Steam Deck is looking more and more like a really good alternative and it's kind of making me regret ever getting the switch, which I originally got because of Zelda, really.

Nothing that has come out since, or that could come out in the future, will ever make me regret hitting 360 hours in BotW, reflecting, "Was that worth a dollar an hour? Yes, yes it was." And then playing for another 600 hours.

I bought TotK collectors edition and could not play it on the switch. Ripped my copy, played it on PC emulated at 1440p 60 fps, regret nothing. The Switch has great games, the hardware just sucks. I don't even play mine anymore because I'd rather play the games on PC.

How do you rip switch games without a hacked switch?

Why would you assume they did it without a hacked switch?

Otherwise, the Mig Switch cartridge maker released a dumper as well.

Because I was bad at reading comprehension and didn’t notice he mentioned he had a switch on the first pass.
