Hacking Best practice for preserving Switch 2 exploitability?

[ertaboy356b]

Nintendo also claimed the 3DS was bulletproof back when it came out, but it's been cracked wide open. No doubt it'll be the most difficult to hack, but someone will figure it out, and I'd bet money the first exploit will require a soldered modchip.

I'm waiting for theFlow to crack it open but the guy doesn't seem interested with Nintendo stuff. It's also extremely risky. The guy singlehandedly revived the Vita scene and brought exploits to recent firmwares for PS4/5.

Give me your switch 2 and I'll preserve it for you.

Some hackers got their hands on Switch2:

1 - MIG Switch tested and it immediately locks out the Switch 2, turning it into a brick, ends up bootlooping.

2 - Testers that prod the flash storage of the rom chip it immediately locks out the Switch 2, turning it into a brick. Switch 2 detects has some weird protection that it can detect voltage changes that tools cause when scaning the chips, even whn it is minor.

Unless an exploit is found and doesn't result into a brick when implemented it wont happen in a long time, I know 3 testers that were working on hardware and software modding and know what they were doing just find that any work immediately bricks it and Nintendo gave a trouble shooting step to reload the firmware from SD card but it stuck in boot looping.

In the end it had to return to Nintendo and they longer allowed to be testers and had to pay for the console otherwise it will go to small claims court as it has some form of internal reporting that unauthorised use was made.

Apparently a another tester had an early access to a game and it crashed and rebooted but no longer worked until a reihnstall of firmware so it may be a sign that an exploit that triggers a reboot to run unsigned code is out of question as the firmware will refuse to run and needs a clean firmware.

Also FYI reinstalling firmware from SD Card is not offline, it is a generic app that only connects to a Nintendo server to get the latest firmware meaning it doesn't allow to install specific firmware version and no longer can be used as a work around.

Best bet is hope for an emulator and a way to dump Switch 2 roms.

This post in particular has gone viral on various websites and YT channels, and not in a good way, as in it makes this community look bad.

apparently thats the rumor, with nvidia hack and mod chips,

I would argue that requiring mod chips for the later revisions would be a valid reason to release it since not everyone wants to go that route. What you can do with the Wii, 3DS, and Wii U is pretty amazing.

I actually got an early Switch 2 for real and can confirm that there is a really intensive security system:

1 - If you want to startup the console you have to cum into the Game Card slot so it can sample your DNA. There's a separate model available for both women and the infertile, I don't have that one yet.
2 - It does a full biometric scan of your entire house and refuses to boot if it detects if there are any hacking tools for other Nintendo consoles. If it finds an RCM Loader or like an old R4 card or something it will immediately set itself aflame.
3 - If you try opening the Switch 2 up at all, a tracker initiates and Reggie Fils-Aimé will immediately drive over to your house, shoot you in the dick and fuck your wife. So you will have to make sure that you've gone through the first security step before doing this.

Please, YouTubers and twitter users, you should repeat this as fact. It has exactly as much credibility as what you just posted everywhere.

Honestly it looks more bad for these websites and YT channels publish an anonymous nobody as a source.

Nintendo Prime is already working on his script. lol

The couple I've seen have called it out as fake

So do I as well. No sources, taken directly out of the air. (The poster).

Spawn Wave just debunked it on YouTube. Well, at least he strongly believes its fake.

Crazy that a random page 3 reply from a relatively untrustworthy member, and with no external source, somehow gained enough traction to make its way across the entire internet and on to Spawn Wave. The algorithms work in mysterious ways.

You just basically described modern day "journalism". No need for fact and don't forget to hit like and subscribe.

Lol, Nintendo Buttplug prime Put me in his video for calling him out

TheFlow wouldn't make their findings public, as they send them in to the bug bounty program and expect it to be patched before anyone could attempt them.

He's now banned, too. Anyways. Most of his story was fabricated with little to no sources to backup his claims, almost sounds like he generated this with ChatGPT. Yet somehow this gets shared everywhere online without pointing out the clear obvious, and it unfortunately puts this community in a bad light.

Looking through his post history there is a ton of AI/Bot-isms anyways.

This thing isn't going to get an exploit and if you want to splurge another $449.99+tax be my guest and Nintendo's

Dude, It's a good thing i cut my daughters face out of my profile picture.

I actually tried linking the comment to a well known nintendo forum just for a fun read but was banned because according to the mods aka power trippers, this site is a hellhole of racist idiots. I don't expect much from people that demands tolerance but they themselves can't tolerate other people .

Hey now, some of us are just typical average idiots.

I find this extremely hard to believe, even knox doesn't fully brick a samsung phone, it just mimics the functions of the samsung / samsung pay apps (unless I'm unaware of any recent changes to how they work) Nintendo is clearly going to lose out by doing this, and don't think it could ever make it to Europe.

It just looks like a story to bounce off the CLU and make it interesting.
We'll see when it comes out next week, but we'll know soon enough.

Next week? It's this Thursday.
