Someone posted on /hbg/ a link to the Switch SDK. I don't know if it's the actual SDK or not because I have no use for it but I thought people would like to know or some shit.

EDIT: For the uninitiated, the leak has been confirmed real by SciresM and others. Go nuts.
EDIT 2: The SDK has appeared on many different warez sites.
EDIT 3: Stop asking me for links. I'm not gonna go dig out the link for you. Besides, someone on /hbg/ said the original link is down.

This got put on the front page, but it's just an unconfirmed 4chan rumor?

No dear, it's public. It's all over MEGA. It's even been archived by some (read: me)

That would be a big step for possiblity of hacking Switch and my dream, some kinda "NXem" /neksem/ . The next step is leaks/exploits, which Nintendo hardwares showed that are literally too defenceless against them. Cemu and Citra proved that it would be possible. Whether how far is this possible, but it is.

we'll be capable of installing games for free

Lol tbh I hope that never happens.

This will really only be useful for the hackers/SDK devs, for everyone else you'd really not want to see homebrew made with this because it would create copyright issues like with the original Xbox.

that chaos site prob will be the one community to ensure the link is up

lol they had one last working mirror that became inaccessible from time to time too
managed grabbing it from there and made my mirrors, posted them there too

 

[TeamScriptKiddies]

Yeah..noo.. thats making no sense.
How do you think small developers could start developing games for the switch?

He's absolutely correct. While some indie devs have access to the Switch SDK, most do not (like myself). You have to be pretty well established already and Nintendo has to aporoach you about Switxh development, not the other way around. Whoever leaked this os absolutely screwed if Nintendo watermarked the SDK....

Been searching for a download for a while and came across a single MEGA link from that chaos site. Can someone give me some hints where to find a working dl link?

I hope this makes it easier to hack the switch for free games. I know it's for homebrew, but homebrew can have code that breaks the console in a way that makes it run something that it shouldn't.

Hows about a google drive link on that spot? Give a few minutes and check where you did again.

Didn't that only become useful after hackers managed to hack the system and even then can't be freely distributed (at least judging by the guide I read)?

Found the GD link! Thank you!

I actually signed up for being a Dev on Nintendo's own service. I've had access to the latest Wii U, 3DS, and Switch SDK ever since. This really isn't big news.

The Switch SDK isn't available for regular run-of-the-mill devs and never has been yet; it's still nowhere to be seen on the downloads page. No idea what you're talking about.
