Well I can believe that someone could be mistaken about 7.0.1 vs 8.0.1. Both of them would require an update at least to use online, and you'd have a hard time checking if you updated. Bit harder to be wrong about 8.1 if you connect online.
I've bought the new switch in germany some days ago with these properties:
Firmware: 7.0.1
Model: HAC-001(-01)
Serial No.: XKJ1000XXXXXXXX
XKW is for america, other regions have XKJ.Weird, according to Nintendo the new switches start with the serial XKW
not even that, this new switch uses a brand new bootrom, meaning that no exploit discovered works here, even on vulnerable versionsAs of now no unless it comes on firmware 4.1 or lower.
What is the progress of tx on hacking the patched switches from july 2018....how will we get an updateI'm still waiting for TX to release their "exploit" on ipatched units (from July2018). it's been a year now.
