Gaming My first Switch (couple Questions)

[Juicex3]

I brought a old Switch with the SerialNumb: XAJ7000111xxxx
Firmware Version: 11.0.1
It seems it is unpatched and i can install CFW on it.

I tested if the Switch is banned but i can access into e shop.
So it is not banned.

My question is:

It is OK to have legit e shop games or savegames/dlcs on a SD Card that have CFW on it?
When its not, so i need 2 SD Cards?

Because i dont wanna get banned.

That would be safe (if you're using emunand) but obviously we never know and Nintendo *may* ban you one day but that's the safest bet you have .. emunand that's not connected to the internet and sysnand for legit games

That all depends on what you want to do with it. If you want to pirate games, for example, you should make an offline emuMMC (with Incognito installed) and do all your piracy there. You don't need a separate SD card.

if its permanently offline there's no need for incognito on emunand .. even then 90dns (self hosted) would be better as incognito wipes your prodinfo

There have been cases of people saying they were going to keep the emuMMC offline but it accidentally being connected to the internet, so 90DNS or Incognito are recommended on any dirty eMMC.

True.. but it's also their fault for not using airplane mode

Not only just Airplane mode, but just don't link a wifi at all to be safe. But that's basically self banning yourself anyways.

Yes, but then that also means you can't use the internet for things like Tinfoil shops, etc. Something like Incognito is still recommended on a dirty sysMMC or emuMMC that you absolutely don't want going online.

I have 90dns on my dirty emunand and I got my sysnand clean for the 2 cart games I own and warframe which is f2p.. no problems so far (same SD card)

I meant Incognito or 90DNS. I just prefer Incognito.
