gamers to sign in through their Nintendo Switch with a Nintendo Network ID. You can read more from the statement below.
While we continue to investigate, we would like to reassure users that there is currently no evidence pointing toward a breach of Nintendo's databases, servers or services. As one action in our ongoing investigation, we are discontinuing the ability to use a Nintendo Network ID to sign in to a Nintendo Account. All other options to sign in to a Nintendo Account remain available.
As a further precaution, we will soon contact users about resetting passwords for Nintendo Network IDs and Nintendo Accounts that we have reason to believe were accessed without authorization. In addition, we continue to strongly encourage users to enable 2-Step Verification for their Nintendo Account. If any users become aware of unauthorized activity, we encourage them to follow the steps in the Nintendo Account recovery process. During the investigation, in order to deter further attempts of unauthorized sign-ins, we will not reveal more information about the methods employed to gain unauthorized access.
We apologize for the inconvenience and concerns caused to our customers, and we will continue working hard to safeguard the security of our users' data.
