You read it right. I have the OG Switch (HAC-001) and the newest update broke it. It does not get past the Nintendo logo.

I haven’t hacked my Switch.

It got bricked right after restarting.

Other people have updated and their Switch is somehow fine.

Help…

Verified, I have an original Switch model.

I updated to 17.0.0 just fine. So either you have run out of battery or perhaps it bricked because it had very low power when you updated it. These are just guesses and certainly nowhere near helping with a solution.

The battery was full when it updated

  • 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.
