Missing game data detected on banned switch (lemmy.world)

My switch was recently banned, which isn't an issue for me since I don't play online, however something happened where my physical copy of pokemon violet was either corrupted due to a console update or the game was mid update and my switch reset itself.

When I try to open the game it tells me to connect to the internet to verify the game files for missing data. Since my switch is banned I am unable to connect to the internet in the first place. My question is how would I go about fixing this issue, assuming the game card or save file is affected.

This happened to me as well a few times (different games though and digital installs though), your save data and cartridge should be fine. You can just delete and reinstall with either torrented or .nsp's downloaded onto your console using Tinfoil (or the z ones, forgot their name) .

I believe one free shop called "Ghostshop" is still up
