Oh and the admin on “that website where it was exclusively announced” said in a comment that he spent the last 48h testing over 200 games, knowing that bbb released just a little more than 100 games we can guess that their CFW can launch much more than bbb releases...
He also said that an in-depth video review is coming very soon.

... They been doing this since before you knew how to properly wipe your ass.

I can't be arsed to connect the switch to my pc/smartphone for every tiny fart and I have sufficient disposable income so IF it really turns out to be 30 bucks and allows the use of other payloads then it's gonna be a solid investment even if a month or so later atmosphere gets a public release.

I don't recall anyone saying they're "new". Their practices, atleast for the Switch scene, are just very unsavory.
It’s true my first mod chip from them was in 2004 I believe .. I wonder if it’s still the same people or if others took over.All these youngster that think xecuter is new to the game

Regardless of what Atomsphere provides, I am 100% getting this. Looks official and polished, and chances are they are going to allow 3rd party payloads through the USB-C on the bottom of their dongle. In fact, it wouldn't even make sense not to, as the majority will wait for Atmosphere, so it would be better to advertise this as a dongle which comes prepacked with their CFW but can have other CFW flashed to it.
what is unsavory about it? the fact they have a working cfw with options that wont be available in atmosphere right off the jump? or they gave us an easy way to not have to use our pc's or android devices to boot up?
i guarantee you this dongle will be flashable, so you can load up whatever firmware your heart desires, as they have done on all their chips since the xecuter 2.6 release, knowing how they operate, i bet this ships with a linux payload so it stays legal. then you will have to head to xbins to grab that cfw that the most of you are craving for your legal backups

Unsavory because it costs money and people would rather use open source over closed source (which hasn't even been confirmed)
then just dont use it, if you dont mind using other methods, its pretty simple, just dont use it then...

Well I wasn't saying I wasn't going to use it, just explaining why others wouldn't use it.
On one hand you have all of these new talent in the scene fof,reswitch, etc on the other hand you have oldschool TX.. kids long ago we didn’t have github or Twitter this check out what dev were working on. So we relied on teams like TX, Dark Alex on maxconsole forum to try and see what new hacks were being worked on.. times are different now. Either way,people will go either with cfw from this open source atmosphere or TX .. it’s all the same drama, history repeats. For me personally I will use both.
People are going to be really disappointed when they find out this is going to cost a lot more than $30. Maybe it will sell to the third party distributors for that price, but there is no way they are going to sell a device that could save people hundreds of dollars for $30.

Yeah how much will they charge? It is quite literally a USB dongle. Chances are it could go to $80 at most, but it isn't like Gateway where they had to design a new circuit with new connectors and reverse engineer the card. They literally just figured out the RCM, like the rest of the groups, and made a dongle.
dongle probably just consists of a controller and a small onboard memory to boot the custom bootloader

Well that is what I implied (or at least tried to). We already have a very good idea of how it is going to work, and it probably didn't take as much RE as the gateway card did, and so the CFW flash support, portability, and their CFW probably will net it around $50-$80. Of course, what do I know.im sure the dongle is flashable, which probably holds the cfw on it itself, so it probably consists of a small board with onboard memory and a controller.. pretty sure the front usb port is for flashing it.. but hey what do i know
What I want to put out there is that they didn't have the same setup in their first announcement video. Whether or not it was real (which it most likely was) shows that they probably still have a solder solution which may be cheaper, but at the cost of now flash support, unless they have some serious CFW going on.
