I wonder if a banned console could download a game from a game key card, because if it can't, then there's not much of a difference between a ban and a brick.

    For future games yeah, but there's a huge Switch 1 library that a banned system can play but bricked system can't.

    Also funnily enough, I believe they can safely play the "backed-up" games offline, that originally got the Switch banned. 😀
