I crack up at all the people on Lemmy insisting that this isn't pirating or about pirating. Yes it is. I pirate too, don't bullshit me guys. This isn't about Nintendo being an evil company, cause they keep their games exclusive, just like Microsoft does with PC games and nobody bitches. This isn't about Nintendo being selfish, it's about people who want to copy switch games, mod them, share them, and act as if it's a thing the copyright holder should be happy about lol
Again I pirate, so let's be honest, this whole thing is about ways to easily pirate and backup switch games, not the integrity of gaming.
All the popular switch games have already been dumped & shared online. The cart that lets you download and play those came out MONTHS ago.
THIS cart is so you can download and backup your OWN Switch games, something I want just so I don't lose my save data. Thanks for loudly assuring everyone that you know fuck-all about any of this though!
~~Does this require using a modded switch or can anyone buy this hardware and back up their own save data?~~
edit: Nvm, sounds like you can't back up your own save data with this, you would need homebrew, damn.
The thing I feared but dared not speak when it occurred to me...
