I'd have to actually own a Switch first. I haven't bought a Nintendo home console since I got a Wii about 3 years ago. I (wisely) skipped the Wii U, because they're still $300. And now that production is over, that price will only go up.
Why are you in this section of the forum?

regardless if you pay for it, its still piracy is it not.

name me one system that hasnt been hacked and had piracy practically straight after the hack.

Paying for it doesn't mean piracy. Could be used for backups instead of carrying cartridges.

No but it doesn't mean you're not allowed to make it happen. As long as they are for yourself and yourself only, there's nothing wrong. And before you say, modding a console is not an illegal action. Any product you own, you have the right to do as you see fit with it as long as it's not being used for wrong doings such as suspicious online activities.

Honestly speaking, if you plan to buy a console just because of hacking, or you're planning to NOT buy one just because of hacking, there's something wrong with you.

Just enjoy the product, and if you like it, support the developers so the can make more :)
hacking is just a bonus. But the main reasons are to enjoy the console what games it has to offer

I bought the original Wii, PSP, PSTV, and a second 3DS just because of hacking, but still occasionally pay for 3DS games with Ever Oasis being the most recent.

While I don't yet own a Switch, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has already been preordered and a more concentrated effort to acquire one will likely be made once Super Mario Odyssey hits.

It doesn't matter I am just curious why someone not interested in a product would be on a forum about that said Product. There is nothing wrong with it. I am just really curious.
Prospective buyers. Oo

    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:
    Kodi repost are still pretty popular
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    What the hell is Kodi reposts? what do you mean, or "Wut?" -xdqwerty
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Google them basically web crawlers to movie sites
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    oh you mean the 3rd party apps on Kodi, yea i know what you mean, yea there are still a few cool ones, in fact watched the new planet of the apes movie other night w wifey thru one, was good pic surprisingly, not a cam
  • 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.
