Hello guys,

This is for the first time in 20 years i gonne mod a game computer.
My son have his birthday and he asked a switch so he get a switch oled.
The chip is on his way, instinct v6, can i update my switch to the latest version?, because the video tutorials on youtube are several months old.

I think i need a push to the right direction with hints so i can search and google it.

Thanks in advance

You can update the firmware if you want to, but it doesn't really make a lot of difference, you can mod it on lower firmware and you can mod it on firmware 16.1.0, current latest firmware. I hope you got an Instinct NX V6 Black.

White one have some ground problem, I recently had a black v6 installed, it work fine. You should be fine if you got a V6 black.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".

    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    but that's a long shot

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."
