Hypothetically, If I were working at pocket pair, I'd put 2M in crypto on the side to support a team of devs to hack the switch two and enable piracy from year one. Fight fire with fire.
Hacking the Switch 2 becomes a moral obligation at this point.
Apparently not, seeing how badly I got ratiod. Nintendo fans sure are something...
Might be the mention of crypto. A lot of people are quite sore from the crypto based stock market scams that are still going on today.
The entire crypto world has been hijacked by drug dealers, pedos and would be dictators. If they ratioed me because of that, then I wholeheartedly deserve the flack. We need an alternative non speculative private payment method.
No, the drug dealers were there first. The entire crypto world has been hijacked by speculation and scams
Fair enough, silk road was pretty wild.
You don't have to, switch 2 will be hacked next day by mario and zelda fanboys.
We still don't have software-only exploit for switch 1 , even then only certain serial numbers hackable
I thought you could software-only hack the very first Switchs?
No, on those older versions you have to short two pins of the right joycon slot to enter a factory mode, where you can then push a payload from another device, usually a PC. Restarting the console undoes the unlock, so you have to push the payload again
There's going to be no emulators look what Nintendo has done to switch one emulators. They are not going to allow switch 2 emulators to gain traction.
Don't underestimate the power of the whole world against small japanese company. If they won't be able to hack it without accessing hardware spec they will hack Nintendo servers and get all the hardware spec. World will always find the way to fuck corporation that closes it's software / hardware.
