Create a Switch folder on the root of the sd card, and place this inside it.

You can then use the Switchbru appstore to download any apps you need. It is updated regularly to include the newest apps, as well as updates to existing ones.

does this homebrew stuff work on the newest firmware ?

Homebrew Launcher for Switch!
Place hbmenu.nro on the root of your SD card, and set your Nintendo Switch DNS to 104.236.106.125 (3.0.0 consoles only).

Homebrew works on all FW, it has for several months now....

Aren't you suppost to stay offline when you use sx, so you cannot download anything?

So the sdfiles in the link and the app store. Both are there to download
https://github.com/tumGER/SDFilesSwitch/releases
https://github.com/vgmoose/appstorenx/releases

So in summary
all you need for the SX pro is the hbmenu.nro on the root of your SD card and a folder called 'switch' in the folder a folder called 'appstore' in that folder you need appstore.nro(If you download the tumGER sd files, just put all the files inside the SDfiles folder to the root of your SD card.

Then load the CFW with the Xecuter pro.
Hold the right bumper and click album.
The appstore should be in there.
Click the appstore and click emulators and download whichever emulators you want

If you download just the SD files, just place ALL the files inside that folder to the root of your SD card and you're good to go. Wasn't on PC, so just checked and that link has everything you need so ignore the second one.

It doesn't matter which files you use as they're just for the different payloads, you will just be using xecuters CFW instead.

I'd just look through the emulators, I'm not sure what them games fall under, I have just been doing this so I can help you(and I'm bored), I don't use emulators on my switch.

PS I'm jealous you from Oz and have your pro already. Mine better come today :'(

Either, both have the same files you need

Great Thanks. So i am assuming i just extract and put all files on the sd card is that correct?

 

[Soluble]

I've sent you a PM with the only files you need from the SDfiles. Put them on the root of your SD card, load up SX Pro, hold Right bumper, tap album and you're done.

After you`ve put the Files to your SD Root that Soluble sent you, you can add this to your SD Card. Its an Emulator Set:

Salamander Core Bundles (until CI Integration is done):

SET YOUR CORE DIRECOTRY IN THE SETTINGS TO /retroarch/cores/switch

The first link shows the thread from the emulators.
