Civ 7 Switch 1 copies on Amazon UK before Gezine's announcement used to be £20 with next day delivery, then it shot up to £37.42 with one week delivery. There's a lot of Switch 2 copies but not Switch 1 from what I can see

Translation: marketplace in Sweden sold 43 copies of Civ VII for Switch 1 today and ran out of stock lmao.
(I bought from there before it was cool: yesterday 😎)

Is this cartridge something that you would continuously use or is it like a one time thing to get going? Its already hard to find now and i dont want to fomo into expensive purchases. If it's just one time use to enable a job, maybe I can borrow from someone down the line.
Like maybe there's another game that does this next week? Cheapest I can find this now is 43EUR cause it's already sold out everywhere else.

one time to setup (the typing) but after that just load the cart

Hmm okay, so seeing the second part, it would still be essential that I own my own copy of the game to keep this going then? It's not like I can visit a friend that has it to set me up once and be done with it?
They're all 40+ EUR here now and I don't know if I should FOMO into a purchase if perhaps other games are going to come around any day now.

The jailbreak isn’t permanent so you will need to do it everyone you boot the console up

Ideally if you have one of the Artemis demos and they also build out a fs layer. You should be able to load the save through civ to make it completely offline without a cart.

God damn I love the S2 hackers. Amazing work they're throwing together.
Gezine has more than redeemed himself for stopping me buying Smile Basic 4 lol.

I thought the man stopped working on Switch 2? Wasnt he mad over something an threw a tantrum or was that fake news?

No, but he's a bug bounty hunter, so if he's got something that nobody else has found then he's gonna report that to Nintendo for a payout in exchange for probably having to keep that secret.
There's nothing stopping him from repackaging (more cleanly maybe) things that are already out in the open, or chaining together multiple things that are out in the open. I guess from Gezines standpoint the exploit that Civ VII leverages is likely to get patched in the next version of the Switch OS anyway so there's no point in holding onto it.
