Hackers release Switch web browser

GN Version 5.0

Nintendo still hasn't released their own Switch web browser, nor have they given users access to the browser that's already sitting inside the Switch. That's why hackers have stepped up to do the job for them.

A hacker has released BrowseNX, which is an app that utilizes the Switch’s hidden web browser. BrowseNX lets you use that built-in browser to visit any site you want, and gives you easy access to it through the home menu.

Obviously, you'd have to hack your Switch to gain access to BrowseNX. While having easy access to a fully-functioning web browser on the Switch would certainly be welcome, I can't imagine that many people would hack their Switch with the sole purpose of grabbing this app.
