███ ██      Wow its Game 100 release time, and boy did we pick one       ██ ███
█▓█ ██         this XCI is different than all the others so far          ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██           how can that be you wonder, well let's begin            ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██             first we have a new Partition on the Cart             ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██              previously its was Update.Normal.Secure              ██ █▓█
███ ██               this one is Update.Logo.Normal.Secure               ██ ███
███ ██         this new Partition Logo contains a Plaintext Logo         ██ ███
███ ██    so guessing this means they want to go after people hosting    ██ ███
███ ██                    and file a copyright claim                     ██ ███
█▓█ ██         Secondly the Normal Partition is Completely Blank         ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██  still there but Blank, assuming this is the force the new ASIC   ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██                  so no displaying on <4.x Firms                   ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██                                                                   ██ █▓█
███ ██                 so that sums up this strange XCI                  ██ ███
███ ██            Switch tools will need to update to support            ██ ███
███ ██                                                                   ██ ███
███ ██                now onto the 100th release present                 ██ ███
█▓█ ██    we are still astounded we are the only Scene group dumping     ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██          though I guess it made this release come faster          ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██              and it's not the last boring master Key              ██ █▓█
█▓█ ██                          so enjoy these                           ██ █▓█

Keyblob
There are 32 keyblobs written to NAND at factory, with each keyblob encrypted with a console-unique key derived from the console's SBK, the console's tsec key, and a constant specific to each keyblob.
Despite being encrypted with console unique keys, though, the decrypted keyblob contents are shared for all consoles.

Can't tell what this would be used for, but good job anyways to BBB, seems like they're working with some of the other exploit teams to get the info or something.

 

[tommasi]

So what happens when you release key number 32?

 

[SirNapkin1334]

So what happens when you release key number 32?

WIN.

 

[InsaneNutter]

So what happens when you release key number 32?

You need 388 more keys for 420.

Try searching up the titles of the games in quotes in Google. e.g. "Bayonetta.JPN.NSW-BigBlueBox"

EDIT: Use a less popular game because if you do it will pop up for one of the first results.

Didn't work for me unfortunately. Only some NFO db's that came up.

I can't help but feel like nintendo is still not investing enough into security. Sure the tegra itself was faulty, but the shared keyblobs here feels like another nintendo screw up.

An infinite of nerds given an infinite amount of switches will eventually pirate and homebrew every bit of the nand.

Looks like a Nintendo Switch flash cart will soon be a reality after a good while or so I hope ^^

I'm quite sure we won't see a flashcart for a Switch. But a backup-launched should be a thing in 2-3 weeks.

It may still be possible with CFW though. Launch into an emuNAND which gives the cart slot TZ to launch games. Probably a lot of development for the card makers to make that happen though, so it depends on what their profit margin would look like before it was even a thought.

 

[PhyChris]

how fast is the game card slot? if its faster then nand then no backup loaders

 

[tyrran]

how fast is the game card slot? if its faster then nand then no backup loaders

If I remember from comparisons between load times, the game card slot is noticably slower than the microSD load and slower still from the internal memory. I honestly cannot see the appeal of a flash cart in light of the current movement of the scene.

 

[MrJason005]

lol a flashcart

 

[cashboxz01]

It honestly doesn't even matter. Look at how easy piracy is on the 3DS. Despite that, more than enough customers are buying games. Heck, if anything piracy helps sales of high quality games. The only losers are the devs who make crappy games like motion picture based games from the mid-2000's (ie: Mean Girls, King Kong, etc.). I mean, which Pokemon fan wouldn't buy a copy of Pokemon? Srs
