This thread is "How/When will you hack your switch for the first time??"
Hope that helps!
In the library with a rope - after winning my third game of clue?
All the choices are arbitrary, half of them will never happen, or happened in the past, and whatever people say that they will do now - they will reevaluate, when stuff gets released and they have more information. And see their friends do something, they want to do as well...
Here is the most simple reaction to the poll I can give you.
- First wave o' hacks already happened - destinction was - people who were on lower firmwares - used it. No negatives.
- Second wave o' hacks is expected to be released as an aid to launch CFW via software, or are the hardware assisted hacks? Not sure, in any case - they are not separable from CFW
- There never will be a flashcard
- None of the people in here know what the exact benefits of a modchip will be.
- As far as we can tell, there are no "hard" and "easy" CFWs in development. And the first release is actually targeted at the "I need easy" crowd.
So what is this poll?
I'd really like to understand it. Is it people basing decision making on majority votes - by people that have obviously hardly any clue either? Is it people taking the 3DS blueprint and trying to lay it over the switch development cycle - when it simply doesn't fit? Why?
Is this Nintendo in an effort to prime people to wait for stuff that will never happen, or that will never happen "the way it did on the 3DS"? (I'm starting to wonder, because - there was a "wouldnt you first wait, how great Nintendos online service is, before hacking" thread in the recent past. Oh, and how great Nintendos online service turned out to be...) Is this people vowing to use abstract concepts, while having no ideas what they will entail, how long they'd have to wait, if and when or if they will happen at all...
Is this avid buyers from piracy sites, listing all paraphernalia categories of past generations asking people which ones to go for - this time around? Because then someone has to tell, them - that this time, its different. (Because Nintendo did their homework (Nvidia didnt).)
Here is one to puzzle you for another month and a half, untii the Atmosphere release gets closer.
The CFW - you don't "install" it on the Switch. It just lies on your SD card - and you load it via hacks. Mind blown?
Wait, it gets better! From what we currently know - it will never be possible to install a CFW on your Switch (without the equivalant of a mod chip). Wait - it still gets better. The first modchips out there most likely will not hold CFW either. They will be hardware "hackenablers".
Now - could I suggest - that you at least look at the concepts out there, before you make up milestones, that have nothing to do with ongoing Switch development? Kind of a "lessen the overall confusion" kind of request?
