    Hi all, I had a quick question about dumping my keys. I have a switch that I only turn on when I want to dump an update/new game. I wanted to dump the last update to mario kart 8. Previously, the firmware was version 16.0.3, and to download the update, I needed to get version 17.0.0, so I went...

    Hacking Can you bypass the "Checking if the software can be played" message while offline?

    Perhaps someone can weigh in if I'm wrong, but I dont believe you can do that. The Switch that is the primary console has the title keys, and the secondary does not, thats why it's needs to check online to see if the title can be played. Maybe theres a way around it, but as far as I understand...

    Nintendo reportedly issues DMCA takedown for Switch homebrew projects, Skyline Switch emulator development ceased

    Can someone weigh in on a question about Lockpick for me? If that disappeared, is there any alternative? Would someone else pick up where they left off and call it something else? I don't claim to be familiar with the hacking scene, but I do know that I generally need to get the latest version...

    Hacking Mario Kart 8 Deluxe wave 2 problem.

    I'm not sure exactly how related it is, but I just dumped the new update and installed it on yuzu. When I tried to start mk8, I stopped having access to the dlc courses and had error code 2162-0101 display on yuzu. I assumed that the 118kb dlc file would be valid for each update, so I didnt...

    I just have a brief question. The other day I posted that I was unable to install on yuzu the update file I dumped for Mario Strikers. Even though I redumped my prod.keys, it didnt work until I dumped my keys with the latest version of lockpickRCM. Before I figured out the issue however, I was...

    Ok, so I was having an issue with the Mario Strikers update not installing on yuzu, and I wanted to post the solution here for any that may have trouble in the future. (This also solved my issue with Mario Kart staying at the opening screen with the flag waving, before he says "Mario Kart...

    Hello all, I had a few small issues that I wanted to ask about, hopefully its nothing complicated, and sorry if this turns into a super long post. So I have a two little issues, but I’m not sure if they are related. A few days ago I set up ryujinx, mostly because I saw that The Stretchers would...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Quick question, I've been using yuzu for a while now, but just set up ryujinx, since I've seen some titles preform better/differently on it. I wanted to ask, would there be any conflicts if both emulators use the same rom folder? It does sound like a dumb question as a type it out, but just...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Ok, so I figured it out. Holding power seemed to just flash the atmosphere logo. I removed the sd card, put the updated files on it, and put it back in. At first it seemed to not do anything, but holding power eventually did allow me to power off and boot into ofw, so I just restarted the...

    Hello all, I'm back with more Switch questions, but I dont think anything too bad this time. I recently got THPS for switch, the wife wanted to play it on switch, and I wanted to dump the .xci so I can play it on steam deck, since I cant get the EGS version to boot to the main menu. Anyways, I...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Hello all. I had a question about the DLC for Animal Crossing New Horizons. A few weeks ago I got a hacked switch and was dumping my games, updates, and dlc’s. I logged in to my v1 switch and set it to my primary so I can download my digital purchases and dump my title keys. I’ve been playing...

    Hacking SWITCH NOOB PARADISE - Ask questions here

    Just a little update, I've posted here a bunch recently. I was having an issue not being able to dump my digital purchases, because as @Draxzelex pointed out, the v1 switch that I had was set to secondary, so it lacked the title keys. So I ended up restoring the nand to go online, making the...

    So this is what I'm currently doing since I couldn't dump my digital games from my v1 switch since it was the secondary on the account. I'm not sure if it was necessary, but since I'm going online again, I restored the nand from the backup I made when I first started this. I put in a new micro...

    I found this in searching about the problem: https://github.com/DarkMatterCore/nxdumptool/issues/48 I really would like to go the legal route, even though it doesnt seem as practical. As for safely going online, am I running a huge risk? I made a backup of my nand, is this something I need to...
