So, I've done as usual and went through the megathread looking for the stuff I need. Since nsw2u has been taken down, I hadn't downloaded any Switch games, and tried out grabbing Metroid Dread on NXBrew since it was tagged as GOAT. Unfortunately, when I tried downloading from there, their link redirector sent me into fucking limbo and hit me with a Trojan, that I swiftly removed.

So, should that website's status still be rated that high? I couldn't reach any of their actual downloads, since they all go through the same shitty redirector.

It is working fine to me. Are you behind a good web browser and ad blocker?

In addition to an ad blocker, make sure you're using the .net site and not the .com one.

The list needs to be updated. Lots of sites no longer work.
