We have total control over Switches so with that in place it is the same as any other system. Some of the earlier hacks will transparently replace files but I would not suggest that for this and instead just do plain old file replacement and a custom ROM.
So the main two formats for Switch games are NSP and XCI, though the latter is mainly the domain of the SXOS crowd right now and the free custom firmwares are a bit touchy about including it for reasons only care to contemplate (they say piracy but eh).
I have some documentation aimed at the GBA and DS

Afraid I don't have any nice intros in Hungarian right now. You might find some out there. I tapped in magyar ROM moddolásához, hackeléséhez and ROM hackeit into a search and got a few results but don't speak Hungarian anywhere near well enough to comment on the quality of the contents. There are also a few translations for older systems ( http://www.romhacking.net/?page=tra...=50&order=&dir=&title=&author=&transsearch=Go lists several) so you might be able to find more from the authors there.
The Hungarian alphabet is quite a bit larger than the standard Roman alphabet. This means you might run into trouble there compared to some other European languages which only have two or three more characters than those used in English. It is not the worst thing in the world but I have not checked what goes for Switch fonts at this point, and I don't know if anybody has.
For unpacking Switch games in general I think we are still suggesting hactool ( https://github.com/SciresM/hactool ). There might be others people like more out there now though. The Switch does not have great emulators right now but emulators are more nice than essential here.

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files
) -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying+1 -
