OP
Lets say that the Switch got hacked. What do you want from Switch Homebrew? Answer the poll above, or comment below if you chose Other. I'm not working with Hackers or Nintendo. I just want to see peoples opinions. (for god's sake, please don't ask when or how the switch gets hacked.) I chose Save Managers. [Delete this thread if it's a duplicate or against the rules.]

Save Managers and Cheat Programs. Because I prefer supporting the devs while the system's cycle is in it's prime. But considering my low-income background, I'd like to be able to screw around in games I'm going to be playing for a long while, doing whacky stuff within reason (No cheating in Splatoon 2 Online, for example, but unbreakable weapons in BotW, why the hell not?)

Welcome to almost the exact wording of what my post would be.

Emulators, but there was no option on the poll for a media player, and no, I don't want to use a network/streaming, like being able to load MP4 and FLAC audio files with an XMB interface, heck, even a port of Foobar2000 would be nice. Emulators since Nintendo's being stupid about the VC.

i personally would like the ability to develop a program for my business, without having to officially sign up to be a developer with nintendo, i would base the system around HLS in HTML5 player or MPEG-Dash depending on what we can accomplish, and then deliver streaming content of our choice to the system. with a login system, this is pretty much the main stuff i want to be able to do, and sure emulation would be cool for older consoles. but piracy isnt really on the top of the list for me, if i could continue to buy the cartridges without updating the firmware. and just update the game directly.. i dunno who gives a shit i guess. ill maybe get like 4-5 games for this console in the forseeable future i dont mind paying for those. but having it open for apps and new concepts and ideas.. this is what homebrew should be about. :)

Emulators and themes. I like customization and I like being able to play any game I own physically without buying it again. Maybe when pokemon comes out, I would like patching so I could have rom hacks but thats not as important to me.

    Plus all bios are set up and usually includes at least 128gbs or 64
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah but if your main goal is just to play n64 and GameCube you can save about $50 and have the portability option

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    True, but on 2 monitors at 4k. Its just want you want really, to each they own.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    For a kids aspect Anbernic would be the better option they'd probably melt over the price on a good 4k display

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    For that texasroo guy, I'd recommend the Spell and speak as his first system.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    So they buy a pi5 kit for about $150 and say a 28" 4k display probably looking around $400 total
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They'll be getting in the territory of portable Pcs anyway

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Again you get what you pay for, its like buying a S series for $300 but its only 1440p native, if you want true 4k, gotta get the X model for $500. But yea you right, when moms buying it anyways, you gotta stay cheap.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    They could use HD out on their TV no real need for a monitor these days tbh the purists will disagree
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I'm kind of phasing out on the need for wanting all these consoles cool to have but they just become dust build ups
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I here ya there, I have too many myself, and have hard time letting them go, since most of mine I've modded at some point. Anymore I just play Switch on the go, seriesx at home.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    ack my throat
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I need to invest in some storage totes tbh
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tots?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Tootles? Wtf
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Oh tootles
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Oh totes , lol, like Tupperware storage, I gotcha
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I'm designing my own entertainment cabinet for my man cave, to store all my systems, then I'm also designing a power supply/HDMI switcher so I can switch to whichever system I want, and power it also. Already picked up the cabinet board, but tinkering with my drawings before start
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    But yea, I have frogger arcade cabinet that I gutted and put a Pi4 then Pi5 into, but it never gets played much anymore, should sell it. Even when the kids come over, they don't want to play on it, just the xbox. TMNT and Simpson's arcade is still so fun on it, esp w 2 players.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Gonna check out the new Garfield looks like garbage
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Can't wait to see the new "stick" that can actually play Ps3 or 360 games. I know they are getting close.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty didn't you see the new garfield?
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Ah it's all animated I was hoping for some live action
