What does New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe need? 5.1.0 like Pokemon/Smash or anything higher?

Edit:
New SMB U deluxe does not work on 5.1.0. So I assume 6.1 or 6.2 is needed.

Anyone knows what I need for Civilization VI? Dragon Quest Builders 2?
I got an error installing Civ VI and now have a permanent game loading on my Game menu that won't go away :(
Updating DQB2 and Vesperia also failed in 6.1

NSMBUD works fine here on 5.1.0. Latest SX OS, XCI.
It seems I was using a bad *.nsp file. USB Install on 4.1 threw a "corrupt data" error. Then ChoiDujourNX to 5.1 and fresh install from sd, but still corrupt data. First I thought this error meant "firmware too low"
I will convert the data again from a fresh *.xci. Some people on reddit stated they had the same issue with a bad *.nsp

I am using latest KosmosV1171/Hekate4.6/atmosphere downloaded january 8th.

Edit:
What error would you get trying starting this game on switch firmware 4.1?
Accoring to XCI Explorer this game 4.0/4.1 encryption wise.

Hi, I'm currently on firmware 2.1, can I update using an XCI file (with the update packed inside) to 5.0.1 for instance, in order to bypass updating through the system settings ? I would like to avoid updating to 6.2, at least for now.

so the majority of games that come out of the box doesn't require nothing newer then 5.1 so there is no need for update, if i don't want to play a specific game, since it's kinda risky?

I am on 6.1 and tried to install nsp of feudal alloy even with ignore firmware version it doesn’t load. Is this the first game that requires 6.2? Or maybe there are others but I haven’t encountered them yet?

Every nsp game downloaded from when 6.2.0 came out needs 6.2.0.
This thread is for XCI games.
You can always use for example NSC Builder to rebuild nsp with ignoring 6.2.0 firmware.

This will actually work?? I thought if ignore firmware version doesn’t work when you install with tinfoil for example it means the game is encrypted with higher keys or something and you can’t get around needing the higher firmware to run the game.

NSC Builder let's you erase the titlerights encryption from nsp files.
