Hacking If you installed Linux on your Switch, could you hack other Switches using your Switch?

Seems to me like the scripts for F-G just need to be run using Linux. And the Switch has a perfectly usable USB port on it.

So...

You could theoretically have your own Switch-shaped Switch-hacking machine!

Theoretically: probably
Realistically: why?
I've been typing and erasing ideas for about ten minutes now, and I don't think I can come up with a good reason why. A laptop would do this much more efficiently.

That being said, realistically... Because it's jokes.

I don't see much ppl using laptops anymore here, it's mostly ppl at university...

A smartphone is the best option as almost everyone have one already and goes everywhere on it pockets...

I don't use my I7 11.6 inch laptop 4 years... I rather take my Nvidia Shield tablet almost every day's with me just for browsing internet...

that is what fail0verflow suggested in their release
Yeah they did say that they leave that to any reader who might want to create for android...

However sadly the Xhci will be a problem as almost all old devices have no USB 3.0 and even on newer devices mostly only the powerful expensive ones usually have usb3.0...

My girfriends's recent Samsung J5 2017 4 example is still 2.0 and cost 200€ in a promotions as usually its a god damn 250€ phone.

ps: But maybe we can also patch the phone's android kernel to work in USB 2.0 like Linux on old PC's with no Xhci.

    @Xdqwerty No you heard wrong, and don't believe till you experience yourself. Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games of all time. Yes it had issues early on, esp with older hardware like the xbox1, but it is awesome, esp now being 4k on Series S/X or PS5

    @BigOnYa, Then i think people were talking about fallout 76
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    that one was buggy too
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you right there, fallout 76 was a letdown, but it not that bad now, they have fixed slot of issues they had at launch. Biggest issue with Fallout 76 is its a pay to advance further type of game, which sucks
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, I may probably download fallout 3 or new vegas on my ps3
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:

    New Vegas is awesome, F3 was ok too.
