It seems Nintendo has a history of their consoles being jailbroken via common household items

Jailbreak: a way to unlock the full potential of your device.

That's how we get Switch Pro, guys. We just have to find another ROM bug, and Nintendo will be forced to order a new, improved chip from nVidia.

You're soft-spoken voice and warm lighting make for a nice escape from all the annoying content out there right now even from some of my favorite creators , you're the perfect example of not needing to over do your showmanship in order to get your point across while being entertaining.

Just to clarify, you should not use the paperclip or tinfoil methods to do this, sure it works, but you risk scratching the connectors and possibly cause them to stop working right; it can damage the connectors in the rails, always use a jig, they are design to be less damaging to the connectors.

Fascinating stuff. Reminds me of the old PSP jailbreaking days.

Me in 2019 looking to buy a switch: I better make sure it’s the new battery life version. Me in 2022 getting interested in emulation and watching videos about jail breaking: dammit!

It seems Nintendo's biggest foe when it comes to security is small metal objects

All hail the power of the paper clip 📎

Heck, I don't even finish the games. Sometimes, I enjoy the process of jailbreaking more than actually playing the games. Make some themes, customize and file transfer lol.

Was googling around because was curious if it had been done. Incredibly well made video with some fantastic background information.

I'm tempted to get the OLED switch so I can transfer my current Switch profile to it, then homebrew my original Switch for emulators and other apps. Nintendo just isn't doing it for me at the moment when it comes to their older games. The state they released OoT in should make them ashamed, and still no Gameboy titles on the Switch as of yet either. This console deserves so much more.

Cool tip if you don't want to connect to the internet with your jail broken switch. You can use a second switch by buying one or use your friends switch to send you game updates via Bluetooth. Nintendo Switch has this amazing feature that let you use Bluetooth to share a game update to another switch so you guys can be on the same game version without connecting to the internet and it's used for Lan parties but great for a modded switch as well.

You can jailbreak the new improved battery one if you have soldering skills and the proper modchip. I did it in my friend's Switch Lite.

This was the first time I’ve ever watched one of your videos and I actually found it quite chilled and calming compared to over tech channels. It was a nice break. Keep up the nice videos

Please keep finding more ways for us to be able to do what we want with this consle

Your videos are so full of information, well done, and coincise! Hope you channel can grow soon!

such clarity and depth! amazing video tho 3.8k subs just isn't enough

One of the hardest nintendo devices to mod… Not because it’s hard to do, but because all nintendo consoles previously only needed an sd card, this one needs a paper clip as well as an sd card.

really love your content man, wish u had a larger following

Hey glad I found your channel very informative

I feel like if I'm buying a product I should be able to do whatever I want with it

Just a quick question, where did you get the joy cons from? They are so nice 😁

i truly love my modded switch themes, stream ps4/5 to switch to play games portable, retroarch - emulation, android etc the list can go on. i paired it with a battery pack which give me extra 10 hours of battery and has a similar kickstand as the oled.

thanks for your soft voice its 12:16 at night and your making me sleepy '.o

The Wii was originally jailbroken by tweezers. That’s how the main dev team got their name. Team Twiizers

subbed. loving the chill vibe

Find it funny that this is not the first time that you could jailbreak a Nintendo console by pinching or touching something on the system with a simple tool. The wii could run custom code by touching 2 pins with something simple like tweezers

Good video very informational man 👍👍

Too bad we can't install Linux and Android on Mariko powered devices... I don't really like v1 Switch, it gets quite hot and has terrible battery life. Even with thermal mod (removing copper shim between Tegra chip and heatsink + reapplying thermal paste). But the fact it can be jailbroken like that makes it golden.

WII jailbroken with a tweezers , Switch with a paperclip....Damn imma try the next console with a needle🤷🏾

Great video I love the connections to 1983

Great video break down

Great video - keep up the good work and by this time next year you’ll probably have at least 100K Subs, that’s what I predict.

Those controllers look super nice

Bro where did you get those joycon shells? They’re awesome!

I sold my computer to buy a second moddable switch. Have wanted one for a long time and this year it finally happened.

Fantastic had to subscribe, I need to jail breack my switch

If you still use a paperclip as a jig, be careful not to allow pin 4 to touch any other pin. Pin 4 supplies 5 volts of power to the joycons, which if it touches any other pin, reroutes the power to the console and basically fries the hardware.

All hail the paperclip! and tweezers in Wii era!

Great content 👍👍👍

why with a paperclip i would think a paperclip would only open doors not completely jailbreak a nintendo switch well done on your work keep it up!

He forgot to mention how all switches are still technically moddable, with a little soldering skills and a purchase from a sketchy website

Ur videos r rlly good

There's ALWAYS a way around their security measures. But those ways are way more technical and time consuming and most ways involve equipment that most people have never even heard of others require building of new circuits and gadgets on the spot but TRUST me when I say there Is ALWAYS a way around it. 😉

Invoking mvg with a title like that

I had a possibly patched switch it was patched after checking I got one in nice deal along with extra brand new extra set of joycons which itself is close to 6500 inr or 80 dollars with full set of unpatched switch in unused condition for about 20k inr ( 250 dollars ) feeling so nice didnt have to buy those expensive switch games now I believe in future the unpatched switch price will rise exponentially unless a soft modding exploit arrives for v2 or the chip for modding switch clone comes and its sold super cheap

This reminded me of the time the Wii was also jailbreaked with tweezers!

Your voice sounded like watching an ASMR but with informative content; But it's kinda interesting how this exploit works, I wonder what the person who discovered it was doing, if it was somehow an accident or he knew what he was doing to achieve that

Damn it took you that long to find a paperclip.. works since about day one..

Their devices securities are not even strong the fact that Yuzu (Switch emulator) was first released literally less than year after the Switch came out is insane.

From the folks that brought you the tweezers... PAPERCLIP!!!

I've been studying to become a cyber specialist the last several years. I really like your content, you are well spoken and great at giving good info Thanks for the education!

The switch paperclip the wii twezers💀💀💀

Yo where did you get those sick shells my man I've been looking EVERYWHERE

for the wii, it was a tweezer, now its a paperclip. next up we gonna be using staples

So great video

6:22 Funny part here is: Kate submitted a bootrom bug for up to a $200k bounty without consent from the person who found it. And that's a massive breach of trust.

Jailbreak:Paper clips second coming

this is giving me Team Twiizers vibes

god, yes. I am doing this immediately.

Watching Halo 3 being played on the Switch made me do the biggest double-take in 2023 so far.

Are you able to flip back and forth between the homebrew interface and the original stock operating system? If so, will your system be detectable if you go online?

They went from tweezers to a paperclip...

DIRE QUESTION does this work with patched switches like for example the XKW1 model?

2:55 bruh flippin’ the audience off! 😂

i don't know why, he looks like a crackhead gamer version of rick astley

Your voice is so welcoming😅

spooky asmr

Thanks for your video. Bought a used switch recently which has been manufactured in 2018 and thus doesn't have the Tegra X1 plus chip (It's the Pokemon Edition). On ismyswitchpatched however, it still says that it is patched and doesn't support jailbreaking. Can you explain to me why?

Is this available for all switches or just those unlatched ones?

On the thumbnail the fact on the Nintendo switch showing deltaruin bigger then the other games scares me.

Wii: jailbroken with a pair of tweezers. Switch: jailbroken WITH A FRICKIN PAPERCLIP

Was that switch running TWRP Recovery? I've been in the Android dev community since 2011, and that sure looked like TeamWin Recovery Project.

The Wii: Tweezers The Switch: Paper clip Some things don't change much huh lmao

reminds me of the wii back in the day the wii was hacked by a paper clip

2023 its actually very hard to find a switch that u can jailbreak using this method.

Who would win in a fight. The great and all-mighty Nintendo or Clippy? Now we know. XD

My switch is "possibly patched" but I'll try to mod my switch....this year...and hopefully it doesn't break...like my beloved 3ds was

Could you do a video on the progress of jailbreaking the latest versions of the switch? I want to know if people are actually working on that or not.

I didn't know this was an asmr channel

funny that they say "just a paperclip" and the rcm loader

I got my switch before the lite and new chip came out so I probably have one of the ones you can do this with, but I would never do it, I would love for Nintendo to make an update for something we can download to watch films on, without having to watch them on youtube if you have bought them, I would just like to put in an SD card of films I have already downloaded and watch them, that's the only thing am missing from the switch or to watch Disney plus. If they could add them two things I would love my switch even more than I already do lol.

So all you need is the rcm and the jig with a unpatched switch and thats it?

So long story short you need much more then a paper clip 😂

Like the wii that got jailbroken with tweezers

Should I get new joycons? My joycons been messing up I don't know if is the system or the joy-cons. I click on the left joycon when in hand held it says is not inserted when it is. Same with the right hand and Is only playable detached

Somehow I managed to snag an old switch from gamestop during 2022 it was pre-owned and the one that had the exploit and I got mods running on it. very lucky.

Hey One quick question do you know how to install Smashline Hook and the NRO Hook (Beta) On Nintendo switch? I Just don’t know how to set it up.

Cool video

But how do I know if my switch is such a model wich I can jailbrake?

ah yes, the sequel to tweezers

What theme is that? I like it and want to use it for my own switch (yes it has cfw)

What if I want to play a game that I have legitly purchased, but wish to play on an unsigned device that I own?

Do you know how to get the retailer softwhere on the swich aka the swich you can play on display at a GameStop

Could you please tell me where did you buy the Joycon shells? Thanks in advance.

I'm not buying an RCM jig so I be taking my chances with this and becareful doing so

Funnily enough, the paperclip wasn’t the jailbreak… in fact, it still will make the console enter recovery mode to this day. The exploit was INSIDE the recovery mode, and was called fusée gelée… so it’s not as basic as it sounds (although it is just a classic buffer overflow exploit with some extra stuff, so I guess you can technically call it simple) What I’m trying to say is that the title of the video is kinda misleading

Will jailbreaking my switch alone give me the ability to retrieve lost photos and videos I accidentally deleted? I’d never do this otherwise but I really want those videos and photos back.
