Most people probably know what I am talking about, but in case not....
When you insert a micro SD card into your switch, it prompts for a system update. If you take the update, it allows your Switch to use SDXC format cards and exfat file format. As far as I know this update is "safe" in itself as long as you already have 4.1.0. PLEASE Correct me if theres any reason to believe this is incorrect.
Now - If you are less than 4.1.0 (ex: 3.0.0) there is no way to get this update unless you did it while 3.0.0 was current a long time ago.... or maybe this update didn't even exist back then, I don't know.
My question is..... will this be problematic for 3.0.0 users if/when backups can be used? Right now, backups are a single file with an XCI extension. Games can be 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 16GB, 32GB each. The limitations on fat32 are 4GB maximum per file.
Anyone know what the devs have to say about this subject? I guess no one wants to openly discuss piracy which is fair, but not being able to use the larger cards for ANYTHING, even emulators or other homebrew is kind of a bummer.
