why not just update to the latest? Atmosphere and SXOS supports 10.X.XDoes it work or you need to update 10+? Also, is there a tracker for minimum software required to run each game out there?
It's just best to stay up with the firmwares. 99% of the time that will be your problem is that you're on an older firmware. With ChuidujourNX it isn't too difficult to update.
I agree and disagree all my games work on 9.1.0 sometimes when you update firmware certain apps wont run well when you update. Theres always risks when you are upgrading unofficially through ChuidujourNX. There will be a time when you need to update but update only needed to not to play cat and mouse.
Haven't run into any problem on 10.0.2, according to what people had said CFW work fine on 10.0.3, it is up to the people if they want to update or not, beside 10.0.x has no new key as oppose to 9.1.0
All firmwares that worked on 9.0+ work on 10.0+ though. It was different when you updated from 8.0 to 9.0 because controls were broken and you had to update all apps.
Even if they stop working you can almost always update them to the newer apps and you're fine.
Some people only use their sysnand and I hear some horror stories go wrong when they update and a certain file is missing from the firmware package. Even if I do update in the near future I'll keep my sysnand where it is and only update the emmunand I guess that's risk free if something goes wrong but idk.
I guess it's just me I'm so used to my PS Vita and PS3 being on old firmware I rarely update my system. I'm crossing my fingers that Borderlands and Bioshock works on my firmware and I'm kinda done with switch games for a very long time I don't see another game that I'll be interested in to upgrade.

i’m one of them. I only have a nandbackup bavk from 6.2
That's why you make a Nand backup anyone doing this should be doing that at least once every few months, ideally every time before you update.

Not this.
If you followed this advice while on SXOS you're probably getting a ton of crashes in games that worked perfectly fine before, and for no good reason since most don't even require 10.x. Updates should be put off as long as possible until absolutely necessary, unless you're ready to deal with potential bugs or downgrading
Completely false, I am on latest SXOS latest firmware and there's no crashes. You're going to have to update one day or another I am not saying to update day one when it's out but if you do it within a month that's the best way. If you want to stay on older firmwares and ask why your games aren't working be my guest, but you can't stay on 8.1 forever or 9.1 or whatever, you've eventually going to have to update or miss out.
And anyone who tries to downgrade usually ends up making a thread saying "my Switch won't turn on after I downgraded"
