We all know the 3ds is comically easy to hack, do you think the switch will reach that level of ease?

So only v1 systems can be nodded?

How are things like switch lites modded in that case?

By use of a voltage glitching chip that glitches the chip to bypass checks and inject the boot code. It's a different exploit altogether and requires hardware modding. That method can mod all Switches from Late v1 systems all the way up to the OLED and the exploit might even work on the Switch's sucessor (would require a new chip for the new hardware and likely modifications to the glitching routine)

So, every switch mod needs external hardware?

I mean all the v1 needs is an rcm jig and a pc. Nothing else.
