Sure, I used https://socalconsolemodding.com/, I have the second gen switch. I shipped him a 512GB samsung micro sd card and the switch, no accessories. then i paid him and he shipped it back. his username is https://old.reddit.com/user/L3gendaryBanana on reddit, can message him for more details. very happy with the work and turnaround time.

essentially mine works like this now - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37EHkYqcXb4

i used this gamepad also, the stock ones are too small for my hands, but they work great for multiplayer stuff and for the kiddo - https://amzn.to/4guNgvn

there are much nicer ones, but i'm happy with the size and "bulk" of this one, feels good and makes it more durable feeling to me. and the price was where i wanted it.

just FYI the first gen switch doesnt need a modchip and you got ripped off. I modded my first gen switch without having to open any of the hardware and I only spent roughly $10 USD https://www.ebay.com/itm/403804334372 https://switch.hacks.guide/ is a good resource.

Good for you, but I got what I wanted, I don't feel I got ripped off.

Also, mine is second gen, already checked that jigger thing. I misspoke in other comment.

sorry, didn't mean to piss you off. you said first gen in the original post and in this economy most people would see $140 as something not to be wasted, but go off IG.

your opinion, you know nothing about me, my equipment, my finances.

but go off IG

if IG is instagram, you're dead wrong again and assuming things about me. i don't have an instagram account, nor did i see it on there.

BROTHER IG MEANS I GUESS LMFAO. And again, dont need to know anything about you to know the value of money, regardless of person it has the same buying power.

well, you're just an ass hole. going to just block you, no sweat off my brow.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

okay, not sure why you felt the need to tell me, nor why you felt the need to tell me twice. if I'm an asshole for trying to save someone $140 than so be it
