First look at the Nintendo Switch DevMenu

oh shit

64GB of internal memory ? :o

Dev Units usually have Extra Specs like an extra gig or so of RAM and also more internal storage, For example the PS Vita Dev Kit has 1GB of RAM while the actual retail console has 512MB
This is usually for Debugging purposes

Ow, I didn't know that :o

Thank you

You'll probably find the Dev Unit has 6GB of RAM (Because 5GB is kind've a bit unusual for anything really)

So how do we access this, and I want to see what settings are behind that Network button... Like the software cap for speed.

 

[DarkIrata]

Well not really a first look. But yeah, cool to see

 

[MK73DS]

One of the screenshot (on the hackinformer) shows an option to overclock CPU, does that mean that the Switch is capable to run at full speed even undocked ? (Or is that another dev unit thing ?)

I would dare to guess that it's only available to devs due to console heat while working at higher clocks (even if it isn't actual overclock, only using the docked specs). Devs would be instructed to not hold the console while using this option, the final user wouldn't care about the warning if it's available to retail consoles.

You probably can't. I find it very unlikely that the dev menu is in any form included in the normal retail firmware. Only option would be to obtain a legit dev kit.

There were some pic already posted here few weeks ago. (so it's not the "first look", but I didn't see the debug menu yet)
maybe hackinformer have them too, but I can't check (adblock message, to lazy to disable mine)

Spoiler

I'm sure we will get it eventualy, the scene always does.

 

[Xyphoseos]

hackers can access to the dev mode !?

 

[Noroxus]

this seems to be an actual dev switch, therefore no one can say if the hacker bois can access it yet. havent heard anything about that 3.0.0 exploit for quite a while either

 

[Jayro]

I just wanna remove the network cap of 50mb/s.

 

[Halvorsen]

Well, second look, as it was leaked by Nintendo themselves, but yeah, nice.

 

[DuoForce]

Fun fact! We once saw the DevMenu in a switch trailer by accident, I shit you not!

That actually looks pretty nice.
