Nintendo Switch 2 jailbroken

[Johnic]

Nintendo Switch 2 hacked (by AI), first jailbreak released, allows hombrew, dumping and modding games

I really hope Nintendo doesn't overract, because people who pirated games on og Switch or emulated them on PC were a drop in the ocean. But who am I kidding...

Must be because of the physical media backlash.

It was clear that Switch 2 was the next to fall; with AI it takes weeks to do the work of years and it also advances quickly.

 

[Raonak]

lol that didn't take long

 

[Shinobu7]

The futur with all connected and streamed is bright.
Thanks, i guess?

@heroeskillrats @Ico Remember when ya’ll were laughing at the PS5 for this. Hope ya’ll keep that same energy for this. I expect some coping though.

Here is where you got wrong kiddo, I dont care if Nintendo higher ups lose money or not, unlike PS fanboys, I'm already looking up if my SW2 is up to it in case I wanna mess with mine

Higher ups won't lose money, devs will.

They'll continue to get well paid dont worry. At the peak of Switch 1 piracy we saw TOTK selling a gigaton of copies still and here we are less than a month away from Ocarina, even with the devs "losing money". Nothing will change, so why care.

No they won't. Devs get paid annual salaries. Higher-ups on the other hand have bonuses tied to quarterly/annual performance and have a lot of their compensation tied to the stock price. They will be the ones getting hit if piracy results in lower-than-expected results or stock exchange FUD. And since we're talking about Nintendo here they can't just do mass layoffs since Japanese labor law won't allow them to.

And when a product fails to meet expectations, people lose their jobs. Ordinary people, not suit making millions.

Yeah GKC are shitty. Less shitty than digital only, but still shitty

 

[Waluigi]

This will be the new future, for better or worse. You'll be able to run any software on any hardware. I predict we'll see Steam running on Switch 2 within days.

GKCs are the least of the problems.

I'm all for emulation and preservation but not for readily available software and hardware. This will only get us to an always online future. Nothing offline, everything requiring constant checks.

Don’t give us that crap. You might claim you don’t care but you aren’t jumping for joy at this news like you were in the PS5 thread.

Oh this is huge, anyone that didnt get the update last week can jailbreak

 

[arvfab]

They are a problem, as you still have online requirements just to get your game.

How? Everybody keeps saying how pirates are a minority, or people cheering for piracy because of anti-consumer decisions are just a loud minority.

Well, people will still say "it is what it is", I guess, as long as the "silent majority" is just accepting every anti-consumer decision. Even if the next step to that will be steaming and subscription only gaming.

I wonder if video streaming complete game walkthroughs on twitch & co. will be seen as piracy then

So Nintendo fucked around and found out too? Damn, that's what they get for allowing empty physical boxes to be sold.

"Nintendo is So Fucked"

This is Nintendo, they cannot fire people unless the company is genuinely at risk of going bankrupt otherwise.

You're grasping at straws. Just because he's not celebrating this jailbreak as much as the PS5 one doesn't mean he's melting down like how some of the PS fanboys on this board are melting down over the PS5 jailbreaks.

 

[Eleczoro]

So is this actually legit? Smilebasic? This isn't just a scam to buy a $25 shovelware? Need to know before I pull the trigger.

Likewise you’re grasping at straws too cause Sony hurt you and you love to post contrarian for the sake of it.

Just because he’s not celebrating this jailbreak as much as the PS5 one doesn’t mean he’s not melting down like how some of the PS fanboys on this board are melting down.

All we know is he was jumping for joy at the PS5 news and now doesn’t care about this.

Go figure.

Pirates ruin it for everyone. Sucks
I hope Nintendo sends its best ninjas to set an example lol
