Homebrew PSA: we don't know anything about homebrew or piracy on Switch

[Deleted User]

I know right there are no pics of the Nintendo Switch home menu.

It's probably not even done yet, so of course we have no pictures of the HOME Menu.

Well, did you make anything for the 3ds?

I might have possibly

Hmm... Already saved money for the end of march 2017. I think Big N choose the release date to remind us that this is not a April joke...

We're already starting to see threads pop up asking about exploit, homebrew, flashcart and piracy possibilities on the Switch. Put simply:

• We have no idea about the hardware or software on the Switch
• Even if we did know, it took several years to break the Wii U and 3DS, so it's likely that we won't know about any exploits for the Switch for a similar timescale

There is absolutely no point posting threads asking what the possibilities will be for homebrew or piracy on the Switch. Any discussion of this is purely speculative and completely unhelpful in any endeavours to actually hack the console.

Please just be patient. It will happen when it happens.

Not even gonna tell them about SwitchHaxLoader ?

if the switch has 3ds backwars compatibility it would be easier to hack

Early Android phones had ARM11. 3DS has an ARM11.

Go and try flashing Android onto a 3DS.

No one even tried, simply because the 3DS was way too weak for Android.

Consoles were never intended to have piracy lmao

With those $60 pricetags and even more to play online and for DLC and micro transactions... they surely are.

Get a job, hippie.

I have a job, thanks, but I also have bills and rent, like an adulty-adult.

Perhaps you may need to reconsider your discretionary spending if you are unable to afford such luxuries.

Why does this thread have to be a thing? People who ask for switch hacks are clearly trolling.

You might as well just say we're all out of deloreans and magic genies while you're at it

it has game cube virtual console though so i wonder if it can emulate the 3ds

O3DS maybe, but the New 3DS is more powerful than the GameCube. On par with the Wii.

 

[ItsKipz]

i wonder if the switch will have a gacube emulator

N3DS = 4.8 GFLOPS

Wii = 12 GFLOPS
