Whether lurking on an older firmware, banned from online activities, or unwilling to fork out for Nintendo's Switch Online, a lot of us find ourselves stuck in the void of single-player gaming. The release of switch-lan-play opened doors previously closed, allowing us to play a select list of games online regardless of bans and subscriptions. Taking another step forwards, we have ldn_mitm: a custom kip to break the final chains, to allow almost every game supporting local wireless to be enjoyed online.

Requirements:

1. Atmosphère 0.8.0+ SXOS 2.5 Beta+
   
2. switch-lan-play (setup guide)
3. ldn_mitm

How to Use (Atmosphere):

1. Download the zip from the release pages.
2. Extract the zip to your sd card,
3. Boot up Atmosphere with fusee primary.bin
4. Start your game of choice, and select local wireless play
5. (Optional) Use official Switch-lan-play discord to match make and find other players,

How to Use (SXOS):

1. Download the latest SXOS. Here
   
2. Go to SX Menu then to options.
   
3. Enable ldn_mitm,
4. Go in-game and select the Wireless Play Option (If you see an L in your WiFi bars that means that the kip did not load and that you need to reboot)

You can find a list of currently tested games here.


It is recommended to only use ldn_mitm and lan-play.exe from their official releases, third-party apps and homebrew are not supported.

Awesome... Need to use XCI to be completely safe tho. Not risking using NSP, NO WAY.

 

[lordelan]

alright , but can i use this if i never did log an account into my switch ?

If this uses the local wireless feature, no account is needed.

It should work as long as you and your "friends" have the same game version (aka the same update installed).

What is the difference from switch lan play, 1 mounth ago?

 

[slaphappygamer]

Finally. Now I can rest in peace.

Please, TX, steal this asap!

If they don’t implement this, this will be THE reason to switch from using sx os.

It redirects the Switch-to-Switch wireless protocol to work over the network, whereas lan-play by itself only accepts communication from the few games that have a dedicated LAN mode.

This is awesome, thank you.

Gotta use 90dns for that.

Can you use 90dns with this at the same time?

 

[GameSystem]

This is exactly what I hoped for since the beginning. I thank you for your service.

 

[Slim45]

will you be updating this for atmo 8.1 or kosmos?

 

[Xyphoseos]

Can anyone be more precise to explain me what is the kip ? I have just understood that this kip allow better online for banned/low firmware console

 

[0000ff]

Can you use 90dns with this at the same time?

Yes its recommended to use 90dns to block nintendo "stuff",

Has 6.2.0 been confirmed safe to use with 90dns? Or should I stick with 6.1.0 for now?

 

[The Real Jdbye]

Wow, awesome news. We can finally play Super Mario Party online properly

This really was the last step. Now it really doesn't matter to be banned.
Nintendo Cloud Saves (not for all games by the way)? -> We have checkpoint.
Nintendo Online NES? -> We have RetroArch.
Nintendo Online Gaming? We have ldn_mitm.

It's more of a hassle, but for those that don't mind that, I guess it's good enough.
It will always be easier to find players on the official servers though, and not everyone is willing to hack their Switch in order to play with a friend that's banned, so it's more limited in that sense. Still pretty awesome though.

Nothing is confirmed safe,
You should expect a ban if you use homebrew/cfw/go online/

Is this the 12-05 kip?

 

[uludag]

Welp, for the time being it's time to say goodbye to SX OS.

phew.. too many poor people still saying "this cfw's better!" or "that cfw's better!"
why not mature and develope greater things together?

 

[Cubuss]

Is this the 12-05 kip?

Nope use the newest one from the github release page,
