This is my thought as well. We've seen how the Vita has been going.It's not worth it this early on. Loads of Switch games are coming. The Vita is in a similar situation, but to a lesser degree.
New Switch games > homebrew

maybe when homebrew gets released we can spoof firmware versions or update just like we can on the 3ds
so ... lol
No but the bug-submission program is basically for this exact reason and case.
Someone from the scene submitted this (whether they were a big or small fish is irrelevant), and they quietly snuck in a huge back-end patch to plug this bug/oversight/hole. 3.0.1 sounds minor, who'd ever expect a huge change in the entire key registry, sysmodules, and OS in a patch like this?
but you dont know whats possible with this bug. lets wait and seeThis isn't the 3DS. Someone will have to hack the new firmwares, find the new keys, and then create a new custom firmware spoof. And then when a new firmware is released that changes all the keys AGAIN, the same song and dance will have to happen. This is complicated further because you're now either asking someone to buy a new Switch to hack after every major key-cycle, or for them to give up their previous cracked version because the Switch is hardware protected from roll backs.
This doesn't even get to the issue of remotely checking the fuse conditions, in which case spoofing is a great way to get yourself banned.
If spoofing and roll back were so easy, Scires and others wouldn't have been warning you for weeks to not upgrade.
It really is annoying how secretive these people are at times. "Oh you will regret not having a 3.0.0". Tell me why. What can I do with this exploit as an end user that should require me to go out and buy a new console?
That makes sense. It is one logical conclusion. And regarding the bug program isn't there a loophole to it?
Allow me to give you a little scenario
What if i report a big bad bug to Nintendo. And then Ninty patches it in FW 3.02. But before they do i tell Users to stay on 3.01 and then once Ninty pushes the new FW i then release/leak the exploit to the community.
Wouldn't that be a good loophole? At the end of the day Nintendo got their bug fixed, i got my money and the community got a good exploit.
I think the one problem with this would be Nintendo suing you for leaking the exploit but then again it is the internet and you could just make up some false story that another hacker leaked the exploit and in that case i dont see Nintendo being able to do anything. Since as we all now there are Multiple people working on the switch right now.
What are your thoughts on this?
Nintendo also updates their own infrastructure backend to new firmware conditions and keysigns. So you can release it, but then everyone will get themselves banned from the online community and future software will be coded to not work without the correct keysigns and more. Some will no doubt even find ways to brick their consoles trying to do old-FW installs.
...So what do you gain here?
but you dont know whats possible with this bug. lets wait and see
im happy i stayed on 3.0.0
Totally enjoy waiting. Remember when the PS4 was cracked at 1.76? Still waiting on that?but you dont know whats possible with this bug. lets wait and see
im happy i stayed on 3.0.0

wow you sound really entitled and annoying
I bought my switch 3 days ago and it came with 2.3.0.Question... I still haven't bought a Switch. I will do it soon.
What firmware does the console comes? 1.0? I remember reading back in march that the console came with a day 1 update.
I really doubt that. I think Nintendo learned their lesson. If it's anything like the Vita, you'll be stuck with the old games.homebrew > games

It's not worth it this early on. Loads of Switch games are coming. The Vita is in a similar situation, but to a lesser degree since it's actually at the end of its life. Games are still being released, though.

Nintendo's bug bounty explicitly forbids you from doing this. I would assume that you have to sign a contract in order to get paid, at which point it becomes legally binding.What if i report a big bad bug to Nintendo. And then Ninty patches it in FW 3.02. But before they do i tell Users to stay on 3.01 and then once Ninty pushes the new FW i then release/leak the exploit to the community.
