Isn’t that generally the case, though? Sure, not rootable on day zero, but usually it is only later models that get some hardware patch, leaving the earliest models with the vulnerability.
I don’t plan to buy one because proprietary, locked down hardware isn’t a great investment compared to PC hardware that can serve a lot of different purposes, but am eagerly awaiting the news of Nintendo’s well-earned pwnage.
Can the launch model be rooted?
Nobody knows yet.
Do you think Nintendo would announce that?
Switch 2: Now with more exploits!
Only time will tell.
No way in hell Nintendo would come out and talk about exploits in their game console. Also if they knew about it they’d fix it first.
…
I’d suggest finding out and being an early adopter.
Unlikely, but you never know.

I think a software exploit is pretty unlikely, but there’s a good chance a modchip one might work.
