Reminder that paying Nintendo money is morally wrong and should be avoided when possible. Buy the consoles, sure, but pirate if you have to play the games.
The consoles are the fucking things I don’t want to buy… I’m sick of Nintendo and their “buy my console or fuck you” motto…
I haven’t bought an Xbox since the 360 and haven’t bought a PlayStation since PS4 because I’m so sick of dropping hundreds of dollars on a console for one or two games since the parent companies are assholes and won’t have the games ported to PC. At least Sony and Microsoft got the message that you can have your console and sell the games on PC
The Switch runs even first party Nintendo games like dogshit on top of all that. People will say it’s the developer’s fault, to which I say Nintendo owns the fucking developer so it’s still their fault.
Also, Nintendo is the only console company that doesn’t port to PC. The fuck are all the annoying anti-Epic Store bros when it comes time to yell at Nintendo?
It’s the other way around imo. I don’t want to pay hundreds of euros for a console (which is still just a computer) that is slower than my phone just because Nintendo puts artificial restrictions on what hardware the software they make can run on. I already have a PC that could run those games perfectly fine. Or rather, it can run those games perfectly fine, way better than a Switch actually. Unfortunately, the only way for me to play those games on my PC, without having to buy a console I don’t need, is to pirate them.
So basically, I can either pirate the games for free to play them on my PC or I pay for a console for no other reason but to get the privilege of being able to pay for the games.
Very easy if it was an earlier model, although I’ve seen some of the newer modchips make soldering about as simplified as possible (but still kinda hard, it’s a tiny board to be fiddling with). I literally hacked my current switch with some aluminum foil and tape (my jig broke, I guess), and besides all that all you need is a decent microsd card and the willingness to follow directions
This is a hot take if I’ve ever seen one. I may disagree with this particular action but supporting companies that make games I want to play and are demonstrably fun is never morally wrong.

Shit. How easy/safe is it to hack the Switch?

The world is more complex than that.

No, you didn’t.
