are you serious?
Yup. I've found zero confirmation that homebrew is impossible past 3.0, however there is no confirmation it is possible either. If you can find undeniable evidence that the Switch can't be hacked past 3.0, please show me.
Note that I said I have found zero confirmation, not that there is zero confirmation. My lack of understanding may just because I didn't research hard enough.

Anything past-3.0.1 will require higher-level compromises on higher firmwares whether that be for CFW or in a spoofed firmware.
Thats the thing that worries me.
i want my cake and eat it too. and with the current information i could gather it seems like that you can get homebrew (and potentially backup loaders) for everything 3.0 and below. but will loose the ability to play newer games. and IF theres a way to play higher firmware games it allways requires a new entry point to be found. Thats why i probably will update with the next physical game i buy (mario or skyrim)

The thing is there's no evidence that switch fw greater than 3.0.0 can be homebrewed. So we are working with what we know so far. You'd be stupid if you want homebrew and choose a 3.0.2 switch over a 3.0.0 one.

my luck that i'm on 3.0.1 since i dont want my switch hacked
if i would be able to use it with the current version then i would instantly use it because i always have to hack every console thats hackable on the current fw. dunno why

That's what I said. And I'm not planning on buying a 3.0.2 system, I already have one. I accidentally updated it.

it's not that it's impossible (nothing is unhackable!), but there are no known exploits for 3.0.1+, so it will take a long time.

Yeah, that was my thought. The only thing I can do is hope. I think I'm gonna leave my Switch at 3.0.2 for now to see if anything comes up later on in the year ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    @Psionic Roshambo, The Wii U gamepads are tied to the console's region, so its impossible to find a cheap gamepad that supports your model.

    Unless you modify your system, of course, and remove the region check.

    @Xdqwerty can we discuss chrono trigger
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @Xdqwerty I like how the game had the middle ages 1000AD, the dark ages 600AD.It was great seeing the post robot apocalypse 2300 like Terminator and enter the matrix. some of mad max and fallout. 2300ad though it could had used more elements instead of just a generic ai uprising. It was a great idea for their judgement day to be 1999 Y2K.

    -great additions if they would have made an expansion or dlc in my opinion would be finding out humans trapped in a matrix -

    a follower having a cyborg character living tissue over metal endoskelleton like terminator, and the synths from fallout
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    4After Zeal fell it would have been good to see more ancient eras. Perhaps Sumeria based in one area, then Egypt based in another area, Greek based in another area, then roman based in another area before the middle ages.---------

    ----between 1000ad and 1999 is a big gap they should have had the age of revolution like the american and French Revolution

    then the cowboyy era in one area of map and the Industrial revolution/age of enlightmentthen a ww1 and ww2 and a cold war era
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    they could have added 75,000 bc like assassins creed. zeal was already establish in 12, 000 bc , soething before the kindom rose
