✨ SUPER5 HDMI Mod Finally Shown Off! ✨
After a long wait and some serious doubts, Taki Udon has demonstrated a working prototype of the SUPER5 HDMI mod for the Switch Lite! Here’s the rundown:
Long Road: The HDMI mod was initially promised alongside the SUPER5 OLED screen replacement last year, but faced significant delays. Backers even received emails suggesting it might never* ship.
- Working Prototype: Taki recently shared a video on his secondary YouTube channel showing the mod functioning! 🥳
Not Quite Ready: While working, the current prototype doesn’t* fit inside the Switch Lite’s shell yet. So, release is still a ways off.
- Troubled History: The SUPER5 OLED itself had a bumpy rollout – installation issues, compatibility problems with modchips (for the touch version), and refund discrepancies for backers who removed the HDMI mod from their orders.
- Hold Your Dollarbucks: The advice? Don’t rush to pre-order. Wait for reviews before spending any money!
What do you all think? Is this a sign of good things to come, or another potential delay? 🤔 Let’s discuss!
