I've used my switch without any issues for about a year, transfering NSP games thru Goldleaf and pushing the payload using TegraRCM using fusee.bin. I used OSW 15.0.0 and Atmosphere 1.4.0 and Hekate 5.9.0.

After transfering the latest FE:E game everything worked as it should, i played a few minutes of the game and then turned my switch to rest mode with approx 90% battery. A few days later i noticed the switch was turned off with no batteries which never happens. So i did the usual, i inserted the jig tool i always use and tried to push the payload using Tegra but i noticed the switch would not turn on. I use an USB C from my comp to turn it on and all i have to do is hold the volume UP button but this time it did not work. I hear the "pling" of the USB C connecting to the switch but the screen is black. If i remove the jig the switch turns on as usual

I've done the following:

  • Tried starting the FE:E game, i got a message saying the file/game is corrupted, so i removed the game and the save file. Same result
  • Removed SD card and tried pushing the payload, same result (black screen)
  • Tried different USB-C cables and even bought 2 new jigs -> same result
  • Formatted the SD Card, same result
  • Formatted the Switch completely, same result
I have been banned by going online but Nintendo cant lock my Switch in any way can they?

Are you checked that the console is off? Maybe is still on but blocked, press the power button for about 20 sec to shutdown it and try again.

@Raugo - Good tip, just tried and it didnt work, same result i.e. black screen when holding down the power up button + power with jig inserted. I can hear the bling on my PC as well when connecting the USB-C. I can start up my switch usual (without jig and just powering up).

Do you have an Android phone that can send payloads?

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Reason how I found Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/249365
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    https://tcrf.net/Pico_VS_Bear
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)
     +1
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.

    FNF was born from Game Jams
