With the release of the new Mig Flash Cart Nintendo will see a huge surge in sales. But what will nintendo do about this new flash card? Is Nintendo going to Sue the Russian team?

[@keiz_]

I really really hope they add firmware that allows you to select the game native from the switch, if it doesn't happen, while it sucks, it'll be okay. Something else I'd love to see you compare once you get your unit, is comparing the loading times, and performance in game compared to a native cart. I've seen another review briefly touch on it only when opening the game, and the mig switch seems slower. I wonder if that would be fixable via firmware

[@GearsAndTech]

I've seen that video too. I'll be doing my own test in a way that is more diffinitive for proof

[@GearsAndTech]

True. But ever drive doesn't come with risk of making a legit game possibly cause console ban

[@cjbht19minaret]

moddedhardware has a ship in service to mod the switch starting at $80. The mig switch and dumper go for around $125 before tax and shipping. A modded switch is safer as it creates a sandbox environment to play your backed up games. A mig switch run on the nintendos operating system so it is more likely to be banned. With the mod you can exit out of the sandboxed environment and go online when you are done.

[@GearsAndTech]

I don't think that's true. But also you can't do online then

[@brendonhope]

“Can I use this for piracy” Waste of money if you can’t tbh.

I’d definitely love to win the mig switch. I have some ideas of bypassing the check for it being an owned copy or maybe randomize it but it always checks good whether it’s a good number or not.

Great work again my dude! Soon we will have a PC Companion and a easier way to dump your switch games from a hacked switch . Sucks that this pretty much emulates the gard card slot so right now no menu will be possible so no 500in1. From my understanding with the DS scene it was actually launching a software exploit where as this would not be. This is just my understanding so far.

[@GearsAndTech]

yes, true to a point. But, we are half way there. Next step is figuring out how to run a modified game off it. Which I believe is possible, just havent had a great way to get the game to run on an virgin switch until now.

Would be nice if they added in a firmware update. Nocturnal mode.. it takes the switch to offline mode and allows you to play "backed up games" Dummy bin and certificate files so if you only have the game files, it vreates a dummy bin and certificate files that are universal. Nand wiper - so it either creates a nand file stored on the mig switch so nintendo doesnt get suss about game data snd playing pirated games and makes it appear that the switch hasnt played any games that aren't official

would just playing in airplane mode be safer then playing online

[@GearsAndTech]

Yes

[@Banditmax20]

@@GearsAndTech ok, just wondering cause something popped up in my head. Like just play the mig games in offline mode so they can’t ban you. So, let’s say when you do get online without the mig will they see you played a stolen backup and ban or no. Been look up that info but everything seems to just be about playing online with mig only

My honest opinion about this whole mig switch device Nintendo and the Nintendo ninjas are going shut this whole mig switch operation down IMO and to many problems are going to arise from this product for everyone all around in general again this is IMO

[@GearsAndTech]

You may be right

[@retrobros9684]

Nah. The genie is out of the bottle. They will need a new card slot to halt this at all. They can stop some but not all. If they wanted to prevent this kind of action they'll need to remove the slot entirely. Let's see

The only bit I dont understand is what use is it without the dumper as you cant get your games onto it without a dunper ?

[@GearsAndTech]

Exactly But if you and a few friends share 1 dumper you can save some money

Lol, he is making it up. Games number depends on sd card size. 1tb will hold at least 20 good games

It's gonna be a risk buying a switch unpatch and getting banned is not the best thing I can hear about. You got banned you can't update from nintendo servers.

[@GearsAndTech]

Right

[@yayyayyyyalisa]

You an update the system firmware and game updates/DLC manually.

[@electricstyle2302]

@@yayyayyyyalisa No, you can't. The game won't run if your game version is higher than the expected switch version. I have a sx os switch. It will pop out some error and the game won't run. If with the mig switch you need some software to manipulate the switch to update. That means that you need some new operating system to run in a patch switch.

[@cap1m106]

Its possible to do a reverse engineering and this way nintendo can make an update to invalidate this device?

[@GearsAndTech]

It's hard, but possoble

[@u_numb]

very unlikely and even then you gotta update your device for it but then you can use old software and play offline

I'm a Soviet collector as well as a gamer and I just so want one hehehe I am surprised the powers that be haven't wagged the patriotism dog on this one claiming that its makers enjoy live puppy sandwiches with President Putin before they hug up with Iran, North Korea and Yemen in a 5 way bromance, sort of thing :P I don't care, my Soviet watch collections value has skyrocketed since Uncle Vlad did his ting...
