I'm trying to back up my Nintendo Switch Online save files to use them on real hardware and emulators. I used Checkpoint to extract the saves, the files are in .sram format, which can be easily converted using an online converter.
The thing is that the saves are organized in separate subfolders, each labeled with an ID instead of the actual game name (as I expected), and just named "cartridge.sram". But it's not the usual ID that there's in the cartridge label or any other databse, which makes it difficult to me to tell which save belongs to which game, since I haven't found a list of these IDs for NSO.
The only way I've been able to identify some games is if there's a save state, which also includes a screenshot. And since I haven't been subscribed to the online since 2023, I can't do that anymore.
This is the Game Boy NSO directory. From what I understand:
If anyone have a database of the IDs of these game titles, I’d appreciate the help!

This is the Game Boy NSO directory. From what I understand:
- "D-" for Game Boy (DMG),
- "C-" for GBC.
- "N-" for N64,
- "A-" for GBA.
- "S-" for SNES.
- "M-" for Sega.
- NES seems to be organized in the same way as the NES Classic.
