well lets assume that they are dumping their own games, v0 (moddable with jig) ANY FW
v1 (patched, but not redbox) 1.0.0-4.1.0
v2 (redbox/lite) 1.0.0-4.1.0, even thought i've never seen any redbox or lite with those fws
Even on redbox / lite units you wouldn't be able to hack them on fw 1.0.0-4.1.0 to enable piracy. All current methods of launching cfw use warmboot hax which expoits a bug baked in to the hardware (patched on redbox units). You could load homebrew via nspwn but that would need fw 3.0.0, which as you said can't run on redbox units.

@ameyy If you're looking to buy a console, get an unpatched v1. V2s need a hardware mod that is difficult to find these days. If you do decided to go for a v2, you will need an SX Core but the people who made it have been arrested so you'll find one hard to source.

Mariko devices aren’t capable of running anything below 6.0.0 :shrek:

There is no such thing as "v1" or "v2". There are Erista units, which come either patched or unpatched, and Mariko devices. Unpatched Erista units can be hacked regardless of firmware but patched Erista units have a firmware-specific softmod that only works up to firmware 4.1. Both Mariko and patched Erista units can be hacked via the SX Core modchip but that requires not only soldering but finding a reseller.

What? You don't type "Erista switch" into ebay lol. You type in v1 or v2, and then the switches pop up. Not everyone knows the codenames for the switches.
Does this look like eBay to you? No? Okay then. Not even Nintendo uses that terminology. If someone were to use the term "red box" or something similar, then I can understand because the Mariko boxes are distinctively red. Furthermore, "Erista" and "Mariko" are not even the actual codenames of those respective consoles. The actual codenames aren't used for whatever reason but most likely due to the terms "Erista" and "Mariko" being more acceptable.

"free games after already owning the game"? Well, if you own the game, just play it normally on your OFW... [emoji849]
