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

[Platinum Lucario]

I'm sure that people want to hack the Xbox's security, they just can't. You'll see with the Nintendo Switch, some smart people will try to hack it and they won't be able to do it.

Actually, the Xbox One SDK was leaked, that's one thing that has happened. As for exploits? No has bothered yet, not because it's tightly secured, it's just there's not much interest of people doing so. But eventually it will happen.

Nothing is fool-proof. Since Nintendo Switch has more attention in the hacking scene than Xbox or PlayStation, Nintendo Switch will be hacked within a year, most likely through a mod chip or something.

What will be the naming trend for Switch homebrew?

Wii : ii (ftpii, riivolution, etc.)
WiiU : U (AstUroid, Upaint, etc.)
Switch : ? (yeah, we don't need a trend, time to find proper homebrew names )

If you're serious, you should rather get a GPD Win if you want a handheld for emulation and older games.

The thing this needs to be hacked or otherwise the only way to cheat Pokemon will be to cheat them in sun and mon and transfer them with poke bank if they put it on this system it is and not make a new handheld and gen 8s put on that. It will be like when x and y first came out where you have to breed.

 

[Bladexdsl]

lol you think it's going to be hacked day one

 

[ov3rkill]

They're screwed if they're using the same protection they used on the Wii U. hehe.
Other than that, they'll be fine for the years to come. I hope.

It is I know I am genius!

I have prepared axe.exe for download it is a one click tool which exploits joycon by hacking them from the screen.


On topic, Will emulated amiibo like amiqoo work? Or will there be some more security?

 

[Bladexdsl]

well make sure to make it so you don't have to damn connect online to hack it this time

No, the online works with the nintendo server.
Maybe if the community make an alternate server to play but wont be officialy

Yes, it will work. Amiiqo fakes a real NFC chip from a figurine perfectly. Nothing can tell the difference.

i will laugh if the nand can be accessed though the USB port like the nes mini.

USB will only be able to access the SD cardvmax, even if I suppose Nintendo may use encryption and write protection to prevent what happened with the 3ds.

[Disharmony16]

that would be a catastrophe.
Unofficial servers are
1. mostly unpopulated
2. are filled only with cfw users that means that probably every second person would hack or mod in his game wtf

Ikr, that is why i'll pay for a "better" service, instead of playing with cfw users

 

[Jayro]

I'm willing to bet a chinese hacking group like Gateway will pop up and make a SKY3DS-eque flash cart before we see CFW. Just sayin.

 

[Bladexdsl]

look at you bastards you can't wait to hack it

 

[Noctosphere]

already confirmed that there is an exploit in 1, 2, switch...
if you target the console instead of your opponent, you get into console, pass security

maybe it will be random names always ending with NX
HaxNX, ftpNX, paintNX, romloaderNX
