But two people have upgrade and no fuse was blown. So I think I lean against them.Folks in the Reswitched Discord are saying 7.0.1->8.0.0 did burn a fuse.
Though I don't see this info reflected on Swithbrew yet.
@Sabishinbo
You can downgrade from 8.0.0 to 7.0.1, but if you burned a new fuse for 8.0.0, you'll need to boot with hekate or any other custom bootloader that ignores fuse checks.
Otherwise your switch will not boot.
No it doesn’t I’ve turned off automatic software update in system settings so it has to be updated manually clicking on it but it still says update ready in settings under the units firmware status.
They do release the big update for Smash today. So it's maybe just time until they lock it down.
To be fair this is the first update I have ever noticed online feature access on a new pending update. I’m not sure why Nintendo have allowed this to go ahead unless they know it’s not necessary to worry about a forced update from 7.0.1 to 8.0 for online use I’m thinking they must know something we don’t I cannot see Nintendo allowing this go ahead without good reason.
Don't expect Cuphead (or a new Smash update) to run on 7.x if installed from the eshop. They might work on 7.x if installed from nsp with "ignore firmware" or even re-encrypted with old masterkey (if they don't use new sdk), but not if installed legit.
Alright, how do I do that? I dont want to lose my save files, and my last NAND backup was like 6.01, when I first got my switch.
For some reason 8.0 didn't burn a fuse, so you can downgrade to 7.0.1 and it'll work as if you'd never updated. Wouldn't matter for booting cfw anyway tho as fuse check is skipped.
