On one hand they do seem to be taking extra DRM steps this time with the cartridges only containing a download key.
On the other hand Nintendo also tend to make really trivial mistakes that blow their consoles wide open so my money is on some remote code execution via the stupid webcam accessory.
Still not as bad as Sony and 3 generations of browser exploits in a row. Or tony hawks games
it'll be a browser exploit. Either they'll ship a full browser as an app or an embedded one for signing into public WiFi. Either way, it'll be the first point of entry while other reverse engineering shit gets figured out. Might not give access to encryption keys or enable homebrew but these devices are always broken eventually.
"the browser is a sandbox" the people exclaim as they get used for remote code execution over and over again
