Nintendo Switch Firmware 3.0 Hacks Made Public

C7CkHQdXEAMQKe1.jpg

Team Reswitched has made their webkit exploit toolkit known as PegaSwitch available to the public! The newest version now supports up to firmware version 3.0, and comes with an Open Sourced SDK known as libtransistor so homebrew developers can get started on the console. They -even- released a Switch Homebrew emulator (they made it clear it will not emulate games) so you can debug and test homebrew without having to use the Switch every time!

With Switch homebrew still in it's infancy, don't expect anything crazy for a while still... but what an exciting time for the community!

NO, the lower the better. you don't wanna open it and "software update required" cause places like target and Walmart actually care about not having money
I get the lower the better, my question is, should I go out and get a 3.0 (or less) Switch, or is there a good possibility that 3.0+ will be hacked soon?

I say go less, cause right now, (obviously) only 3.0- has been actively released, so going higher is a bit of an unnecessary gamble

I somehow didn't see this when I first woke up this morning.
It's a nice thing to wake up from a nap to though! Now, I just need a Switch....

Also I had to wait an hour and a half to post this lmao

Just a heads' up, Walmart doesn't open their switches and update them, lol.
And even if they get one as a return, they don't go and update it lol.

What's the issue with Target? Seems like people dislike them. I've bought 2 switches from them in the past month and both were 3.0.

The Problem is bascially, new Games have Crypto which take a long time to fixed, we not have access for Backups and Homebrew Emulators, can used on PCs or other stuff.

I was absolute hyped as I read about PegaSwitch, ordered a Nintendo, then I through: Hey, there are no Games Coming 2018, only Odysee this month. Pokemon is 2019 and yeah... rest is Multi-Platform and 99% of you guys have a PC so...: :D

Meh, look at the Wii U, so much potential.. what did they used for? Get free games... no File Explorer, no Media Player NO NOTHING.
yeah, I hope exploit loading is not as difficult as it was on Wii U, the most annoying thing was that there was only a chance that the browser exploit would actually work - which put me off making anything for it.

    I want a 120hz 4k tv but crazy how more expensive the 120hz over the 60hz are. Or even more crazy is the price of 8k's.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    No real point since movies are 30fps
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Not a big movie buff, more of a gamer tbh. And Series X is 120hz 8k ready, but yea only 120hz 4k games out right now, but thinking of in the future.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Mostly why you never see TV manufacturers going post 60hz
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I only watch tv when i goto bed, it puts me to sleep, and I have a nas drive filled w my fav shows so i can watch them in order, commercial free. I usually watch Married w Children, or South Park
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Stremio ruined my need for nas
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I stream from Nas to firestick, one on every tv, and use Kodi. I'm happy w it, plays everything. (I pirate/torrent shows/movies on pc, and put on nas)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty

    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Damn, only $2.06 and free shipping. Gotta cost more for them to ship than $2.06
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I got my Dad a firestick for Xmas and showed him those 3rd party sites on Kodi, he loves it, all he watches anymore. He said he has got 3 letters from AT&T already about pirating, but he says f them, let them shut my internet off (He wants out of his AT&T contract anyways)
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    That's where stremio comes to play never got a letter about it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just use a VPN, even give him my login and password so can use it also, and he refuses, he's funny.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I had to find and get him an old style flip phone even without text, cause thats what he wanted. No text, no internet, only phone calls. Old, old school.
