Good luck getting one. I was on the pre order and my order sat for like 6 months. They told me a few times in emails "don't worry, it should be shipping next week!" then they went silent a gain for a while. I finally asked for a refund.

I hear you can get knock offs already from wish though.

I ordered a mig switch dumper and it took 2 months to ship, but I did eventually get it.

[–] Carighan@lemmy.world 14 points 7 months ago (1 children)

This is from 6 months ago. Yeah we all heard about it, so where is it?!

[–] hylobates@jlai.lu 11 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Nowhere. You cannot pre-order it anymore, it just vanished.

[–] hate2bme@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It's on ali with free shipping.

[–] Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

[–] hate2bme@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

No maybe. I got one

Nintendo is suing the makers of the MIG cart.

I saw something about UnlockSwitch, I didn't look into it much. It was mentioned that it is open source software and compatible with the MIG FW. Also saw some things about clones on AliExpress as usual. I haven't looked personally

https://migflash.store/

this is supposedly the webstore and it looks to be selling the MIG now with fast shipping for anyone who wants to verify

Last I heard they took him to court and ordered him to send them all his carts. I'll have to look into it more

[–] NickKnight@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

For legal reasons I cannot say who but yeah, they are shipping and being delivered and version 2 has the switch on top to switch cartridges instead of clicking in and out AND the dumper works great, about 5 minutes to get the xci for most games and then throw on the SD and / or your steam deck or suyu device of choice.

Pretty sure I saw thr first articles of this pop up before my move from Reddit... So a year ago, perhaps more?

It's basically old news.
