NBA 2K18 removes screenshot feature on Switch with version 1.07 due to “new Nintendo policy”
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Since launch, NBA 2K18 players have been able to capture screenshots with the game. Almost every title on the system supports the feature. But with version 1.07, the functionality has been disabled.
The exact reason behind this is interesting but unclear. A customer support representative says that a “new Nintendo policy” prompted the change.
The same also applies for another 2K title, by the way. You can no longer take screenshots in WWE 2K18.
