Just found out the Switch I got a while back is a V1 model, meaning that it’s one of the Switches that’s able to be modified. I’m thinking of modifying it, but I’d like to know the upsides and issues first.

    Pros: modified os

    Cons: if it gets banned by Nintendo, you’re fucked. (It happened to me and I’m still mad I had to buy a new one)

      You’re only fucked if you want to pay them to play online. Other than that you can still play all your singleplayer and local multiplayer games.

    I had/have modded PS1, xbox 360, wii, ps2, 3ds and switch. Modded them all myself

    I used/use all of them a lot but not the switch. To much hassle in my opinion. Keep it and play exclusives if you really want them. Safe some money and do the rest on a steamdeck oled. No hassle and play all the backups you want.
