Hacking Switch Informations by serial number - READ THE FIRST POST before asking questions

[HexZyle]

Hey guys quick question, I'm going to buy an unopened switch from August 2017. The seller told me the serial number is xaw100153 what are the chances that it's 3.0.0 or lower?

You can use this chart to check

Looks like 100%

XAW40006 has version 3.0.2
Bought this one from eBay from the 5000 unit seller manhattanproducts bought March 9th.

Hope that helps. Didn't see it on the list.

I figured the W400060s were all 3.0.2, but if you add another digit on the serial, I'll be able to add it as a notch onto the chart!

I'm about to pull the trigger on a XAW700096...
According to the list on the first page, it could be 3.0.0 or 2.3.0, but I've read that it might be a gamble.... Should I get it?

Did you end up getting it? I never got the 700094 from Target, wasn't worth the risk.

I guess ill be reporting on the first high value one possibly tomorrow in the 1000 series (got XAW1006###). ebay purchase on march 9th from downpat99 but shipped a bit after (uk store) with U.S storehouses. basically in the borderline between 4.0.1 and 5. Theoretically, I don't think nintendo shipped anything with 5 yet, so im expecting 4.0.1 but who knows. I'll be physically getting it possibly tommorrow

I'm still in the hunt... Saw a Mario Odyssey bundle and was wondering what are the chances of it being a 3.0.0

 

[M7L7NK7]

Pretty sure they all ship as 3.0.1

Take it back, there's a few on the spreadsheet

~40% of all Super Mario Odyssey units are 3.0.0, according to approximated data ranges

Why do tildes look like minus signs on this forum

When do you think will units with 5.0 preinstalled come out?

Also, SMO bundles all come in 3.0.1 right?

The Fnac bundle (FR) with Rayman and Mario + Rabbids came with 4.0.1
(XAJ40032...)

Just checked, the release of 3.0.0 was on 20.06.17 and the first reported console with 3.0.0 was on 22.08.17.
I'd say the first consoles with 5.0.0 preinstalled will hit early may. Might also be earlier because of speed up
production.

 

[RiseKuji16]

Welp. Better to get a Switch ASAP then. Or look for SMO bundles, I guess.

Serial on device matches serial on box: Yes
Region: EUR
Firmware: 3.0.0

Hi.

What version could a XAJ400283XXXXX be?
Looking like possibly above 3.0.1 is that correct?

Thanks in advance.
