Best method to install without removing SD card

[AlfretXX]

There are milions of outdated articles online. Which is actually the best method? I want to use USB cable.

NUT and Tinfoil:

NUT does work, switch is shown as connected. But in Goldleaf the usb option just "hangs".
The installed Tinfoil using the NSP file, but it only shows black screen.

Please help.

Generally agree with @Shadow#1 you’re going to have to download at some point….may as well download directly from the switch and cut out the middle man, but if you’re heart set on USB, DBI has a decent following.

I just finished completing my library of EVERY game in the catalog. Was concerned about no Internet, shops down, etc. etc.

After all the effort, Boy am I disappointed with about 75% of it!

If I had to do it all again I would probably download, play for a bit, and if I like it back it up to disk…otherwise delete and move on to next.
