Hi, so I haven't been around since 6.2.0 FW was newly released.
I was planning to do the "risky" method of updating my Switch to 10.2.0 (basically do an official update, then stick in a jig and hold Vol+ right before it reboots).
But I read somewhere 9.0.0 introduced a new GC update, that "burns" a GC fuse.
So I have some questions (mostly for @Draxzelex who knows everything I am talking about, and I think still keeps up with everything Switch-modding-related).
- I read on the Hekate release page that "NOGC" is disabled on stock. If I enabled NOGC (to preserve my "GC fuse"), is that a known ban risk?
- Would I even need to enable it? If I boot into stock (to play online on Sysnand on OFW), will it "burn my GC fuse" if I didn't insert a cartridge?
Also, am I correct to assume that the following are all still considered low-risk (i.e. no real evidence that people have been banned just for that)
- AutoRCM enabled
- fuse count mismatch (preserved fuses, check bypassed by booting stock/OFW in Hekate)
- and playing on EmuNAND (I'm using SX OS) on the same SD card as OFW SysNAND
---
EDIT: After a bit more searching, it seems you can't even enable NOGC on stock anymore without hanging

Not sure if this is still the case on 10.2.0... so I have no choice but to burn my "GC fuses" if I wanna play online on stock?
