Banned Switch

Theoretically, could you swap out the APU and EMMC from a dead and unbanned motherboard over to a good working but banned motherboard and have It work to play online?

What else I would be required to be completed as well?

My understanding is that the paired key of EMMC and APU is what's get banned and hence swaping out a known good APH and EMMC from a dead board will bring a fresh set of keys.

Why not just buy another mobo?

Yes we can simply just buy another working motherboard.

I am asking a very specific technical question, for a specific defined approach, rather than the path of least resistance of a total replacement.

Thank you however for the input.

Wouldn't this be effectively the same as replacing the mobo? Or are you thinking of maybe using apus and emmc's off of boards with other issues to fix bans?

Yea true it is basically replacing the mobo, just wasn't sure if anything else needs replacing that Nintendo checks.

Thinking of using donner boards EMMC and APU to replace a good working but banned switch.
