How do I hack the shit out of my oled switch
With a cleaver and buy a steam deck instead
I wish, my pc is no longer capable of running games and I still need it for utilities and such (porn). The switch was a gift but I would probably have bought one anyway to be honest, but now I see the light
From the OLED, of the steam deck?
You're allowed a pc and a steam deck. There's no law against both.
Maybe I dont know how a steam deck works lol I am woefully illiterate when it comes to some tech things. My understanding was that a steam deck still needed a pc to be streaming games from to some extent, is that not the case?
That is not the case. It's a standalone device that you can play pc games on. It is very similar to the switch in design, but able to play a whole lot more. You should definitely look into it.
You get a steamdeck.
Alas, the only easily hackable Switch's were made until about a year after release. To hack modern ones requires a special mod chip that isn't easily soldered on.
Nintendo unfortunately did a good job on hack proofing the Switch.
But you say its still possible?
Yes, and with literally every other console over time it will get easier and easier
I haven't looked into the details myself since I got lucky with my used Switch. But, yeah, it should still be possible.
Yes, but you need a modchip and some knowhow. Or you find a guy
Get a hammer and smash the fuck out of it.
