Can someone point me to an article or post on what's the actual tech difference between card 1 and card 2? Just for educational purposes.

Tutorial:

Get the latest version of XCI Explorer with Card 2 Support (https://github.com/StudentBlake/XCI-Explorer/releases)
Load the XCI file, then go to the Partitions tab, then under secure find the biggest NCA file and extract it to your desktop (See image 1 for reference) (should be called "cdee81d37ad6e99952d7f45fb01b2c83.nca" for Mario Tenis Aces)
Extract the NCA file to your desktop
Download hactool and extract the content to your desktop (https://github.com/SciresM/hactool/releases)
Download keys.ini and places it on your desktop
Create a folder on your Desktop called Mario
At this point, you should have 1 folder and 6 files on your desktop (NCA file, four files for hactool, and keys.ini) (See image 2 for reference)
Open CMD (Command Prompt)
Type in the following command:
cd Desktop (press enter)
hactool.exe -k keys.ini --romfs="Mario\romfs.bin" --exefsdir="Mario\exefs" "cdee81d37ad6e99952d7f45fb01b2c83.nca" (press enter) (if you are using a different game you would have a different name for you NCA file)
Now command prompt will run the command and if it is successful you should see "Done!" at the end (See image 3 for reference)
Now you have all the files required to run your game!
Rename the Mario folder to the title ID of your donor game and then modify main.npdm with your donor title ID
Copy the folder to the titles folder on your SD card (atmosphere/titles/)

Now you are all good to go! Hope this tutorial was hopeful for people decrypting Cart 2 games!

Does anyone have a methode to do the same but in XCI format ??

Do you know why this card type has been created ? do they have extra storage ? Is it an anti piracy layer added ?
i mean what makes this card type 2 differnt from card type 1 ??

Same here i want to know the differences, yet cannot see anything info on it. Is it like a dual layer 50gb + storage space rom chip, added security like you say.

I wish there was a way to repack your files in XCI format, that would solve a lot of headaches.

I +1 that.

Not that it matters, type2 will be playable soon, but I'd just like to know out of curiosity.

Games used to store their icon and name data in a partition labeled "normal" on the game cart. However, newer games now have an empty "normal" partition and have a new logo partition that stores the icon data. This dumper does not handle those newer games. So if you try to dump a really new game, like the Happy Birthdays game, the dumper will fail.

The important thing is that xecuter already realeased the update and we can use this card 2 games now , I’ve already tried with Mario tennis Aces and it works great !!

Does the update fix the 1-2 Switch problems?
