Previously, console bans have been split into normal bans and superbans.

People with normal bans could still use Nintendo's CDN, just not use the network services.
People with superbans could not use the CDN at all.

You had to do some fuckery with the CDN to get superbanned back in the time, but I heard that "Nintendo elevated all bans to superbans"...

Does this classification exist anymore? Is it possible to still get a normal ban or do you only get superbanned?

A ban is a ban. No such thing as a superban. If you download anything via the eShop CDN on a modded console, play your pirated games or run homebrew whilst online, then your console is banned.

Superbans did exist before, if you connected to the services while hacked you got banned, it only got elevated to a superban (or CDN ban) if you attempted to do something nefarious using Nintendo's CDN.

You can normally use the online services and download updates on a modded switch, as longs as you don't install any types of NSPs or XCIS (so best not use any signature patches). Also Cheating or modding in games while online can lead to bans, but that highly depends on the type of cheats and mods used and the game you are modding in. Also fucking with the online server in any way can lead to band (like using custom images for your profiles).
Atmosphere is build to be used while going online, so the default settings without any extra patches are configured for exactly that.

Normal bans allow you to download firmware updates from Nintendo servers but not games/dlc/game updates etc. "Super ban" prevents access to Nintendo servers. Both types of bans still exist.

Such bans still exist. But I guess Nintendo doesn't care anymore that much these days as long as you don't cheat online or going online with pirated content. I mean...I'm permanently online with custom firmware and still not banned.

    That Dell data breach is worse than people probably realize....

    When I worked for Dell we had access to data about military contracts and addresses for high ranking people.

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol

    sometimes I wonder why anyone would ever buy mega man x legacy collection 2
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I always thought that capcom shuffled the games in these collection, but apparently they are all in chronological order, which makes legacy collection 2 worthless
