Description
Part 4. In Part 2 I said Nintendo's lock was working. The same day, a security researcher had already picked it: a tethered Switch 2 jailbreak, built by an expert working with an AI coding agent for about two weeks. That same week Sony shipped its second PS5 update in three weeks, Microsoft started charging Xbox Insiders by the hour to stream games they already own, and Valve stayed quiet while Steam Next Fest filled with AI clones. Then the September sales numbers came in.
