I have about 150 hours on Breath of the Wild on Switch 1. I have physical (retail) cartridge for the game. The problem is that I am using atmosphere on that switch 1 so I cant go online to do the transfer via nintendo. And I am using emulated nand, irrational part of me doesnt want to update the non emulated partition since its on launch firmware 1.0.

Is there any way for me to get this save over to Swtich 2 so that I can buy and play the Switch 2 upgrade for the game and play with my save?
 
You can try to inject the save on an nintendo account on your sysnand but there might be a chance they banned you.

Yeah I dont want to mess with sysnand at all. Because Id have to update it to latest to log in to Nintendo and its still on launch firmware. So I dont want to update it.

Is this the only way? Im ok with restarting the game from scratch (its a great game), but if there is a way to get the save over that would be awesome. Maybe some weird trick with swtich to swtich transfer.

No that is the only way, get the save onto a switch 1 with your nintendo account then transfer the save/transfer the profile.

If you don't mind your Switch getting banned you could just subscribe to Nintendo Online for a month, connect your Switch running on emuNAND online and sync your save files. Nintendo will ban your Switch 1 console, not your Nintendo account, and a ban could take anywhere from a few minutes to a few months. You'll probably get enough time to sync your save files before getting banned.

This is just a suggestion and I don't know whether or not it will actually work. It's up to you whether you're willing to take the risk or not.

What’s the reason that you want your sysnand stay on launch fw?

You don’t get banned for injecting a save (as long as it’s not modded stuff in an online game).

I did it this with some games. Used a different SD card with vanilla Atmosphere and just JKSV (save manager) to be extra save.
