The Nintendo Switch SDK has been leaked

in-switch-un-sdk-de-la-nintendo-switch-leake-1.jpg

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.

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.
X Doubt

It looks like old stuff (and heard it is also) so it's probably not worth downloading. Pretty cool to see though

It specifically listed retail cartridges as writable using a retail console, separately from development ones. Could just be a mistake in the writing though.
It is a pre-release document, so maybe it's from before they decided to make retail cartridges read-only?

...either that, or the price of 16 GB mask ROM is significantly higher than 16 GB NAND flash, so they're using NAND flash in retail cartridges to save money.

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.
It was during the early days. It was limited, and under the NX name.

I literally found it yesterday by searching "hbg 4chan.org" in google. Though no point now the link that was there is dead. You'll have to find it elsewhere. I know a certain chaos site has a google drive link. Can't give anything more specific than that though.

Lol not an expert here but this is looking this is going to be the worlds fastest hacked console right here.
I think so too. And I believe it's because we saw a lot a talented devs pop up during the 3ds and Wii u scene, many of which hopped into the switch the moment it came out. It's the large amount of devs immediately working on it imo

Homebrew and Hacking General on 4chan's /vg/ board.
To put it simply, /vg/ is for continuous threads about the same gaming-related subject so /v/ doesn't get flooded by them. /hbg/ is a homebrew thread there.
