nxconvert – Convert XCI/NSP to DXCI/DNSP (for nxemu)

klgplyyiohksiowt · Mar 23, 2026

Hey everyone,

I’ve vibe coded a tool that converts Nintendo Switch XCI and NSP files into fully decrypted DXCI/DNCA format so that they can be used on nxemu

usage:
---------
nxconvert <input_file> <output_dir> <keys.txt>

Example:
nxconvert game.xci output/ prod.keys

Source code

Binary:

You can tell it was. Here:

C++:

// Namespace alias for filesystem
namespace fs = std::filesystem;

AI (correctly) assumes the people using it to vibe code don't have a clue. No real C++ dev would comment something like that because it's common sense?

outside of the AI styling, no one else has made a tool i can find that does this, so it is still fairly novel

What's this!?

What do you mean the Github Account "klgplyyiohksiowt" has submitted a sketchy file!?

What has this world devolved into?!

Is there no decency amongst friends?!

I'm flabbergasted.

xD

Kekekeke!

Stay safe kids :

Also, for the love of God, can someone have a real go at this? Thanks :

Dude lol, c'mon.
You visit r/PiratedGames way too much.
You and other Redditors there psych yourself about muh viruses.

What you have in your screenshot is two no-name antiviruses giving you generic detections.
"susgen"? Hmm, suspicious in a somewhat general way?
"Malicious"? Hmm, very specific.
These nothing "detections" by AI slop "antiviruses" happen cause the executable is unsigned or because the "antivirus" simply hasn't seen it yet.

You have the source available on OP's Github, you can inspect it yourself.

Trust me, I am the last person ever to defend AI slop.
But your own post is too self-satisfied.
