Strong Points: All-in-one tool for Switch hacking includes convenient case to hold everything it's much easier to avoid losing the small boot up tool because it's all integrated stores up to six customizable payloads built-in 2MB of flash storage makes updating or customizing payloads very easy enables all kinds of crazy customization that the Switch hacking community has come up with, including alternate operating systems The fix requires a hardware revision, and since the Switch is such a hot selling item, that means that there are approximately 15 million vulnerable units out in the wild, and no doubt a sizable portion of Nintendo’s most hardcore fans also desire to use their hardware in ways that Nintendo did not originally intend. It’s in the Tegra boot ROM (Read-Only Memory), and as such, it cannot be patched or changed. Like the SX Pro I reviewed last year, the RCM Loader takes advantage of the massive NVIDIA Tegra CPU flaw that was discovered in 2018. The case makes it convenient to store everything together, and lessens the chance of damaging it or losing any of the small parts.

The USB-C dongle is the heart of the device, and has the USC-C plug, a micro USB-B port, and a button and LED for switching payloads. RCM Loader consists of four parts: a USB-C dongle, a boot-up tool, a micro USB cable, and a case. This RCM Loader supports all of these, as well as three other possible customizable payloads you can add if you choose. SX OS is still quite popular as well, though it is proprietary and costs money. The most common are Atmosphere and ReiNX. Ever since I reviewed the SX Pro about a year ago, the Switch hacking community has been hard at work enabling more and more features in their mostly open source custom firmwares (CFW). I remember modding my PS1 many years back, and I also got flashcarts starting with the GBA so I could carry my library around with me. I have always loved hacking my consoles - as long as I have been a techie, and I'd known it was possible to do so. Thank you Love-Gamecard for sending us this device for review!
