Broken tickets are completely different from a brick
True, I just answered the user in question with what we know a bad DevMenu NSP is capable of. I feel like OP does not have a bricked console but a video game console that cannot play games, well, is about as good as a paperweight.

Have you done the basics like hold power down for 30 seconds and then try rebooting. Or even unplugging the battery letting it sit for a few minutes then trying again just to be sure it's not a hard lockup.

wait what how on earth you remove an sd card on accident from a Switch? Gonna need to explain what actually happen if your looking for help
Did you use auto rcm? most ppl claim their switch is bricked b/c of that, but it really isnt

i was being a dummy and i removed the sd card on accident while on devmenu
How does that "brick" even turn out?
Did you try holding power for 12 seconds?
Did you try going into maintenance mode to fix things from there?
Also you could (theoretically) edit the NAND backup that you made after you messed up and remove the devmenu (or whatever NSP you installed) from it before restoring it. Not sure if and how this works, but theoretically it should be possible.

Correct me if i´m wrong but isn´t the "bad ticket brick" fixed by reinitialising the switch via recovery mode?

Even if OP removed the sd during nsp install process it should result in a faulty/broken ticket (though why the heck would someone do this??)

    So true

    @K3Nv2 Snow Day is pretty fun. My only bitch would be the camera controls, when you move around, say down, you have to move the right stick left or right to get camera to turn and get your view, other than that I like it so far.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    I bet most people at the time still watched it in black and white
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
