Yeah there's no ROM on nand because the ROM it's on the binary code apparently...
Anyway, OP's a liar, move on, nothing to see here. << i guess i should have been more specific
That's from http://switchbrew.org/index.php?title=Flog#Official_Launch
Someone pulled battery on 3.0.0 Switch with no luck: https://twitter.com/David3141593/status/910233743998226432
really .. he made some shit up that turned out to be true ... ??
So the thing has now been figured out?
I saw a video of a guy supposedly using the Joycons with the Golf game onscreen, but who knows at this point xD

HOLY S*** I WAS RIGHT
Before plutoo :o

Seems it uses cached network time, so if you ever connected your Switch online it can't be fooled. Have to wait till next July to play it :( https://t.co/D54M0fjGYD

Official Launch:
The checks for this only run while Home Menu is active, aka main-menu.
It checks exactly the following:
The checks for this only run while Home Menu is active, aka main-menu.
It checks exactly the following:
- Both Joy-Cons must be detached from the system.
- The same motion checks for both Joy-Cons must pass, at the same time. The motion seems to be a reference to this. Hold the Joy-Cons pointing forwards/downwards, then move Joy-Cons to a vertical position, and hold it there for a bit. The Joy-Con grip can be used for this.
- The month+day must match the date of Iwata’s death: July 11. The loaded date originates from network-time-sync’d time, regardless of whether the user has it enabled or not. When the system was never connected to the Internet, it comes from the user-specified date instead.
- The output from a certain function must return 0, 1, or 2. On one system this was tested with, this check would pass.
- Lastly a nsam cmd is used. Probably to verify that the title is installed?
Here's my only issue with this, these machines can't be magic. If there's no energy to the system, no matter what type of file it's cached on disk, it can never know what the true time is relative to the current time... right?
There is no RTC battery on board. https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/Nintendo+Switch+Teardown/78263#s156388
It must be using the actual Switch battery. I wonder if leaving it disconnected for an extended period would do the trick? I wonder if earlier twitter user wasn't disconnected long enough. Hitting the power button helps too.
So the OP is a phony then? Since he said he had recently accessed the e-shop before accidentally launching Flog?
Or he happened to do it precisely on July 11th?

Those are the rules of the forum.
English likely is the universal language nowadays, nothing we can do about it. Nice to see an spanish speaker bro out there.
By the way you wrote, I can assume you are from Argentina, right?
That's actually fairly surprising, the system likely leaves battery left to keep the console alive for a while. That being said it'll be impossible to drain that too, they recharge themselves too!
But! By disconnecting the battery for a while, the Switch would/should lose track of it's "relative" date.
Then it should either ignore/delete the cache or just use the cache as an incorrect offset from some default manufacturing date. If it uses it as an incorrect offset, that probably wouldn't get us any closer...
I guess it's also possible that the Switch is "aware" enough that time can't go backwards, and once it sees an Internet time it will never go any lower than that... but that seems like making a time tracking system fairly complicated for little payoff, except to prevent this easter egg.

i have that stupid connector on my gpu luckily it's only a 300w gpu so i should(?) be fine since all the issues are with the quad 8pin->12pin and mine is only dual 8pin

quite a tight bend on that 8pin->12pin adapter in my case, which is the worst case scenario, but i made sure it was fully seated after plugging everything in and bending the cable so it shouldn't come unseated by itself since i pre-stressed the cable
