Nice, I have the newest OG Switch so now I can finally do some overclocking and emulation. Or is that not what this enables?

 

[eyesabitdull]

Cool.

Now explain this to me like I'm a 5-year old.

I hope this will enable untethered CFW on my 2017 Switch.

They now have more access to the security system of the exploitable V1 Switch. But you still need an entry point to use this exploit. That mean it is useless on V2/lite and the OLED Switch.

What does it mean for me who already had a hackable V1 Switch, can I do more stuff with my hacked Switch

Nintendo will send their private investigators in for the hunt, then call their lawyers in for the kill. Those who played a role in leaking these keys will get sued and go to jail. Japanese jails include forced labor.

I think now that the Switch is getting easier to emulate on PC the demand for hacking Switched isn't there like it used to be. Anyone who has a gaming PC or laptop are running Metroid Dread in 4K.

The keys itself are not leaked. This is only a tutorial how you can copy parts of the hash value from these keys. If you collect enough hashes you can than calculate the real keys from this hashes. It is only a mater of time till somebody release the keys.

Considering you need files from your own hacked Switch to legally emulate the games with Yuzu on PC, anything to make the process easier would be nice.

Well if legality matters that much (and good for you), this is not what you are looking for. As I understand it, this is pure copyright infrigement and unauthorized use of trademarked product

Lets be realistic not many will use their own files, when playing no one dumps their cartridges or CDs to play on an emulator. Even if they own the game it is easier to download from the internet than dumping your own files.

For example I own a copy of Suikoden 2 from PS1 Classics for PS3. As my PS3 isn't plugged in and I have no idea how to dump the game or if it's possible I simply downloaded the game with a few clicks to be able to play it on my tablet. Technically it's illegal but let's be honest no one gives fuck especially if you own the game.
