Yes, they share the same amount of risk. You can also directly install .XCI files using ZeroTwoXCI or dOPUS.
Thanks alot!
Seems like I’ll be cfw’ing it tonight then!!
I’m glad but really surprised you have the possibilty to answer all questions as you do! But big thanks for your time & effort!! Really appriciate it!
this reply answered a lot of questions for me & which cfw do you personally recommend ?
by the way i googled xci to nsp & found (4nxci) which i used to convert xci to nsp

one more important question can you install USA region XCI/NSP on PAL Switch ? just like CIA with Luma on the 3DS ?
I tried searching but is there any database that lists all of Nintendo Switch games, including the latest version of the game? I am running SX OS and would like to know which game I have which are not updated, and will look for the update file if possible.
I think the best thing is to try different CFW, and depending your usage, you will find the one that suits your needs.
Personally, I like ReiNX .
You can install games from any region.
This site is updated weekly but is the one I recommend to everyone: https://www.perfectly-nintendo.com/nintendo-updates/
Hello, i need some advice. I wanted to upgrade to more recent firmware to play more games but i dont know how to do it step by step. Right now i have Switch with 4.1.0 and using SX OS PRO 2.0 . I read about ChoiDujourNX to upgrade without burning fuses, but guide look complicated with some problems with compatibility to SX OS.
Can you give me some advice what to do step by step?

sorry but i have one more,hopefully it's the last before i buy a Switch,is there a certain firmware i should look for or is CFW compatible with latest Switch OFW ?
Using ChoiDujourNX is not really complicated. All you do is obtain the copyrighted firmware files elsewhere from the Internet, place the choidujournx.nro in the /switch folder, launch the homebrew app, navigate to the folder containing the firmware files on your SD card, and once you see .NCA files, you press Choose in the bottom right. The rest of the prompts are self-explanatory.
Hey Draxzelex. I've got my 200gb SD card. Am gonna backup my nand.
Can you tell me what is meant by keys dump? Why do I need to this and whether I need to do this before I start CFW?
Also I'm playing botw currently with a physical cart. Can I continue my save game once I start with Reinx or is there some additional step?

I'm going to assume you are referring to Canna's tutorial. Keys are not needed before hacking but are useful for other things such as decrypting the NAND, unpacking games, and converting installable content. It doesn't matter when you dump these as these won't change (except for masterkeys which are firmware dependent).
As for Breath of the Wild, if you plan on using the retail cartridge to play the game, there are no additional steps to make it work with ReiNX.
Use shchmue's fork of the homebrew app Kezplez to dump the keys necessary to install .XCI files. Then use an .XCI installer such as dOPUS or ZeroTwoXCI
Don’t be sorry, it’s okay..

Alright, going from a Virgin nand without exfat support, to an updated hacked one would require:
Fat32 microsd
Launch payload
Backup nand
Update with choudigiourno? Do I need an exfat formatted SD in to get the option to install exfat update with choudigiourno?
Reformat SD to exfat copy all files over again
Get on with life?

Does anyone know how to reset demos?
I downloaded UNO demo, you can only do 3 matches and that's it. I deleted my save afterwards, booted it back up and still couldn't do anything. Not going to pay $10 for a card game.

I didn't mean cart as in cartridge. I meant card as in a card game, like playing cards.
thank you so much,so Switch hacking is more similar to PS3 hacking where only older PS3 consoles with certain firmware can be modified. i'm not sure if i should go for a New Switch or try to find older used console since there is no way for me to check a new console's serial number before buying it.
- No one is chatting at the moment.
