Comment on Nintendo Is Already Punishing Switch 2 Users Over Piracy ‘Suspicions’

  I’m a filthy Switch pirate and I only knew of the name. I didn’t know what it was exactly or how it worked until the recent reporting about it.

    Well if you’re already a pirate you don’t need the MIG or benefit in any way from using it. Presumably you’ve got an Erista Switch or a modchip. The MIG is only for pirating stuff on modchipless Lite/Mariko/OLED/Apparently 2 (but watch out) consoles. It can’t pirate updates or DLC or eshop-only games so it’s always worse than CFW or modchips for those that can use CFW or modchips.

      Yup, I have a modded Erista. Will update the firmware for Metroid Prime 4 and then I probably won’t be playing anything new after that on it.
