Hacking Twitch Plays Nintendo Switch

[mfosse]

I'm already aware of the other Twitch Plays Nintendo Switch Channel, I've been wanting to do this for a while but haven't had the hardware to make it happen until now
link to thread about said channel

I'm aiming to stream different games than that channel, or maybe have them compete? Idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

To hold different buttons together do it like this: "up+b"

I think games like Mario Odyssey or Breath of the Wild are too much complex for this kind of thing. You must pick "simpler" games which require a more simple combination of input. That's why Pokémon or RPGs in general work so well with the "Twitch plays" formula. I hope my advice will be useful in some way.

You obviously haven't seen TwitchPlaysDarkSouls. Some journalists say Breath of the Wild is the Dark Souls of Zelda games, so this type of system would be perfect for Twitch.

In Super Mario Odyssey we "pause" with Dpad down, which lets us look around before we do anything
There are a lot of commands I've made and even pre-programmed sets of commands for the more complex stuff

We made it to the Cloud Kingdom!

what are you using to send inputs into the switch this could be useful for making some scripts or bots.

The whole thing is open source, the bot, the scripts, everything! You can find it here

This could potentially be useful for pausing applications while they're running:

Using the debugger, he has the option to "break" or pause the game and "go" to continue. If there's a way to implement that, I think it would be pretty cool
