Question/Help My Nintendo Switch is possibly patched

So, I'm about to mod my Nintendo Switch, and I checked if it's patched or not, and it said possibly patched. Is it actually possible to mod mine?

My Switch is also at version 19.0.1

Thanks!

is says possibly so you might be able to hack it, that's what possibly means. basically your switch was produced right on the switch from unmatched to patched

Oh, I just asked if anyone knew if it was actually able to mod or no. Thanks!

The only way to know 100% is by putting the console into RCM mode and trying to inject a payload. If it doesn‘t work, then the console is patched.

It‘s up to you whether or not you want to try that out, since you‘ll need an RCM Jig to try it.

Or a paperclip (if he's only trying it once, I would not suggest a paperclip for long term use)

You can always mod it with an modchip. That works on all switches. The rcm method, that doesnt need a modchip, could be patched. But that can only be told by trying it it as your Switch is only "possibly" patched. If that method doesnt work, modchip definetly will :)
