Switch 2 reportedly cracked by software exploit, Nintendo pulls title

A developer named Sammy 'pepsipu' Hajhamid, assisted by OpenAI's Codex, claims to have built a software-only tethered jailbreak called 'ns2jb' for the Switch 2. Nintendo has reportedly delisted the programming software SmileBASIC 4 from the eShop following the supposed discovery. Whether this is a genuine vulnerability or a premature claim, the move indicates Nintendo is responding to the reports.

Do you think software-only exploits will become a bigger concern for console makers going forward?
