Glad I'm still on 3.0.0, things are getting better by the day

 

[DarkenedMatter]

Can't wait to not have a release.

 

[magico29]

i told you baby and nobody trusted me.ready to rock and roll baby powerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr ohh yeah baby

 

[SkittleDash]

I'm on 4.0.0 sadly, but it's nice to see the Switch scene rolling very smoothly. x3

 

[TheMCNerd2017]

Nice! I assume this is for firmware 3.0.0?

 

[YukiHomura]

i need a 3.0 switch so no Supermario Odessey bundle for me

 

[the_randomizer]

No release, pfft, BFD for them I guess. No release, wow, what next?

to be fair, they literally only just managed to do it. Even if they wanted to release it right now, a lot of work would still have to go into making it noob-friendly etc. If they just say "yeah here's how it works have fun recreating everything", the only one who really benefits is Nintendo.

The best we can hope for is a 34c3 reveal.
He's unveiled very critical 3ds bugs there before, so lets hope that trend continues with the switch.

Believe me, even if it was ready for release, it would still be withheld.

The exploit is made through splatoon2, i think

 

[rileysrjay]

Gratz to qlutoo and the reswitched team for figuring this out. Hopefully they can find something that they can share with the public that have their switches on 3.0 and below.

P.S. 133 peeps watching this, wow!

 

[DinohScene]

GG Nintendo.
You tried.

 

[the_randomizer]

There's never gonna be 4.0.x support, so I've no reason to be terribly excited. Sorry.

 

[DinohScene]

There's never gonna be 4.0.x support, so I've no reason to be terribly excited. Sorry.

There will be.
Whenever a new entry point is found on 4.x.

Patience is a virtue.
Oh, and well, you could just always get a second switch you know...

Your predictions haven't proven to be accurate thus far. You might be right but it's a guess. You can't say never. You don't know.

He's on the dole.
