Nintendo Switch Roms

If you buy a switch make sure you buy an early model. CEX is good as you can view the serial numbers before a purchase. There’s an early batch of switches that can be jailbroken easily with a small plastic jig. This jailbreak can not be patched by Nintendo due to it being a hardware oversight and not something they can push a software update to fix.

I can't help you as I'm going to be running them on a Steam Deck Emulator rather than a Jailbroken Switch.
I can however point you in the direction of an Emulator and how to get this running (I think I have mine ready, I just need a ROM to test :P)
So from what I understand you don't need to Jailbrake them anymore like the old DS R4's there is a smart card called the MIG Switch which you just download games chuck them on the memory card put it into the MIG then put the card into the switch and your good to go.
I haven't done much research into them so its possible that they could patch against them but from what I saw someone said that they are undetectable. I don't actually have a switch though I have been thinking of buying one and if I do I'll probably get one of these cards simply because the prices they charge for games are daylight robbery.
If they were creating solid quality games like BG3, FF16, Palworld they are worth the price you pay but there are very few quality games worth the price they charge for them. at same time I've got over 50 games in my steam account so I may just buy a steamdeck in the future.
Ouch for nintendo, I thought it was only possible using a jailbreak and maybe homebrew
@Jev MIG Thats the video I watched he didn't really talk about the fact you can download games from internet he said he bought one to backup the games he owns and have them all stored on 1 cartriage but I mean he has to say that or else nintendo could probably get the video taken down I guess.
I'd guess there are other versions of the cards too some better than others.

Yea a new Playstation 2 Memory card exploit that works in the same way came out not too long ago, that allows the use of an sd card
They all say that. As you say, for copyright laws.
Watch any Emulation tutorial and they have all removed links to things such as BIOS (Legally, you must be extracting this from your own console).
Emulation and even these "cards" are totally legal... If you own said console and the software for it.
No one who uses Emulation has all these games
The only issue with this is you need to limit your play to offline. The moment you play one online and are detected they brick your Switch so it can't be used online again.
There are ways around this for the likes of P2/PS3 to gain a BIOS. I previously done this for a PS2 Emulator on my Xbox Series X by essentially setting up a very early version (20GB/60GB version) of a PS3 emulation and extracting the BIOS from the emulation to use as a PS2 BIOS.They all say that.

Can't be sure that there are similar ways like this around other platforms, but there a lot of clued up people out there that find a way.
Are you sure that they can detect it could have sworn when I watched it a month or so back the guy said it couldn't detect if it was a copy, also If your going to online game on a switch then personally buying a proper copy makes sense to me as your likely investing a lot more time into it than say a zelda game or something.
also this bricking rumour was around in PSP, DS, DSI, 3DS, PSP Vita and personally I never experienced it with my PSP or 3DS and even those who said they did had methods to fix them. don't get me wrong it may be possible for them to screw with your console on the switch but could be fake properganda and even if it isn't there will be a work around for it either now or in the future.
Yeah they must be able to, assumingly it's to do with the license attached to the ROM.
I'm part of a Switch modding community on social media and there's always switches being sold that can no longer play online due to it.

Thanks.
Broken links though, I'm finding with a lot of stuff
Tried downloading Pokemon Scarlet - Managed to get a Torrent but it comes as an .exe file - Obviously cautious about running that.
