Use the homebrew application ChoiDujourNX.
So I'm not big on piracy anymore. However, the ability to backup my carts would be cool so I don't have to fish around for them again. Is this currently possible without buying Xecuter's crap?
Dumping them doesn't require SX OS. Use either gcdumptool or WAIN cart dumper. Playing them is another story. For non-SX OS CFW, you have to install the .XCI files. You can do that with ZeroTwoXCI, dOPUS, or n1dus. They require a keys file which you can obtain with another homebrew application known as lockpick. Alternatively, you can convert the .XCI files into .NSP format with 4NXCI or xci2nsp which also require a keys file.
Staying on 5.1 for a while, have had a lot of success with NSPs or converted XCIs installed to SD card. But a handful of games (Doom and Wolfenstein) I can't seem to get to work. They hard crash the switch and corrupt the install to the point of it needing removed.
I am running latest Atmosphere and Hekate, no special patches or configs. Am I missing a critical step to get some of these games working? Would really appreciate if someone could set me straight. Really trying to avoid SXOS.

I installed my NSPs using tinfoil, with the "ignore firmware" option. I'd like to update them now, as well as install DLC, and I have a few questions:
1) Is it preferable to install the game with "ignore firmware", or does it not matter? I'm asking mainly for compatibility issues later on when I try to install updates, dlc, etc.
2) How do I go about installing the updates (in NSP file format)? Same way I install games on tinfoil? Can I skip an update, or do I need to install EVERY update file, sequentially?
3) Do I need to install updates before the DLC? If so, what happens if you don't?
Thanks.

I actually had no idea that running patches was necessary to use converted NSPs and stuff so it's a miracle I got anything to work. Thanks. Grabbing and installing! I'll try Reinx as well but considering most stuff WAS working, I had a feeling it was just silly user error on my side.
- There is no harm in ignoring the firmware but it won't ignore all firmware requirements
- The latest update contains all of the previous updates
- Order doesn't matter but in case you exit Tinfoil before installing all of them or something else goes wrong, you could install updates before DLC
Is there any reason not to install .nsp games to the nand if the system will never be connected to a network even once? Seems wasteful to not use that 25.6 GB free on it once my SD card starts getting low on space.
No not really especially since games run slightly faster when installed to NAND.
You either make a Launch Configuration that points to the specific payload and corresponding patches/kips or you place the payload in the /bootloader/payloads folder. For the lazy, there is a pre-compiled version of Hekate that launches Atmosphere by default known as Kosmos. For ReiNX, just download ReiNX and place the payload in the /bootloader/payloads folder.
I have Brand new unpatched virgin Switch and SX OS PRO dongle.
All guides are made before 6.2.0 was released.
Can someone please help me and point me to step by step procedure...
Im Im running sx os and can't send the payload using my Android.
Im phone support OTG(xiaomo a2 lite).
I tried sx tools, nx loader, rcm loader.
No success at all.
I checked my cable and it works fine.
What to fo?

Hey guys - completely new to this switch modding business so I just wanted to confirm a particular thing before I get started:
I currently own 2 switches and smart me have used a legit (purchased games) account on both of them at some point in time.
My question is if I unlink one of them and link another dummy account and begin modding on it would the original account be banned as it was previously linked to the switch?

Thanks for fast reply Cyndor - So i presume once the console gets banned you can't un/link an account tied to the console and hence can't access the stuff you purchased for (from eshop)
Question about FTP -> I am using SX OS and used Checkpoint to back-up a save, but when I tried to use Filezilla and navigated to the checkpoint directory it was empty, even tho I had just made a backup?

@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 -
