I have two switches and one was accidentally updated to 6.0.1 Is it true that the game updates are no longer possible? This seems to be the case AFIAKT. Also Is there in fact no way to down grade because of the fuses?
SX OS is compatible with FW 6.0.1, but if there's no need, you can keep the original firmware.Sorry if I enter!
soon I get a new switch, can I upgrade it to the last FW 6.0.1 and use SX OS?
Good!SX OS is compatible with FW 6.0.1, but if there's no need, you can keep the original firmware.
Oh yeah, you're right XD Initially, soft bans didn't block game updates and only CDN bans did but then Nintendo changed the way bans work around the time firmware 6.0 dropped so now soft bans block eShop, online play, and game updates. The only difference between a soft ban and a CDN ban is that CDN bans prevent online system firmware updates."What? Uh, game updates are not possible if you're banned."
That is the first I heard of that. I have always updated my game when banned. But now I see this

so its a wash then for updates.
Thx, for the tip, I figure the update was a one way road.
.... if you downgrade with burnt fuses, you can only boot up the console by going into RCM then using a bootloader that bypasses the fuse check (e.g. Hekate, SX OS V1.2+, ReiNX, & Fusee) and even if you do, you lose sleep mode support.
When you are running a firmware lower than your fuse count, the console will refuse to wake up from sleep mode.Can you explain more about “losing sleep mode support”?
You can also use ChoiduJourNX within SX OS to upgrade to FW 6.0.1 without burning fuses, so you can use latests games updates that require FX 6 (Mario Kart and others) and also have a chance to go back to former firmware in case.
what about games that requires fw 6+ is there a homebrew to run those games on 5.1?You still don't need to upgrade your firmware. Just install the updates with a homebrew app that disables that firmware check. You can run all of those updates just fine on firmware 5.1
