Im going to buy a nintendo switch as soon as freeshop comes out on it. I know that homebrew exists which is neat but whats the state of freeshop? Any news on it?
Couple things:
1. CFW isn’t out yet
2. Piracy is not allowed to be discussed on this board.
3. If you buy a switch when piracy comes out, you won’t be able to exploit it because it will be the new Mariko versions.
G’day

You won't get freeshop on switch. The online servers and authentication/verification is very different on switch, so you won't be downloading games directly from the eshop for free.
Nothing. Switch homebrew is in its infancy. You won't be seeing something like freeshop (or if it's even possible) for a very long time. You should also hurry and buy a Switch right now and keep it in the firmware it's on because there's most likely going to be a new hardware revision of the Switch that's going to be released soon that will take away a certain vulnerability that every current Switches have right now. So if you want to hack it in the near future, you should get one as soon as you can.

State of freeShop: It's not happening. Ever. There is no way to make it happen.
Of course, there will probably be piracy sites and the equivalent of FBI for the Switch, but there won't be a freeShop.

Here's the deal... You clearly didn't use the search functions or look at the stickied posts before making this thread. There will be a custom firmware, there will be homebrew capabilities, and these things have set release dates. But piracy and applications like freeloader are purely speculative until we get CFW. So please read the stickied post and research before creating new threads on topics that are purely speculative and easily answered with a little effort on your part.

Are you sure piracy is not allowed to be discussed? because I'm pretty sure this constitutes a discussion about piracy and this is the first place on the net I learned how to pirate stuff. So...yeah.

I'll never understand why ppl blurt out they pirate its suppose to be an anonymous sort of thing....
Since when? Do you know what forum your on?
Piracy LINKS are not allowed to be posted but people can freely express their opinions about piracy.
Because nobody cares. Nintendo doesn't exactly have secret agents reading every post on this forum, assassinating people talking about using freeshop. They mainly target the distributors and enablers of piracy, not the pirates.
Nintendo doesn't need to track down pirates in such a tedious manner anyway. The devices phone home incriminating data. As displayed by the Pokemon SunMoon ban wave and the "spotpass" ban wave, Nintendo has ways to find hacked consoles and knock them out if they wanted to.
Freeshop? who needs freeshop when I have Green Luma STEAM running on my Switch and now I can play all my PC games on my switch at over 100FPS no matter what game, this is POWER from the GODS.............(JOKING 
).
I think you won't see Freeshop on the Switch or it might eventually appear in the LOOONG future, but I think that involves too much black hacking and I don't think Nintendo will like it...
Most likely something like backups hosted from some server that connects to a Switch homebrew app could appear, but who the hell would run a service like that 4 free and risk prison?

People on here get their tits in a twist about piracy....99% of users on here have pirated SOMETHING in their life....if you have ever downloaded an MP3 from the internet of non-royalty free music, you've pirated music. Or more likely on this forum, if you have ever downloaded a ROM for an emulator (which seems to be the number one requested homebrew for systems is emulators) then you've pirated games. Just because the games are old Nintendo or Sega ROMs, doesn't mean it's "freeware". It even states on Nintendo's own website: https://www.nintendo.com/corp/legal.jsp#roms
Can I Download a Nintendo ROM from the Internet if I Already Own the Authentic Game?
There is a good deal of misinformation on the Internet regarding the backup/archival copy exception. It is not a "second copy" rule and is often mistakenly cited for the proposition that if you have one lawful copy of a copyrighted work, you are entitled to have a second copy of the copyrighted work even if that second copy is an infringing copy. The backup/archival copy exception is a very narrow limitation relating to a copy being made by the rightful owner of an authentic game to ensure he or she has one in the event of damage or destruction of the authentic. Therefore, whether you have an authentic game or not, or whether you have possession of a Nintendo ROM for a limited amount of time, i.e. 24 hours, it is illegal to download and play a Nintendo ROM from the Internet.

All it says is they don't condone piracy, meaning posting or asking for links to copyrighted files and/or sites that host copyrighted files. This is how GBATemp keeps the site from being shutdown by not having any copyrighted files/links hosted on the site. Piracy is allowed to be discussed though. Go ask a mod if you think otherwise.gbatemp.net/help said:

Because piracy is just a name given to copying files without paying for them, which is subjectively ethical.
If you actually read and understand what you quoted, it states you can't link to it discuss about places to get warez. It does not say you can't talk about piracy in general, and OP wasnt asking for warez either so the post is not breaking forum rules.

I know, I literally stated that in my post "meaning posting or asking for links to copyrighted files and/or sites that host copyrighted files."
That wasn't aimed at the OP either, it was to everyone in this thread that keeps saying we can't discuss piracy because we can, we just can't ask or share links that contain copyrighted files
Ah, then I apologize. I guess I kinda saw it as you saying OP was doing that. Sorry about that
Edit: I see what happened. I quoted the wrong post
