Ello all, newbie to Switch here :3
Recently got my device, it's running 2.3.0.
I've not updated to 3.0.1 yet as per a friend who had been more closely following development on homebrew stuff then I when I purchased my gear said to avoid.
This said I've a few questions.
Is there anyway to link my nintendo ID without updating?
Is there anyway to access the eShop without linking IDs?
Can games in offline mode be played without a ID linked?
Does the DNS swap that allows access to the eShop I read about earlier in this thread even still work?
I currently own a copy of Splatoon 2 but have not opened it yet after learning all the things about the firmware an what not from my friend..
I'm told it has a offline/solo campaign of sorts but I've no idea how limited that is or how far it might allow someone to develop their inkling for when they do eventually venture to online play.
I'm considering returning it and getting Breath of the Wild; though I heard some of the updates are DLC ish and require eShop access which seems to require a ID linked and of course being DLC $.
I posted this one in the "how to update your game cart without updating your system" thread but as its involving my curiosity of the function around the system I'm gonna ask it here as well.
Has anyone had issues with their game after updating just the game?
Examples:
- Has it updated the firmware version it checks before allowing you to play?
- Has the firmware update on the cart been updated and thus tries to get you to install the new version?
Quite excited towards the potential this device has once we get it unchained lol
Few homebrew app wishes of mine would be.
A browser or adblock browser plugin.
A text/pdf/epub reader with image file support.
Some kind of art/doodling app with layers and easy export/import.. though I don't know if the system has "pressure" sensitivity for use with standard "dumb" tablet stylus. (basic ones like the 3DS had.) but still a girl can dream lol.
Everything after those is gravy.
