Just a few days after my last hacking update, a significant new development in the field of Nintendo Switch 2 hacking has just come to light.

PlayStation security researcher Gezine has unveiled a new, firmware-independent userland exploit that reportedly works on both the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo Switch 2. Although this is NOT a public jailbreak or custom firmware, it is nonetheless an important milestone in ongoing security research on the Switch 2.

In this video, we cover the following topics:
• What Gezine discovered
• Why this is NOT (yet) a jailbreak
• Why exploits targeting save data were ruled out
• ARM64-ROP explained
• Firmware compatibility
• Nintendo telemetry and error logging
• What this means for the future of Switch 2 hacking

⚠️ Currently, there is NO public Switch 2 jailbreak or custom firmware available.

Tinfoil has been one of the most well-known Nintendo Switch homebrew applications for years, but development has slowed down significantly and many users have been asking me the same question:

"Why isn't Tinfoil working anymore?"

In this video, I'll explain what happened, why Tinfoil is no longer the go-to choice for many users, and introduce Cyberfoil, a new project that has been gaining attention within the Nintendo Switch homebrew community.

This is NOT a setup tutorial. Instead, it's an overview of the current state of Switch homebrew and where things may be heading next.

Even in 2026, your old Nintendo Switch is still secretly one of the most interesting consoles to mod.

In this video, we’ll explore why the modern Nintendo Switch homebrew scene seems more mature than ever: controller support, save backups, custom skins, overlays, game streaming, media playback, retro frontends, and advanced tools that make the original Switch seem surprisingly powerful today.

This is not a general modding tutorial, a guide to exploits, a guide to piracy, or a video about online cheating. The goal is to show what legal homebrew apps and community tools can do once set up, why people are still interested in Switch modding even in 2026, and what risks you should be aware of before you touch anything.

The apps and tools covered include Atmosphère, Hekate, MissionControl, JKSV, NXThemes Installer, Ultrahand Overlay, Moonlight-Switch, NXMP, RetroArch, and Horizon OC.

Nintendo Switch modding is no longer just about the question “Can you mod it?” The better question is: What can a modified Switch actually do in 2026?

⚠️ Important: Homebrew is not piracy. This video is intended solely for discussing legal homebrew applications, customizations, backups, and analyzing the ecosystem. No piracy, no cheating in online mode, and no bypassing paid
