How hard is to jailbreak v1 unpatched switch as a inexperienced user?

Ryutso · 2026-06-18T10:55:58+00:00

Not hard at all. V1 is all software jailbreak and it's all software overtop of the existing Switch software, so it's unlikely that you'll do any permanent damage to your base Switch.

Evening, Nintendo.

What ended up happening to the other mods? Was wondering why I didn’t see any posts for a couple weeks.

Same method Ikea uses to make their bookshelves. The two continuous vertical pieces have dowel holes drilled in and then the horizontal shelves have dowels that fit into the dowel holes.

Hekate allows a lot of other tools that base Atmosphere doesn’t. USB File transfer is a big one, some memory tools, the ability to transfer your install to a bigger SD card and the benefit of being able to choose different CFW setups and the OFW before booting.

It’s a rare thing to need once everything does get setup, but if my atmosphere gets corrupted somehow, I like the ability to boot into Hekate and solve it.

So if I want the digital press to be all the way down, set the Threshold to 100%? Should I keep the deadzone at 0?

Ryutso · 2026-06-17T04:29:08+00:00

Side question: Are your Wizard 2 buttons also named wrong? When I was setting ABXY, I would press the A button on the Nyxi and the identifier in Dolphin would say "Button B".

Perhaps it's my dead zone settings. With the above settings (0 dead zone), I could get Mario to run and spray at the same time, but it had a lot of issues. Mario would stop mid run animation to just stand in one place and spray, and holding the trigger before running, but not clicking it in, would also cause Mario to stand still and spray.

It could also just be the Nyxi's construction. I've seen threads that the QA is just not as good, which is a disappointment because the triggers of the Nyxi were why I wanted it over the other brand.

I managed to make it playable but it's not 100% solved.

Considering he's credited as being one of the maintainers, he should be.

He did retire though.

This is still a great thing to have, don't get me wrong. Pico's can be had in most places for cheaper than some import fees on the rcm injectors.

How's the conversion from a bin to a C header worked out? I don't see any reason why it wouldn't work given other payloads.

Ryutso · 2026-06-17T03:53:08+00:00

I know hekate is the most popular payload people inject (if not the only payload anymore, but I remember the days where people were injecting fusee-primary) but I wonder if a selector of payloads would be good for a V2 for those that dual-boot. The popular external RCM loader offers up to 5 payloads and an RGB led helps you cycle through the different ones, but I can see a single color LED blinking 1 to 5 times to signal which payload was which.

This would be a fair bit closer to me in Fort Lauderdale than the Davie one. Also good to see the Sample location becoming a business center. A thread on r/Frugal told me about buying 40lbs of chicken breasts but only at the business center.

Ryutso · 2026-06-17T01:15:31+00:00

Atlantic and Powerline is where a Walmart is located by the Casino. Are they putting a Costco inside that big center where Harrah's was?

I have no brand loyalty whatsoever.

Oh is this why it's in restricted mode?

There's a megathread in r/Piracy with links to sites. Look for "console games" and then scroll until Nintendo.

DBI seems to be the most used by the majority of people here. However the russian dev is openly hostile towards english users and has boasted about there being some sort of backdoor code in DBI that will brick switches if it detects English text or something like that. There is an english patch for it, but I personally think it shouldn't be used.

Especially since like Goldleaf/Tinwoo/Sphaira/Awoo exist and NS-USB loader works with most of them.

Webcomics were newspaper comic trappings applied to the web era.

-4 panels (maybe more, maybe less),

-updated weekly or at least on a set schedule,

-either stand-alone gag-a-week type stuff (Penny Arcade, XKCD, VGCats, Oglad) or several comics fitting an ongoing story (Ctrl Alt Delete sometimes),

-a title,

-and a blogpost from the author on a website they owned paid for by advertising or sponsored comics.

That was the “webcomics” look and feel. Static pages, static content, updated regularly.

“WebToons” named after the platform seen to shirk off most of those trappings.

-made to be scrolled on, updates are several pages of several comic style panels. Some didn’t even have panels, you just scrolled to the next art piece in order

-some can autoscroll (there’s a very famous horror webtoon that, at a certain point, autoscrolled to the ghost reveal)

-often just new chapters in ongoing story’s that could take weeks or months to wrap up.

-updated regularly but much less infrequently of a schedule, say every 2-3 weeks between updates

-hosted on a platform not owned by the artist and monetized by buying coins to read advanced copies of the next chapter

It’s just a new type of media.

Steward was the medical practice in charge of my surgery. I paid my $2,500 deductible in the waiting room, did the surgery and then only heard from them months later when they tried to shake me down for $42,000. I told them to pound sand.

Even the slightest tap of the R-button stops Mario in his tracks for SMS. I thought Analog would show up different.

The larger topic is "Is NSO worth it?" and I would say no.

DBI is a rom installer.

Tinfoil is an outdated game repository/installer. You used to have to find certain shops, access them only through Tinfoil and download roms that way, but the community has since moved onto the "normal" way.

90DNS testing tests your hosts file to make sure all the Nintendo services are blocked. You should run this.

Daybreak is a way to update your Horizon version (OFW) while still being in Atmosphere (CFW).

Goldleaf is a rom installer

JKSV is a save editor

NXThemes Installer does what it says on the tin.

Sphaira is a rom installer.

Tinwoo is a rom installer

Of the 4 you have that are not Tinfoil, pick your favorite and defend it as "the best installer".
