In short, if you happen to hack your Switch or run emulators, you may find that it winds up getting bricked entirely.

Guess who decided not to buy a switch 2 after this news.

(Me)

I don’t want them bricking my shit.

Ima help out with switch emulator projects now instead of just playing their games.

Fuck em.

For real. What will a Switch 2 do that a Steam deck (or one of its several competitors) won't? There are still switch emulators, and there will be switch 2 emulators.

Steam deck - 98% all games, PC, Nintendo, arcade, etc

Switch - Nintendo games only, massive restrictions from an anti consumer company
