Check the serial numbers posted in the OP. If you want 100% confirmation, there's a tutorial you can follow which is also included in the OP.

...did you read any of the OP before posting?

You have to check the serial number on the bottom of the box, and compare to the list on the 1st page.

I'm back home and got my jig in mailbox :
I followed this thread to check my Switch :
https://gbatemp.net/threads/a-defin...atched-or-not-purchases-after-07-2018.512018/

the result is not the same than described in it
but :
- I got a lot of information
- a smiley (pretty happy)
- a QR code
- "fusee gelee" written on my screen

So to many clues indicating that my switch is unpatched
If you are lost by comparing your result with those in this tutorial, check my list ;)

and by the way I'm happy :D


mea culpa : the screenshot is from the computer not the switch :D and everything is the same for me

Finally bought one, thanks a lot @Essometer to support us in terms of finding the right (unpatched) serials!

Serial: XAJ700152XXXXX
Serial on device matches serial on box: Yes
Region: EUR, Germany
Firmware: 3.0.1
Color option: Grey
Store: MediaMarkt
Was a bundle (if yes, which): No
Purchase date: 03/08/2018
Copyright on box: 2017
Fusée Gelée works: YES

Since I have checked like dozens of Switch boxes (and all seem to be un-patched), I was just wondering if any of you, especially the ones with patched devices, have a copyright with year 2018 printed on top of the box.
Every single box I saw was 2017 and probably it could be an additional indicator for patched revisions.
I just added it to my data set and if you like the idea, feel free spread it @Essometer :)

@Thandor enjoy your switch!

I would suggest OP to add "RCM works" as an additional field above "Fusée Gelée works". Some people may be going by the "RCM OK" message instead of the 0x7000 stack smash.

RCM works in every Switch consoles, patched or unpatched. No point in adding a useless field. Fusée Gelée compatibility is what should concern any potential buyer.
