I say just update if you want to do something with your switch. You can wait forever for a CFW and God knows how usable it will be. Get a SX PRO and get pirating/homebrewing - life is short, and with the slow rate of switch homebrew, the system will be obsolete before you get any fun out of it.

Thanks for the input.

I should've mentioned that I already have another switch on Firmware 4.1 and plenty of switch games in my backlog. The idea of getting a second unit was having a separate switch to test backups and be worry free about bans. I have placed a preorder for the SX pro, but it will take a while to be shipped. I'll keep the unit at 1.0.0 for now, and see if the CFW options mature some more. If I get desperate to try new games, I'll backup the 1.0.0 NAND and update the switch to 4.1 or 5.0 without blowing fuses and perhaps even without updating the cartridge slot.

    @SylverReZ, 1) except final fantasy 16. 2) why would I have a console's whole catalogue if most of the games are either shovelware or terrible games?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Kind of a waste, but the allure of all those games over 100,000
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some shovel ware with low ratings you might enjoy more than the ratings would sugest

    Cruisn on the Wii is one of my personal examples of that, it's considered one of the worst games of all time, I loved it and completed it several times.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    The trick for me was to go into the settings and crank up the Wiimote sensitivity to the max and it gets twitchy but you can win that way lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Lots of other games I enjoyed that reviews would say otherwise lol
