Hacking Question Could we possibly use this as a software entrypoint?

The developer of A Dark Room put a Ruby interpreter and a code editor in the game as an easter egg. Could this possibly be used in the future to get homebrew on patched Switches? https://ruby.social/@amirrajan/101985836120728909

probably not. I do believe that games are ran in a sandbox mode to where you can not do any sort of overflow code and such.

Ah alrighty.

Doesn’t mean it can’t, most things are run in sandbox, first you brake out of sandbox then go for root code exe!

Maybe .... maybe not - it all depends.
Something similar has been done before on the 3DS with smilebasic:

That's what I was kinda thinking.

Does the browser work in a different way? Because they seem to be able to escape that sandbox.
