try holdingpower button for 30 sec so that the switch completely shuts down
then try to push payload again
If that doesnt work then it could be a corruption in the card so you can try to format the card and then use a fresh set of cfw files ( best to try this with a spare card if you have one)

If possible do you have another microsd card you can test with? Max 16gb or such? I just wanna test so you can enter RCM.

Weird that a retroarch crash would suddenly not make your system unable to boot back to cfw unless it's a sd card corruption. I hope this isn't a hardware issue like your sd reader failing.

Did you hold Power button for over 12seconds like Budsixz said?

try holding power button for 30 sec so that the switch completely shuts down
then try to push payload again

Try using a different sdcard, install the Kosmos package and try booting RCM.
