Lets do a little advocacy here.
Flip your bit back at Nintendo - become a modding guide for someone who has difficulties getting there.
If Nintendo just made sure, that you cant use the Switch in the way you used it in the past - with really nothing you could do about it - make sure, that at least ONE other person will get a modchip installed in their Switch, because of you.
Return the favor.
Help your friends with their questions, provide them with guidelines for easy product acquisition. Help them with soldering, do what you can. It doesn't take much, it helps everyone out, and it makes sure, Nintendo doesn't remotely change code and functionality on our systems in the future, without users being informed.
FYI this is a new thing they are pulling, and you where there, when they started.
If everyone affected by their current approach gets a modchip, and convinces at least ONE friend to get one as well - their tactic backfires.
Tell a friend, be friendly - and flip your bit back at Nintendo.
Dear Mr. Kimishima - we hope this message will reach you.
Declaration: We see Nintendos action of finding a way into our systems and changing their functionality remotely, without our knowledge or consent, as an aggressive act and a qualitatively new breach of a preexisting red line, trying to keep your customers in a walled garden ecosystem. Your acts were unprovoked, your actions are unjustified and the legality of your approach is questionable.
The Switch is an unsubsidized hardware platform and we have the expectation to own what we bought, after we have paid for the device in full. If you want to retroactively change core functionality (remove access to a web browser - for everyone that doesn't want to update to your latest firmware) - and do so in a covert approach designed not to grab media attention - expect us to look at you with different eyes, than those of a five year old Labo customer.
Sincerely,
A voice from the scene
Why get a modchip? This won't do anything except putting money in the wallets of ppl pushing paid piracy.
Here is the deal.
Methods to reset the bit will come out from the scene - so theres no hurry.
Anything is possible, they being the vendor , but excluding the OP topic for a moment, I dont think Nintendo would take that step as it would be a step to far and all these highly skilled Devs would expose that fact, very dark and dangerous waters for Nintendo to actually do it , just my opinion.
Perhaps it's more about the Mariko Switch? I meant if webapplet more often than not, contains plenty of vulnerabilities to exploit. In case Mariko patch all the hardware vulnerability and we have no solution for this super nag in long term, it would hinder Switch homebrew community in long run. Sure there are plenty of original model of Switch around, but what if Mariko is actually better and more desirable model. What if Mariko has external HDD support. What if in longer run, Mariko would have exclusive titles? Since Switch is portable console what if people misplaced their Switch at time the older model gets discontinued? People may end up buying old model Switch without warranty against hardware defect if they want CFW, and pay more to scalpers, when Mariko is cheaper in comparison... The point is looking at long term, we want to solve any problem for the homebrew scene Nintendo would try to throw out.
Willing to bet its not a domain and rather an IP at play here to Circumvent DNS tricks.
would it help if i added range, or subnets or ....... naa that would also be to easy to circumvent on homebrew side too.
