I. WILL. NOT. PAY. TWICE. THE. MSRP.
you will not pay the price in order to not pay for games.

well i guess your one of those that expect everything to be handed to you.

there is no way of having a solderless mod for the nintendo switch other than buying a V1 console and use a dongle.

SO. NO. NEED. TO. SHOUT.

you do come across as one angry little brat, you are rude when you are given the only answer and you come across as rude when your told why and what your only option is.

So, all we can say is, enjoy having to buy your games, as you should be doing anyway.

As for your excuse tho about risking a console that has already been banned, even if you had a modchip, you connect it online to nintendo servers, you will get that nice new console banned too.

so your reasons to not getting a V1 and be able to get what you want, is simply down to you not willing to pay.

You have to purchase a V1 switch... a long time ago a user used to do mod services here but I had an uneasy feeling of sending my switch in to him and like 2 weeks later he was hit with a Cease and Desist from Nintendo... (IDK if the users here ever got their switches back)

But my point is your best bet is selling your current switch and getting a V1... does it suck yes but that's the only way just do what I did and go the ebay route or the pawnshop and ask for the SN before hand to see if it is unpatched... buy them from normal people don't buy directly from someone who knows it's unpatched because you would be spending more than you should.

Won't that get you arrested?
no, not if its something they do on the side, thats how i got my consoles done.

or you could even try facebook on selling pages or market place asking if anyone local is any good at soldering consoles and leave it at that.

then if someone messages you, you can say its for a modchip.

who can I pay to get a modchip soldered that wont steal my lite?
You might want to stop creating new accounts, everyone knows you the topic creator aswell as HK-51. Your not remotely fooling anyone.
The fact your using abbrievations like bdsp and msrp, & that you expect people to believe two level one accounts both have a fear of having their switch lite stolen, by proffessionals…. Someone with an IQ of four would see through it.

If you go to a reputable store, they will have nothing to gain to steal your shitty little console
Learn to solder if you are that desperate, electronics are more resilient than you think, just dont't hold the soldering iron to the chip for minutes.
If you want to pirate game, you will have to pay, wither learn a new skill or shell out some cash, nothing is free in this world.
Or probably wait 10 years then you might have the solution you want.

Some wires can be connected without doing this kind of crap. It's not rocket science.
Currently there are no modchip clips or other ways to connect the wires without solder. If you can't solder it yourself youre going to have to fond someone who can or go without. Thats just the current situation.

Back in the Wii days clips were common llace but they're not available for the switch.

Ok, yes, you can easily buy a modchip locally from any branch of McDonald's, and forget soldering, you don't even need to open your Switch - just duct tape the chip to the back case of the console. Good enough for your needs, sir?
this post was meant to be sarcastic, but you just proved everyone here wrong lol, just you really need to put in the modchip as normal, then duct tape what was meant to be soldered.

Where can I get this duct tape? "It's not like I can just hop into a store and ask for a modchip tape".
No, no, no. Every store knows what modchip tape is. You just have to insist in order to convey that you are a serious pro modder. They will continue to deny they have any in stock. That’s when you have to raise your voice a little. Not all the way…yet. If you can make yourself cry go ahead and do that. insist on speaking with a manager. They won’t take you seriously until you do. When they threaten to call the police you are almost there. Now is the time to unleash the loudest demanding screams you can muster. Make your rant as loud and foul as possible. Throw in a few racist terms if you can. keep this up for just a few minutes until the police arrive…this is their last opposition and you have almost won. Throw yourself to the ground and really start belting it out and wait…you’re still screaming btw, but waiting. Once the police are about 10 feet away jump up and scream at the top of your lungs I’m going to my car to get a gun If you don’t give me modchip tape right NOW And then run! Run like your life depended upon it. As you pass through the doors of the store they will FINALLY acquiesce to your demands and throw your well earned roll of modchip tape. This has worked for me twice now. Good luck and enjoy your modchip tape! You can thank me later!

    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!
