Nintendo Switch Firmware 3.0 Hacks Made Public

C7CkHQdXEAMQKe1.jpg

Team Reswitched has made their webkit exploit toolkit known as PegaSwitch available to the public! The newest version now supports up to firmware version 3.0, and comes with an Open Sourced SDK known as libtransistor so homebrew developers can get started on the console. They -even- released a Switch Homebrew emulator (they made it clear it will not emulate games) so you can debug and test homebrew without having to use the Switch every time!

With Switch homebrew still in it's infancy, don't expect anything crazy for a while still... but what an exciting time for the community!

Well, looks like the homebrew community is going to lose it's mind. Hype train ahoy!

I looked at the SDK, it's uh... a little underwhelming at the moment :P But they promise to improve it, I'm guessing once they get their "ROhan" feature working which gives arbitrary code execution in user space! :D
