A Switch flashcart is literally impossible to make. Nintendo added a crazy amount of security to the cart slot that makes that completely impossible.
I dont think so, yes the gamecard slot is checking each unique id but as long as you are not online then you should be fine. There might be someone already making it for a long time but since almost all are in CFW then they cannot release as it will not going to make money but now that the new switch hardware has been released and no way to run CFW on it then Flashcart is the only way.

If we knew a way, would we use Flashcards long ago, right? And besides, why a flashcard at all? They are overpriced. It is simply not possible. No matter what you think or not.

You’d need to exploit lotus’ bootrom to send it a modifed firm, which isn’t possible. Even if you somehow did, you’d still need CFW with a modified/custom/reimplementation of FS to actually send lotus a custom firm.

There is something in the works right now underground (works on all FW's and all consoles) and an ETA of around 6 months before its ready to the publics. (small edit, this solution will cost money due the amount of research that went into it)
It will come but it will take time, for now the Team-Xecuter Certified line of products shall do.

Uh no. Nintendo created a means to detect flashcards and completely block them. More specifically in the code (as far as I know) it can detect the middle man. So even if you had a legit cart dump, it wouldn't matter as the switch would detect the middle man part of the flashcard. (if you trying for something like sky3ds) SciresM talked about flashcards a long while back and explained it's impossible pretty much.

Switch lite will prolly get hacked, Look at the wii mini, people found the first Vuln in it, and are hacking it as we speak.
But you see how long that took, released in 2012, it's almost 2020. Switch mini probably will get hacked, but only time will tell when. So don't plan on it, but it will happen eventually.

Switch lite does have RCM, I'd be kind of afraid if it didn't. the only thing they did was patch the bug that we used to enable homebrew. RCM, stands for Recovery Mode (Duh), So it being completely removed from a system is scary(and not well thought out).

They took out RCM bug, not RCM.

a thing to note in this thread, people are saying "probably not." "most likely impossible." Not Impossible, and not No. Because it can happen, if someone looks into it, and if someone at nintendo didn't iron out a bug.

MOST LIKELY TX just take a long vacation and prays Sciresm could hack it and release it for free :)

I guess that you meant "Wii Mini".

if this has a truth to it i would wait for a switch pro to be release to get most benefit from an exploit

I don't want to get hopes up prematurely but I've been taking a look a this switch lite and it seems that what Nintendo did to block the exploit was hardfix the joycon over the joycon rail so that you wouldn't be able to paperclip hack it. Right now I'm looking into shoving a paperclip threw the button and or joystick hole I'll keep you all up to date on my progress.

I'm assuming this is just a funny post, but even if they did that, all you would have to do is find the cpu line, see if there's a test pad, and use that instead :P

Its not that I doubt something will be found eventually, but i would be very surprised if it doesn’t come with the drawback of having to sit on a particular firmware. If something as good as the fusee gelee for the original switch models is released, I will be very very surprised.

Bullshit, Xecuter don't develop their own exploits for anything, not the Xbox 360 RGH, not the SX, and not whatever this is. And an exploit 6 months away from being ready is a ridiculous notion.

Just use a hacksaw (H4x0r) to separate the joy cons from the main unit. That'll reveal the rails and you can use your jig as before.
Edit: I know it's obvious, but before people start to ask: You get rid of the iPatches the same way.

    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.
