The risk of ban has never been zero and it won't be now just because Mig Switch says it is.

I also don't see why anything would change regarding the second hand market. Before Mariko everyone had a hackable Switch and therefore the ability to dump carts and share certs without special hardware, and there was no big uproar about banned used games.
*sound of crickets*
thats all i can say if you cant read 5 post up :toot:


thx for @Hassal "sound of crickets"

While I don’t see them banning carts, I think banned consoles is very possible. You’d be surprised how many people are so confused by an RCM jig, and setting up CFW, while a Mig would also need to be setup via the sd card I feel this is still significantly easier then setting up things for unpatched console.

I only want to jailbreak my PS4 Pro after it's EOL. It's still a very powerful little computer, and I'm excited to eventually take advantage of it when getting banned off PSN is no longer a concern.
I haven't heard of any new updates regarding PS4 jailbreaks for 10.0+. So I would just maybe find a console that has the lowest firmware, since you cannot downgrade because of e-fuses.

Certainly, it's wise to remain cautious until the technology is proven by reliable users. Instances of counterfeit products exist, and ensuring trustworthiness is crucial before celebrating any breakthrough.

They can only ban consoles assuming they can detect Mig Switch which is speculation. What isn't speculation is the possibility that people will dump games and return them which will result in cart bans. This is nothing new though. This was possible for several years with SX OS and people ended up getting only their games banned.

You assumed right. They promised to release an application for hacked switches to do the job, not that we needed, but they promised to do anyway.
Not really that needed, nxdumptool and Game Card Installer can do the exact same thing.

One AliExpress seller called "Lionel Messi Video Game Store Store" (yes, this isn't a joke, that is an actual storefront), who are supposedly selling the Mig Switch. I wouldn't trust buying anything from them as their store is fairly new, the store also has zero ratings which is a BIG red flag.

Always remember to get them from reputable distributors, people. Be careful when searching for a Mig Switch. :teach:

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
