CMOT70: The Switch is now officially hacked! And it's a doozy. Just make a jumper and short out 2 pins, that's it. No mod chip, no software hacks, just load in your unsigned code...or "cough cough" backed up Switch software that you already own "cough cough". They already have Linux running Dolphin and GC games, and native emulators won't be far away.
It's an Nvidia hardware vulnerability that cannot be patched, the only fix Nintendo can do is to detect unsigned code and ban the consoles from online. Oh yeah and new revised consoles are due out VERY soon with a fixed Tegra.
So, for some people, the value of year one Switches has just skyrocketed. I was going to play the few exclusives that I wanted and sell mine. But now...I think I'll play those games I want and keep it online for patches and everything, then I'll take it offline and use it to run all my old N64 and GC games etc. Now the Switch is a keeper! Awesome little machine!
Woo! I love hacking my Nintendo consoles. Wow, Linux running Dolphin? How's performance?
