Nintendo hacker Gary Bowser has denied involvement with a newly revealed Nintendo Switch flash cart.Bowser was released from prison last year after receiving sentencing for being part of a group known as Team-Xecuter that was creating devices that allowed users to play illegally obtained ROMs on consoles such as Nintendo Switch and 3DS.
He still has to pay £8million ($10million) in court-ordered damages to Nintendo, however.The flashcart, named MIG-Switch, was announced last month and is claimed to allow owners to play illegally obtained ROMs.
It’s worth noting, however, that an official disclaimer from MIG-Switch states that the device is intended only for use for legally owned games.“Mig-Switch does not approve the use of its device with ROMs of games that you do not own, downloaded from the internet or owned by a friend or any outside source.
