<li>While there are various approaches to hacking a Switch, this guide mainly covers the hacking process of early Switch models that are vulnerable to the most accessible `fusée-gelée` exploit. If you have hacked your console through other methods, then you might find some of the sections in this guide familiar and are welcome to skip them (assuming you have prior CFW knowledge). If not, you can join the yuzu Discord server for any additional assistance and details.</li>

<li>This guide is written in mind towards users with early Switch consoles that are vulnerable to the <code>fusée-gelée</code> RCM exploit, as that is the most accessible entryway to load custom firmware and run the tools necessary to obtain the required system files and games.
<li>While there are alternate methods to jailbreaking patched Switch models, instructions for loading custom firmware in this guide may not apply to such other exploits, but the overall dumping process should be mostly consistent.
