How would someone even go about doing that...
and from the Nintendo event I went to, they had people watching what you were doing at all times and the switches themselves weren't accessible.

No. Nintendo learned from their mistakes ages ago.

Some employee will stand with eagle eyes behind you and the second you try to do something you aren't supposed to do, he will whisper "gotcha" in your ear and make disgusting tongue lashing sounds sprinkling saliva all over your face.

Gosh I wish just replying lol wasn't against the rules. There's a reason dumping the BotW demo failed, there won't be a sudden miracle this time.
It wasn't dumped because the WiFi was shit and it was taking too long to move over the network.

This thread should be deleted. There's 0 chance that:

1. Nintendo will leave the USB port open on the demo units.
2. The system is on 1-3 to execute Pegaswitch.
3. Someone will be able to execute the long dump process without being noticed
4. The microSD slot will be accessible to random people.

How did they even try to do that?
Had a kernel exploit for the dev units and ran FTPiiu in the background over the Wi-Fi they had set up in there, or maybe it was a hotspot and just file transfered it over.
EDIT: It might not have been FTPiiu, maybe TCPGecko. I don't remember

Just imagine it, someone goes up there, launches TX/Atmosphere with their phone/a donge/etc. putting their microsd in and dump the smash demo. If someone managed to do that, that would be a hero lol.
But to answer your question, no, the staff there would have to be more than stupid.

Unless any of the tempers in here work for E3/Nintendo and want to risk their job doing this on a demo unit and also presuming that the demo units can easily be hacked I highly doubt it They don't use retail Switches so RCM bug could not work anyways.

You would basically need SciresM himself undercover as a Nintendo employee at the event, to reverse engineer those units so no.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
