It seems that TX has found a way to modify the latest Switch consoles, including the newly released Lite

Since the new 'red box' Mariko units appeared, people have been asking when will it be possible to run CFW on it, well today MaxConsole was in touch with trusted TX reseller, that been given some advance news on a new solution that is coming soon, and that it infact works on all new Switch models, not just the 'patched' ones, but even the 'mariko', and 'lite' models as well, see below what they mentioned:

TX has recently taken the time to demonstrate to us some of their Work-In-Progress. Notably for 'patched' and 'mariko' units which is very advanced, and works flawlessly. We were not given a firm date or prices yet, but knowing TX we know the price will be very reasonable. We also saw early beta for Switch Lite console as well.

So that above is great news, and we will have more in the coming weeks, as we have requested to get an early sample from the trusted TX reseller, so that we can share more info with our loyal readers, on how TX's new solution works and what is involved and pics of course!

Curious this information has to be relayed by a reseller as opposed to TX themselves...

I'll believe it when I see it...

That would be really stupid since we are likely to get a Pro model in a year or two and if they really found an exploit they shouldn't put it out so Ninty can fix it before they release their Pro models.

They should wait instead.
Apart from that: Impressive that they found a solution (if they really did).

The pro model is probably a supercharged , properly cooled dock.
And FYI scires did not hack a new model switch at all, just forced share an update.

I suspect the Pro model will be enough of a [hardware] change that any existing exploits wouldn't work anyways. Doesn't mean there won't be another one found!

I'd still prefer they hold it close to the vest just in case but the pro will have alot of attention given either way whenever it does release. I guess this is good for those who want switch lites or the new Switch with better battery life.

Why the negativity gees you guys should be f ing PUMPED UP like all models hackable this truley is front page worthy and its going help out lots who had to buy
used upatched models or going to various game shops and asking can you tell me the serial number lmfao atleast 2 told me no lololol....

Great f ing news regardless if you dont respect txs selling tactics... its heaven for switch lovers if it comes to frutition....

I don't have the wording to hand, apologies for any inaccuracy, but they certainly implied making progress.

They posted a video, but it was quickly debunked and removed. From the video, it appeared that they thought the unit was patched but it actually wasn't. I have screenshots and stuff if you look through my post history (if you actually care enough to look for it lol).

I'm not commenting on this current announcement, just verifying they had made past claims that didn't pan out.

Hum... Is SciresM from TX? https://twitter.com/SciresM/status/1188394271641980929
2 days after his tweet, TX now has a solution too? What a nice coincidence

He did not hack a newer model switch, read the tweet.

Hasn't there been a recent breakthrough regarding switch lite fw 8.1.1 and an exploit found in BOTW?

No, there hasn't.

Switch Lite FW 8.1.1 was simply transferred to a non-lite (hackable) Switch so it could be examined. Not a breakthrough, it's just interesting.

Never heard anything about Breath of the Wild having exploits.

Anyone have proof that TX, DOESN'T have a method to mod ipatched or new Switches?

That's just reversing the question. Extraordinary statements (which this certainly is) demand extraordinary proof (which they haven't provided).

Burden of proof lies on the person making the claim, in this case Team Xecuter.

Prove a negative? Come on now....

Just to clear things up, Xecuter violates Atmosphere's license by using parts of it's code in SX OS without releasing the required source code afterwards. Xecuter also uses various scene homebrew (specifically kips) in the same fashion. They aren't stealing anything. The code is there for anyone to freely use, They are however violating licenses. Xecuter also programs a lot of their own code too. The backup manager, the GUI, various key obtaining methods, etc ... SX OS isn't 100% pure copied code.

However, at the end of the day do you ever ask yourself "How many licenses or laws am I violating when I pirate games"? That applies to both SX OS and Atmosphere users. You're all just a bunch of pirates and the infighting is fucking hilarious. Not a single one of your hold the moral high ground.

Yes, I have undeniable evidence: my reseller told me so.

Its only frontpage worthy if it isn't complete BS. Its a rumor at best at this point and was headlined irresponsibly as if it was fact.

I won't disagree with that. You are 100% right, but that doesn't mean it's fake JUST because people say it is either. People will believe who ever they want, but to just say it's fake with no proof it's fake proves nothing either. I can ask for proof that it's fake if people are going to just say it is with no proof other than quoting DEVs who clearly hate TX anyways and will say any announcement that has to do with them is fake. End of the day it's not even an announcement from TX. It's a post about a leaked email.

Yes, I have undeniable evidence: my reseller told me so.

Right and who is your reseller to me? Why should I believe you and your reseller over an "apparent" TX reseller in an email someone "leaked" on here?

Gary is TX.

I think the point is that you couldn't believe him over Gary or even say you can believe this "leak" is correct, since this entire thread is just baseless speculation and a rehash of an older statement by TX.

 

[Switch_Maniac]

Gary is TX.

and if he is? Where does it say anything about it being Official? It just a link to maxconsole.
