So I recently came across information saying switch games rely almost completely on P2P. So I'm interested in the possibility of Reverse Engineering this and making changes to the DNS that would point the switch to a server that mimics nintendo servers. If we could mimic the Nintendo servers to "authenticate" a hacked switch, maybe we can get the switch to connect with other unauthenticated systems.

I have a bit of programming experience I could use to help out, would just need someone with the magic touch when it comes to reverse engineering. Who's up for it?

Yup, my discord is kibblerz.. Where did you find the information on matchmaking being NEX and amazon? Although I've been programming for awhile my issue with homebrew was always figuring how the behind the scenes works on these devices.

Would this really be something they can sue over? That'd be like if game developers sued hamachi and other vpn services for providing an alternative to online play. If it's true p2p than the only servers that would be needed would be for matchmaking... A simple declaimer should be able to keep away legal liability.

Hey,
I’m up for it, for Starters you got discord?, communication would be a shit done better then lol.
Secondly it’s all P2P under a custom websocket protocol. As for MatchMaking it’s all NEX and amazon servers heh

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
