Hopefully switch game prices will go down. Eventually they will turn off internet support and I can finally hack it.

If you have a release switch just do it. The switch is cheap enough that if you get banned and really really really want to play am online game, then you can just buy a used one without a dock or joycons.

I have a fusee exploited switch that I installed atmosphere on like 4-5 years ago. Pirate tons of games and haven't been banned.

All you need to do properly follow the steps, and don't play pirated games on sysnand/online

I even used atmosphere on sysnand for a few years and was fine.

Worst case the console is banned and you just buy a new one with all the money you saved not spending $60 on used Nintendo games, and the banned console is still good for literally everything except playing the few online games.

I have a release Switch that my kids accidentally updated to the latest firmware, is it possible to still hack it? Previously I used the team xecuter hack.

Yep the hack is at the boot loader level, before the OS, so the OS version doesn’t matter. It was only patchable in hardware which is what they did with the second revision. If you have a launch Switch you’re golden.

As far as I'm aware, yes, if you use the jig method.
