Nintendo has reportedly introduced another restriction aimed at the first known Nintendo Switch 2 jailbreak, according to TwistedVoxel.
TwistedVoxel reports that users must update SmileBASIC and Civilization VII to use the games on Nintendo Switch 2. The outlet says the requirement is intended to make exploiting the console through those titles more difficult.
