Apparently, a lot of people might have requested this for Xmas, as it "seems" to be coming soon:

That's cool, but I will not pop any champagne before having trustworthy people using it.
Since anyone can just 3d print a flimsy cartridge and fake the footage, happened before on other products after all.

Really cool stuff, but I don't forsee that this enables any homebrew stuff. Looks like it's mainly for piracy.
I mean, it might be possible to use it as an entry point if it's real.
A bit unlikely due to the consoles security, but not impossible.
Welp. Hope I didn't just recently waste $ buying a mint V1, jig, microsd card, screen protector, etc. lol
Do Switch retail games have any unique ids that would prevent using this thing online?
wow imagine if we could boot games from ssd/hdd when docked instead of pushing up and down a new revolutionary pirate gamecard xD... But seriously what is the use case of it, can it run rips of games safely on og/non hacked system or what?
I'm skeptical about this because of the online, I think it's going to be hard not to get banned using this, i guess wait and see.
Each physical cartridge has a unique ID, even the same game will have a different ID, and Nintendo has banned specific IDs from ever going online due to ROMs being leaked.
Am I the only one who finds it useless?? It's easier to stick the sd card in it's slot than using a cartridge adapter 
But for piracy on unmodded Switches?Am I the only one who finds it useless?? It's easier to stick the sd card in it's slot than using a cartridge adapter

I don't think Nintendo is going to be happy with this one.
For v2 and upwards it's a god send not to have to use a modchip. But to each their own.Am I the only one who finds it useless?? It's easier to stick the sd card in it's slot than using a cartridge adapter
But nothing is said about it, so it's in "maybe" land.
You mean by fooling the switch making it think that an original cartridge was inserted instead of the SD card??
If yes, then I think they'll implement something against it

Suppose it would possibly have to get past the game cart authentication too. Gateway, also known as Xecuter, uses their own proprietary custom firmware to emulate a physical cart. If this developer manages to get this to work without custom firmware, then I'll be damned.
That had been already explained dozens of times. But I wonder if this flashcart could spoof a fake ID to circumvent bans?
No use to speculate yet really since no real proof it exists except from this video
