Homebrew Question [POLL] What do you want from Nintendo Switch Homebrew?

[DarthDub]

A proper media player with mkv support.

 

[Deleted-355425]

kodi would be cool.

 

[PatrickJr]

Emulators would be pretty cool , <3. I also would like to see custom news notifications c:

and tbh id like piracy too

It'd be cool if on the news section you could get tweet/reddit notifications or even custom RSS Feeds

 

[lordelan]

That's what I want in the order of importance for me:

1. RetroArch
2. save manager
3. a way to play >3.0.0 games on my 3.0.0 Switch
4. eShop access on 3.0.0 (via some kind of NNU Patcher)
5. KODI (to consume things from my NAS) or at least any other media player to begin with
6. FW spoofing to play MK8D online while being on 3.0.0
7. a way to use hard drives to expand the memory at least in dock mode
8. a way to run Android apps (either by dual booting into Android or by some kind of Android framework for Switch OS)
9. themes
10. backup loader (something like Loadiine)

Believe me or not but I really don't care for loading backups aka piracy that much for now.
I know you might count RetroArch as piracy as well but I wouldn't buy VC games anyway so Nintendo isn't missing any money from me here.

Well I was thinking about starting this thread and used the search function first (yes, I'm sooo smart ...) and since homebrew is still just about to really start now I guess it's alright to necrobump this.

good ideas!, i honestly forgot about kodi and i use it like crazy sometimes i want a youtube badly

 

[Kioku]

Old school shooters with proper motion controls.

 

[Yonatan]

I would love to have emulators on the go. It’s sick

I'd prefer Plex more than Kodi

 

[X2XO]

Being able to undub games is what matters the most to me.
Having save managers would be great too.

 

[lordelan]

I'd prefer Plex more than Kodi

I could live with both
But KODI covers so many things.

Amusing to see emulators and piracy listed separately.
Yes, emulators are legal. But there ain't no way you're dumping your own SNES ROMs.

There are plenty of people who dump their own ROMs. Most people download them. I'd like to think that a lot of those people at least only download games that they own.

 

[HaloEliteLegend]

I don't want to miss out on any new features in future updates, so I'm ambivalent for now. At least until the system has all its features. It took the 3DS a while to get all of its features.
After that, if there is any way to legitly purchase the latest games (no piracy for me), both physical and eShop, and get features like save management or mods, that'd be great.

That's why I wrote this. If you call me a pirat nonetheless I guess I would have to live with that.

Yeah, there are totally so many companies earning money from their Snes games. Oh wait. Well, gee, if the tools to dump ROMs weren't so sodding expensive...

If you actually think that you are only fooling yourself. From what I've seen, a majority of the games that a majority of rom users have they do not own. Back in high school we passed around full rom sets. I even remember halo CE got passed around and we had lan parties when there was a substitute. Most people there didn't even own the system they were emulating, let alone games for it. I'd be willing to bet that everyone who uses emulation has emulated games and systems they don't own.

switch is going to be the new PSP... the perfect emulation device!

The saddest part is that I don't see any thing that mentions original content. All I see are things that can be used to bypass restrictions set by wanting homebrew.
What happened to the original games? What happened to wanting to boot into the HBL and seeing 50 different, unique, fun games to play?
