.NSP is an eShop game while .XCI is a cartridge game. You can't play a .NSP without installing it but it takes up less room than a .XCI. Also, not all games come in either format. Lastly, .NSP games only run in CFW but can be updated in OFW (carries a ban risk).
If you're installing them onto your SD card, then they will not launch unless you use the same SD card they were installed onto. Alternatively, you can install into the system memory but that space is limited.
What is your serial number? It sounds like your unit is patched. Did you follow this tutorial and see if your console is patched: https://gbatemp.net/threads/a-defin...atched-or-not-purchases-after-07-2018.512018/

Thank you,
Since both my switches are RCM compatible, do I lose anything by updating my old one to the latest FW? I don't want to take any chances on my new switch. I think the best bet will be to transfer the account over? Using nintendo official transfer tool. I believe it transfer saves as well.
The old will be used for modding.
Thanks SM

No but if you want to update, I recommend updating without burning fuses so you can return to your original firmware at any time: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...nofficially-without-burning-any-fuses.507461/ Bear in mind you will be stuck in AutoRCM but AutoRCM is manageable with Hekate (with SX OS, its a bit of a different story).
Question on this. Is ReiNX still useful without sigpatches if you know what I mean.
I am installing them into the same SD I just eject it put more nsp then insert it again and get this error only on the older games not on the recent installed.
No way its patched, was bought in Spring 2017. Try now biskeydump.
=> Biskeydump runs, and after the line "opened path" with ID etc. there is nothing happening anymore. Just stands still.
Do i have to REMOVE the jig at some point? Or am i missing something ....
EDIT: in Device Manager there is "Nintendo Switch APX mode".

ReiNX is very useful with sigpatches, if you know where to look and who to ask
I can think of 2 scenarios:
- The first set of games may be bad .NSP dumps that do not launch properly.
- The SD card is fake because its actually smaller than it really is meaning it deletes the installed .NSP data from the first set of games to make room for the recently installed ones. This must be diagnosed with a tool like h2testw. Or you can try reinstalling the older games and seeing if they as well as the recently installed launch. If its fake, only the ones that were the last ones to be installed will launch.
First, try using TegraRCMSmash as I suspect you are using TegraRCMGUI. The only difference is that you will instead drag the .bin file onto TegraRCMSmash.exe once your Switch is detected as an APX device by your computer. Secondly, what OS are you running? Thirdly, I would follow the driver setup from here one more time.
Deleting the actual game will only delete the game as the DLC and update data are either stored on the console or SD card (whichever you chose before installing them). They must be deleted separately.

I mean do we have to keep the game nsp on the sdcard once they are installed or can I delete them off the sdcard and still play the game?
Oh yeah, you can remove any .NSP on your SD card once they are installed regardless if they're a game, update, or DLC.

Windows 7 64bit
Tried Driver install again. In device manager, nothing changed, cause before there was already libusb etc. and there the "Nintendo Switch APX". exactly how it should be am i right?
Tegrasmash without gui i already tried before my post. tried again right now, no change (uploading payload.... mezzo size etc.). Then nothing happens anymore.
Where is my mistake ??
Is USB 3 mandatory?
Has there certain files to be on an inserted SD while smashing?

You did not indicate what OS you are running. USB 2.0 and above work with TegraRCMSmash. And no files need to be on the SD card for a payload to be sent properly.
For homebrew? Not really. For .XCI and .NSP? It seems pretty damn useful for those. I'll leave a link in case you want it without updating.

I deleted an installed game and tried to reinstall and got error message "install failed"
Thanks. I saw a thread recently that I can't seem to find now, but I thought I saw that 4.1.0 and the current FW have the same # of burned fuses? Is that correct?
I have 2 sc cards, one 16gb the other 128gb (128 is formatted exfat). The 16gb boots into homebrew but the 128gb doesn't. This isn't related to exfat support?

@Xdqwerty, Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! is the Japanese version of the game, different settings/characters/songs but otherwise identical mechanics. I played that before I knew about Elite Beat Agents lol. Both fantastic games https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!_Tatakae!_Ouendan+1 -
