Hello, A-Sven-gers! Thanks for checking out this video on how to set a Nintendo Switch to Maintenance Mode. Did you run a System Update and your Nintendo Switch won't turn on? In previous videos I showcased how to hard reset your console as well as how to reset a frozen Nintendo Switch system; in this video I'll show you the Nintendo Switch secret menu, Maintenance Mode. In this safe boot screen you can run a System Update, Initialize (factory reset!) the Console, and Initialize Without Deleting Save Data. This system recovery mode is your last line of defense, use it wisely.
