Hacking game updates without updating firmware

[C0sm1c]

Long story short i accidentally upgraded to 7.0 which we know it breaks custom firmware. I was lucky enough that i did a NAND backup when i first installed custom firmware on my switch. So now i reverted back to 6.2 i lost my game updates like for Smash Bros. Question is any way to update my game without being forced to upgrade my firmware again?

nsp install or updated xci or update it and then downgrade it with nand backup (last: do it at your on risk)

I answered that. Find the nsp and install it. An nsp can be a game as well as an update Just find the update nsp

Get t he switch backup manager (That's what it called) it will tell you what version OS you need for said xci/nsp
Or just install the game. Forget about updates and if it asks for one find dev menu app and reset the required version needed so no update is required
