Switch 2 Modding Breakthrough Faces Piracy Hurdle, Nintendo Still Safe for Now
A reported Switch 2 modding breakthrough centers on a userland exploit tied to save data that must be transferred via Nintendo’s Online Service. Unlike the original Switch’s boot ROM flaws that facilitated piracy, this exploit currently cannot enable piracy, keeping Nintendo out of immediate trouble. The future remains uncertain as researchers monitor how or if this vulnerability could be leveraged without online authentication.
