I'd just turn it off and keep it offline so that you're on the lowest possible firmware for potential future exploits

Then 🏴‍☠️

From what I've been seeing in the Switch Hacking groups, you might be waiting a very long time. Nintendo has the kernel locked down very tight. I'm hoping that a vulnerability becomes exploitable but those that know more than I are less hopeful

Yea, it might be a wait. I picked up a launch unit just for the purpose of future exploits. I'm just leaving it sealed on a shelf, worst case, I can probably get back what I paid for it in a few years since sealed Nintendo stuff holds their value decently enough.

Like most other people seem to feel about, there's just not enough of a pull for me to want to play it LMAO

Especially since I already haven't played my fully modded Switch 1 in a few months as is xD
