Hey, I would like to know if there is any simple way of playing legally owned games (cartridges and downloaded games) when atmosphere is loaded without having to copy some data to the sd card - like updates and such? The problem from what I understand is that the game refuses to load without updates, but without a proper connection it's not possible.
Technically I can just boot up into OFW, but I don't really like that option.

Apart from that, is there any way to sync the save file data onto the "real" eMMC?
 
As far as I know, the answer is no.
When the emummc (CFW) is loaded, the original emmc/nand memory (OFW) is not accessible.
So far nobody has made some homebrew app that can easily transfer stuff back an forth between the emummc and the original emmc.
The only way is to dump the emmc, extract the savefiles and put them on your emummc.
Moving save files is like copying normal files.
With games it gets even more complex because you need to create an installer for each game to install it on the emummc.

That's kinda weird. Why? That's the point of having emuMMC. To play your legit games on sysMMC and backups on emuMMC. That's how it works. lol
Fair enough, I just dislike having to switch between CFW and OFW in order to play backed up games/legit games. I was wondering if it was possible, better than copying over save files/update info. Oh well! :>

Thank you for the reply, it shines a lot of light into it! Sucks that it is this way, but it's manageable :)
