    Hardware Switch 2 Boardview

    This is very cool, and useful to me personally since FlexBV is not available for my platform.

    Switch 2 Motherboard scans

    fwiw I heard the person who produced the scans chose not to be named. But whoever it was, they did an excellent job - they're the cleanest board scans I've ever seen, practically flawless. That's no mean feat considering it's a complex 12 layer board.

    Hacking Why can't Nintendo realize that the BEST thing about their consoles is moddability?

    > Why can't Nintendo realize that the BEST thing about their consoles is moddability? Because it isn't. The best thing about Nintendo consoles is they have cool games which make Nintendo lots of money.

    Hardware Be careful with third party cables. Friend was just banned for using a USB C to HDMI Cable. It was flashed with a custom FW to work with the Switch 2.

    They're probably all made in the same factory. If it works with the same firmware it's effectively the same device.

    Hardware Be careful with third party cables. Friend was just banned for using a USB C to HDMI Cable. It was flashed with a custom FW to work with the Switch 2.

    Multiple reddit users report success with these cables: https://old.reddit.com/r/switch2/comments/1lrs7mh/hagibis_switch_2_dock_hdmi_cable_for_only_20/ Reddit OP was last active ~40 mins ago and I think we'd have heard about it if their switch got banned by now.

    NEBULAS2 Has entered the pre development phase

    I think you forgot to commit the rest of it, I just see a 3-line text file. (By the way, I'd recommend looking up the meaning of "release candidate")

    Updates on NebulaOS for Switch 2

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Do_not_resuscitate I'm assuming OP meant NDA but that would be equally nonsensical given it's a public announcement.

    Can artemis engine exploit be ported to switch 2 ?

    The beauty of fault injection is that you don't need any software bugs. The Switch 2's early boot stages are presumably hardened against fault injection, but a) that doesn't make it impossible b) early-boot isn't the only place FI could be useful. Practical Switch 2 exploits, if they ever...

    Can artemis engine exploit be ported to switch 2 ?

    I haven't looked into it, but plausibly yes. But userland entrypoints are just that, entrypoints. You need the rest of the exploit chain for it to be any use from an end-user pov. From a research perspective it's best to keep such things private until there's something practical to do with it...

    Will the Switch 2 be Nintendo's first unhackable console?

    Why would you say this (correct statement!) and then go on to link a "source" that is not that at all? Those SwitchTools posts are just switch2brew articles ran through ChatGPT.

    bad news, I yelled at my switch too hard and now it won't turn on
