You said it right, generally... But we never know when they go too far...
Reminds me of M$ with the profile corruption and shitz that they only stop until they lost on court so they updated the console and gave all features back on a banned console
In fact I wouldnt even be surprised if later Nintendo adds a check flag for locking offline connection between banned Switches after one of them is banned so that local gaming gets locked, I bet a lot of ppl would run buy another one and never connect it online ever again so they can play local between friend's switches...
Lol they can’t, it’s against lawYou said it right, generally... But we never know when they go too far...

Nothing is against the law if you accepted their ToS. Actually one clause of the ToS is that you give up your right to sue Nintendo and can only use arbitration.
why they can't? because of being afraid loosing on court? I hope they never do some shit like that later on a newer FW...
Though even if they did most likely with a CFW we could probably bypass it likt the crap M$ local ping limit which sucked so much on the X360, but after hacking we could bypass it.

Been doing just that. Actually I had CFW connect to wifi once without realizing it shared internet connections with OFW. Immediately turned it off without loading a game, and updated everything via OFW. No ban here.
Those "no sue" clauses are notoriously difficult to enforce, but save yourself the hassle and don't bother. Nearly everyone would lose. Using unique certs for practically every shread of content makes it easy for them to prove their actions just, so they have every right to protect their partners intellectual property via their platform security.
You'd literally have to pull a rabbit out of a hat by proving you own the cartridge with the cert that you were banned for using to have any chance of winning such litigation.
In the same way you'll be kicked out of a restaurant for being offensive to staff, regardless of whether you've finished a meal you may have already paid for, they can block you from accessing their network.
The fact that they appear to be allowing banned parties re-download previous purchases via the web is a good-guy move to be honest.

Its against the law to cripple the hdd of customers because of banning the console, thats what microsoft did and that is illegal, they can remove you from their services but they cannot damage your console
SX OS v1.1 allows users to properly inject certificates/headers into their dumps to use them online. However, this may cause you to get banned so use at your own discretion.
Not everyone wealthy like you. Honestly though. I do support the fact that people are paying the developers. Of course, but I also see the world differently. They do deserve the money but i feel like the poor people like myself should get to experience the art these developers created. I love Mario games but i can't afford them games. If i was wealthy i would of paid. Then there's also creators who develop games and animations like a boss and get zero money. This is why I don't feel all too guilty because not everyone can even get a cent for their amazing creation. This is my personal reason. Sorry for saying ''lol you actually pay for games'' but I'm glad there's still people like you O:

Did you use LayeredFS in any capacity? If so, you may be one of the few who have been banned with SX OS only.
Try to avoid going online at all costs until we know it is safe. Theoretically, you can load backups in CFW then switch to OFW to update them but we cannot say that the Switch logs in crucial data when it is in CFW that can be transmitted when the Switch is in OFW and connects online.

TwoSpikedHands:
yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
