Did you dump the firmware? Was that your X (twitter) video of the dump?
how do you want i dump the firmware (of migswitch) .??

The dump, is with nxdumptool, on the same switch, but launch with Atmosphére.
I dump my own cart of Mario rabbid kingdom battle.

Oh hey there, just saw your Twitter post. Really cool stuff.

Those scratched off chips look like RP2040...
I don't think they look to be that. The chip's markings are usually at the bottom of the chip, and not the middle.

They would be making bank if that was the case. If they were RP2040, that would probably be a $10 flash cart. Though if we ignore the missing silkscreen, the number of pins lines up, the crystal oscilator there is probably 12MHZ, question is though, which mostly disproves this theory, is where is the flash? They would need flash to run a program (the only other alternative is running it from RAM, requiring a re-program on each boot).

The RP2040 has its flash integrated like every modern microcontroller?

That's all I care about, the scene needs an entrypoint
Even if it would allow simple homebrew, it would get you no centimeter nearer to CFW.

it also works with the switch cart switcher, it seems there is queue to go the last game.

Hmm so maybe don’t waste my time no more designing something like action replay ds but just to add a single button

I doubt anyone else would probably want that if they can just get that 4 cart switcher

Yea and to mention while it's docked and you're sitting on couch, you can switch games without getting up, using that remote.

It's weird that this thing not only needs external power to work instead of getting it from the cart slot directly, but also that only the top 4 slots do the switching, and the bottom 4 slots are just "storage", I stead of being able to switch all 8 slots. Seems wasteful and semi-deceptive at first glance.

This thing with 8 mig switches all loaded with 1TB SD cards each.

It would take approximately 4 hours to load the game you want 😭😭😭

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    So a man goes to the doctor because his boner wont go down. As he is laying in the hospital bed, with his thing propped up in the air, a fly is flying around and landing on the tip and bothering him, so he calls in the nurse. The nurse comes in, swats at the fly but can't quite reach it, so she climbs his boner to get better aim. After a few tries of swatting and sliding back down, she says sorry I cant get it. He says keep going, a few more tries, and I can shoot the fly down.
