You could always do what I did, I bought the Switch in the UK and sent it to my boyfriend in Brazil and had to pay £320 in taxes. I could've cried.

I paid 2450 reais /782 dollar on the release day.
Switch + Zelda Breath of the wild

WOW. Just, wow.

Do we even have TrustZone on the Vita? I remember reading something about f00d being documented (which in order to document you should have at least a basic understanding of TrustZone)

This is impressive.

Lmao. A lot of people comparing this to things like FreeShop, when in reality it would allow us to install homebrew to the main menu and many more things. It would more allow things like CFW, which then in turn allow things like FBI/FreeShop. Will he release his work? No. Should we be excited. No.

I just had a horrible thought that punishment for pursuing this hacking discovery is (more) deliberately limiting supply for the N64 Classic (it's all but guaranteed to come), something I'm most excited over. That won't happen, but yeah.

It's just an code. It's like kernel dump, useless to us.
yeah well that keeps getting said and while it may be true for the time being, theres just going to be another find like this with similar reactions and then eventually this trend will bear fruit and us end users will have the end game in our hands.

when the trend will bear fruit, lets then be fully excited. Right now lets leave it to the hackers. They have trustzone code. But there is still some time till things get done.

My 5 Cents about the Hype:
Many People (me to) bought a Switch Console hoping it will be hacked in the Future - not for Piracy (Stealing Games), but getting a portable Console with Homebrew, Cheating/Save Game Editing, local Storage of Rom Dumps....

I own 5 Games, 2 are on Pre-Order ATM which i had bought even the Console was hacked like the WiiU...

Of Course i am Happy about the Progress made on Hacking the Switch, but: Dumping Kernel and getting the TrustZone code is nothing more than a basic Setup for finding Exploits.
It is good to have some news of the Progress (Twitter, GBAtemp), but i am wondering how many People do think Things like FreeShop will be public in short time ;)

Now this... is the real news. Screw all the other tweets, this is half of the nails in the coffin for Switch hacking. Now the only remaining question is, will they release any of it?
It's derrek. No.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
