Hacking Atmosphere to be estimated released in Summer 2018 for ALL firmwares.

[TheGreek Boy]

YES!!!

 

[thedarkmesh]

So if I buy a Switch in store now will it be on the safe hardware?

I thought 5.x+ was incompatible? They found an exploit? Damn.

A better estimate would be when the expoits are released so we can all tinker with our consoles. But I guess "not" is the answer. Kinda turning the idea of a "scene" into nothing more then yet another consumer based scheme ...

Maybe they are afraid of the competition?

Definitely gonna end in a culture with a focus on copyright infringement.

Fusee gelee is bootrom exploit. Pretty sure you can tinker with your console with that, and it's releasing in the summer as stated in OP.

Would love to know what the difference in "convenience" is, because I'd happily do more obscure techy shit to install the hack if it meant I could use eshop/updates now.

...also, awesome news.

 

[Working_Goose]

Omg, yes. I love you dude <3
But did i need some switch game to geht that exploit or whatever like in the good old Nintendo Wii time?
Poketekken XD?
Zelda?

The bootrom exploit that was shown off sometime ago. TX probably had something similar, if not the same thing.

When the product "cfw" is done. So basically when there is very little of interest to do and when you will be nearly a year behind on the reversing. Effectively people will install this as a consumer product with a consumer mentality.

You must be new to the hacking scene, because that's how its been for many years now with the newer consoles. B9S was the exact same on 3ds.

 

[Catsinabucket]

Man, this is appearing to be happening at least a year earlier than I expected! Amazing!

 

[Dr.Hacknik]

Meanwhile I regret not having a Switch.

 

[Vorpal Blade]

tfw I didn't update my switch to 5.0 because of the bricking-dock spook

 

[TR_mahmutpek]

Sooo.. Team Xecuter need hurry up!

So basically they are blocking anybody from tinkering / competition until they can make a name for themselves and be the glorious providers, no? Or what am I missing in this behavior?

 

[Mnecraft368]

Hopefully by summer I will be able to buy the eShop games I miss out on

 

[DiscostewSM]

That can easily be remedied right now.

Anyways, guess I'll need to stay on 4.1 for a few more months and be unable to play online games with it.

Most people won't have use for it without a product. Those who do already have access. Join discord and prove yourself to gain access, otherwise you don't really have actual use for it and should stop complaining. Their releases are centered around the common end user (consumers). Don't like it, find the exploits yourself.

Is there an estimated timeline on when the new hardware revision will actually be released? I want to pick up a spare for CFW don't have the expendable income right now.

It'll probably be a silent release and we might not notice it right away
