I just need to backup my saves (It's okay if i have to get all of the nand backed up)
So I was moving a few games from one SD card to another and then out of nowhere my switch tells me that the SD card had been taken out even though I did not touch it and then I took out the SD card and put it back in and restarted my switch and then it said it again and then I kept doing this a couple of times until it finally gave me the error:"failed to initialize SD card" and then I took it to a repairing place, where the repair guy told me that it was irreparable and then I tried turning it on again and now the backlight only turns on. and then I took it to a different repair guy and this repair guy tells me that almost the entirety of the motherboard and everything on it had to be replaced. what do you guys think because from what me and my dad have gathered, the 4 things that could be broken are: the SD card slot or the CPU or The EMMC or the LCD itself. It's less likely that it's the EMMC because it still has the software to boot up and still makes the connection sound in Windows. Also I had to replace the sd slot and an ic once, so I can't replace those because another ic has been broken and to replace that It needs to be heated In order to be removed and replaced and its been heated once
(in my country Nintendo is not very popular and finding professionals is like finding a needle in a haystack which gives me the idea of taking my switch to a phone repair place as they are better with small electronics)
Please just help me I have no backups and I just need to copy my saves before buying a new one
P.s: I have no knowledge of how to fix this, but my dad does know how to solder as it is a part of his job
Batch 1:
And the second repair guy was like: "zoo wee mama jeez Louise it is br-ok-en, broken like sheesh dude it's really broken"
So it's probably beyond saving
Also, batch 2:
