Is there a way to convert a 3DS or Wii Xenoblade save file to work with the Definitive Edition on Switch (or a Switch emulator)?

We have some of the tools needed to do this, but it's going to be easier to find an existing save with comparable progress than to hex-edit the save file yourself.

https://gbatemp.net/threads/will-so...nicles-definitive-edition-save-editor.566898/ suggests nobody has made a complete program to transfer things across.
https://gbatemp.net/threads/xcde-save-editor.622675/ links to https://gitlab.com/damysteryman/XCDESave, which has info about where some values are stored in the DE save.
https://github.com/enderslash1010/xc1-save-editor can edit Wii saves, so should be useful for identifying the values from your original save for you to insert into the DE save.
https://gbatemp.net/threads/xenoblade-chronicles-de-save-editing.605145/ shows evidence of someone successfully editing weapons.

Let us know how you get on.
