Time Setting script lets you launch the NES golf game on your Nintendo Switch
The following is for hackable Nintendo Switch firmwares, namely 3.0.0 or lower.
Developer jam1garner has added a script to the Pegaswitch repository that lets you set the system time of your Nintendo Switch. The main use case for this is to be able to launch the easter egg golf game (“flog”), which can theoretically only be launched on July 11th.
Users of the script can now set their console’s system timer to July 11th, then follow the instructions to launch the hidden golf game. As mentioned above, this requires your console to be hackable, which can only be done with firmware 3.0.0 or lower at the moment.
Download
Since the dev’s announce, the script has been merged into the reswitched repository. You can get all the scripts there, then follow the readme to run scripts.
To run (courtesy of reddit):
- Host Pegaswitch with Node 2.
- Set Switch’s DNS to IP address of your PC
- connect, then run: evalfile ./usefulscripts/setRtc.js

Can’t you just… change the clock yourself?
No. Once the system connects to the internet, it syncs with the internet RTC and remains that way. Manual won’t fix it. Creating an Internet RTC spoofer is the only way with those systems
Would be amazing if they had managed to dump a copy of the 2.0.0 update file or any below 3.0.1
so you could update the same way through your pc without wasting money one a game cart that
will never be used. I’m currently on 1.0.0 and hoping for a way to manually update
Guy just buy Pokken Tournament DX from walmart, update to 3.0.0 and return the game the same day.
I don’t have walmart where I live ),: Could buy it and have it under my bed without
unpackaging it and return it within a month if there is something that pops up.
I feel like it could be best to keep it on the earliest version to keep all possibilities.
Just gonna have to use my second one until there is any breakthrough. Also were
updating to a specific firmware possible on the wii u, 3ds or ds?
uh dude you bugging buy pokken tournament because they are known to change cartridge updates buy asap otherwise you might end up stuck on 1.0 don’t necessarily have to update just have handy. Read Daeken posts on gbatemp he has made it clear you need 3.0….
How do you return an opened game to walmart? They only replace it with the same game, and no refund.
Exchange game because of “defect” return next day with either A. No l receipt. B. Or with receipt and say you don’t want it.
Both work fine usually employees don’t care.
Exchange doesn’t mean it was open, no way to notate receipt.
Your welcome 🙂
Nice finding but not interested. I will pass.
