It appears that several hackers have managed to test the MIG Switch exploit on Nintendo Switch 2, and as expected, it didn’t turn out well.
According to reports allegedly from hackers, when the MIG Switch was tested on a Nintendo Switch 2, it immediately “locked out” the system, effectively bricking it and triggering an endless boot cycle.
After this, the hackers tried to “prod the flash storage” of the ROM, but it also immediately locked out and bricked the Nintendo Switch 2. They claimed that the Switch 2 has the ability to detect “voltage changes that tools cause when scanning the chips”, regardless of how major or minor they are.
The poster who shared this information claimed that they know three hackers experienced in hardware and software modding, and found that regardless of what kind of exploit they attempted, it ends up bricking the system.
Currently, there are no verifiable reports on this information, so it’s best to take it with a pinch of salt. However, if this turns out to be true, it shouldn’t come as a surprise as Nintendo is always finding ways to prevent piracy and homebrew from taking root on their platforms.
