Seems like the only update since the last time I checked was someone actually booting ReiNX in its entirety while the rest of the thread was half 5 hour memes and the other half various anime references. Expected no less from a thread involving Reisyukaku (type that without double checking the proper spelling ;))

I've been speaking Japanese for a few years, so it's easy to remember for me. :creep:
I've also been trying to make you proud by being helpful to people.

might i ask why burning fuses is bad cause it was designed that way i doubt an update would burn all efuses on hacked consoles only then again they can already detect hacked consoles on their servers so it is possiable they write fw that would do that

If fuses are unburnt, downgrading is possible.
The closed beta will go on until this thread reaches 1000 post.
shit, haven't seen that meme since gateway 3.0 hype 2015

I don't think you understand how the efuses work. Say you're on 4.0 and you upgrade to 5.0.

4.0 expects to see 5 burnt fuses. If it boots and sees less than 5 burned fuses, it will burn however many fuses it needs to in order to get to 5.

By upgrading to 5.0, you've burnt fuse number 6. If you try to downgrade back to 4.0, your console will refuse to boot normally, because it expects to see 5 burnt fuses and instead sees 6. You can bypass these checks using f-g and cfw, but by burning your fuses you can't downgrade your stock firmware and boot normally. This means that later, if they release an exploit that works with 4.0 but doesn't in 5.0, you won't be able to take advantage of it. But if you avoided burning your fuses, and made a nand backup before upgrading, you would be able to downgrade.

never thought of that,as for my second question/statement is that possable

What? Burning all the efuses? It doesn't really work that way... I suppose theoretically they could send an update to a Switch that they knew was hacked that would "burn" a really high number of fuses, higher than any firmware actually expects, causing the Switch to refuse to boot normally. But using f-g we can bypass that check, so like splash, it does nothing! << Had to fit a meme in there somewhere!

Unlikely that Ninty would support the NX long enough for this to happen, but it is also possible that Ninty will run out of fuses chasing after the CFW crowd. (remember all the "All we did was delete homebrew if you had it installed!" updates for the Wii?)

no that if they push a fw that have known to have hacked and or pirated to burn all efuses at once to prevent another upgrade on that switch (perfect example is release the said firmware 2-3 months ahead of Pokemon and put a manditory fw update at release and on the game card) without the efuses you can't update so you can't play Pokemon as punishment)

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

as for a court battle they may ask for the switch in question and run checks to see if it's hacked or not thus your argument is invalid and case will be thrown in the garbage can

Not necessarily.

What they have the right to do is ban you from their services, for ToS violation (running modified software) and possibly make a claim for copyright infringement (using their system software without a license, since you voided yours by violating the ToS.)

What they would not have legal right to do is purposefully brick the console. Remember how Apple got into trouble for doing that with the E35 errors from 3rd party repairs? Yeah, there's consequences of that set of decisions in court, at least for the US. Right of First Sale allows you to do anything you want to the hardware. All Ninty has legal right to do is ban you from their services, and possibly claim copyright violation.
