Having copy of emunand is good in case when eMMC will be corrupted or dead. Then you can always load emunand by RCM.
I also always have copy of nand on sd card and also my PC, but about eMMC on gbatemp someone show option to changemit to bigger one, you could find it if you wanna...

Why lose 32GB when you can install game to the available space on the system of Emunand? Say 25GB or so.
You do not actually lose 32 GB. The computer actually displays it like that but when you go onto EmuNAND it shows both system memory and SD memory. The ystem memory is actually 25GB free on EmuNAND. So al data including my 64GB sd card can actually store 50gb worth of games. EmuNAND actually takes 7-10GB but the computer displays it as taking 32GB. If y'all confused I can post a few screenshots.

Yes. You can install NSP to the system of emunand to take advantage of the available space. The rest can be considered as nand backup, including 2xprodinfo boot0/1 etc...

Any known issues? Or should we all update basically?

some users have had issues with hidden partition emuNAND not booting, seems to be an SD card issue from what I can see (or too much data on their existing SD cards not allowing the update as not enough space maybe?).. affects some users, doesn't affect the majority. So if you have a second SD card I'd recommend installing v2.6.1 on that, boot up and create your emuNAND, then boot into SX OS with the emuNAND and update the emuNAND to firmware 7.0.1 and then copy your games etc. over.

Are you talking about „old” emunand that is part of nand or emunand based by sd card hidden partition?

Now that's sucks! DLC won't work anymore! Installs just fine but game tries to check whether they're useable or not. It goes for fresh installs on 2.6.1 with 7.0.1, while dlc packs installed on 6.2 with 2.5.3 stays workable.
Please, let garyopa and team TX aware of this issue.

Not quite sure what exactly you're doing, but DLC work just fine for me.

Just installs custom xci files from usb hdd. It used to do the trick before, when I installed f.e. Minecraft from custom xci on 2.5.3, but on fresh system with 7.0.1 and 2.6.1 it won't.

It works really fast.
Here is everything you need for the best N64 emulation:
It includes latest Retroarch 1.7.6, NSP forwarder to use full ram, Latest mupen64plus-next with Gliden64 3.0 support and special configs for this core.
You need latest Atmosphere 0.8.5 or latest SX OS 2.6.1 because they have JIT patches.
Extract zip, copy files to MicroSd, install NSP file and launch from home screen not from homebrew launcher.

thx a lot.
I have currently Retroarch 1.7.5 installed.
Can ill just copy/replace your installation on top to not loose any dbs?

Thank you
