20.1.5 looking OK here on emunand :)
After all, as I have emuNAND too with 19.0.1 and everything works fine. Is updating FW worth it?

I would like stay in emuNAND and only update to use SysNAND for point situation.

Is it possible. May I need to update atmosphere and hekate even if i don’t want to update FW of emuNAND?

If you're using lots of sys-modules, go back to 18.1.0 as it has the most memory available for sys-modules (around 40 MB). 19.0.1 has around 24 MB so it's not that bad, while 20.x.x has only 14 MB.
You probably aren't missing out on too many things if you update your system to the latest except for a game or two, not sure which ones.
 
Hi,
my sons switch is currently i am on fw1.9.x can anyone confirm if it is safe to update to the latest FW2.1.5?
will the latest sigpatches, atmosphere , hekate, fusee... work on this? Or better to update to 2.1.0?
Thx 😉

Atmosphère. Hekate. Sigpatches/sys-patch. Are supported. But some sysmodule are not, upgrade only if is strictly necessary
 
Is anyone running Smash mods on 20.1.5? My mods were just working fine last week on 20.1.1, and now that I've updated the game just crashes completely on startup. Does anyone know why this would happen?
 
Didnt know the gex collection needed firmware 20.0.1.0 to run, oh well. Can always use either retroarch or duckstation to play the games from the gex collection.

base does but the update has a master key of 18.0, which is weird as it's usually the other way round. source from nfo files
 
I wonder if DBI patches the game somehow to make it run on a lower firmware or something? I think I've seen other users mentioning it in the past but I'm not sure how to get the real info whether it's possible or not to run a certain game on a lower firmware. @duckbill007 I wonder if you can help us out?

SAK "Swiss Army Knife" lets you patch games to lower firmware. Was useful when SX was abandoned at FW 11. Most newer titles don't won't nowadays tho.
If you load a game file (nsp,xci) into NXFileviewer, it will tell you the FW version required based on the SDK kit used to build the game. Usually going from major FW (ex: 21 to 20) is impossible.
