[Nintendo/Zelda/OoT Remake] What should I expect if I return to Nintendo now? (piefed.blahaj.zone)

I grew up with the N64 and OoT. I quit console gaming after the GameCube, having loved WW, only to return to Nintendo for a year or so when the Switch came out. I was still able to "plug 'n' play" shit back then. I don't own any consoles at the moment. I would like to purchase the Switch 2 in order to play the remake of OoT and then, probably, just sell it. No, I do not have friends to borrow shit from.

What should I expect privacy wise? Do I need to create an account, send Nintendo a saliva, urine and hair sample in addition to a voice sample and image and age verification? Or can I just buy the console, buy the cartridge and play and be happy?

If there are any bugs, you'd have to turn the wifi on to update it, obviously. But as long as you're playing a singleplayer / offline game, you can totally play on Switch 2 without internet. I tested this with a fresh copy of Splatoon Raiders.
