It seems like Nintendo screwed up big time with the Switch, I remember 3DS exploits were hard to get a hold on but it seems everyone and their mom are tearing the swtich security apart

You've got the wrong idea.
We're exploiting nVidia's screw ups. Nintendo has been the one fixing things and the reason we tell people not to update, their code/security has been nearly rock solid but they have a lot of bullshit to mitigate from nVidia who, as we have come to learn, are fairly incompetent at software security.
For context, 1.0.0 was a "beta" firmware internally referred to as "Pilot", which Nintendo had to ship with early consoles in order to meet manufacturing deadlines. It contains many critical security issues fixed in later firmware revisions.

It doesn't seem like Nvidia's screw up but Nintendo's... I'm I wrong?

Seems like a lot of exploits have been nVidia's fuckup.jamais vu is fundamentally an nVidia issue, not a Nintendo one.

Isn't it already going to be pretty difficult going forward? 4.x has potential, but it seems it will be a long while. TX raised the red flag to Nintendo there is a problem in the bootrom. Also imagine they are hunting for the TZH as well. From the sounds of it, the switch will be pretty rock solid soon.They are, and they are being 'covered', which is why things are being kept secret for the long-term. Otherwise, you're going to make entry into the scene later very difficult if not impossible due to downgrade protection and ever increasing mitigation.
What does this mean? That these people have worked our a software hacking method for 3.0 switch consoles?
The team xecuter modchip is still useful because it is for recent firmware, right?

I'd love to be a fly on the wall at Nvidia's HQ meeting with Nintendo, as I bet someone(s) responsible has been bitch slapped because of this security mishap. I bet the chief at N thought "Fuck we should have went with AMD".
In what world do you think AMD is more secure?I'd love to be a fly on the wall at Nvidia's HQ meeting with Nintendo, as I bet someone(s) responsible has been bitch slapped because of this security mishap. I bet the chief at N thought "Fuck we should have went with AMD".
It was supposed to be a silly joke you morons.
