Hello everyone!

I am in need of some help.
Current Situation.
I own three Nintendo Switch Systems.

1. A hacked, but banned system i borrowed from a friend.
2. A normal unhacked system that can only be hacked with a modchip.
3. A Switch 2.

I wish to transfer a TOTK and BOTW Savegame onto my Switch 2, but unfortunately i need either some help or some questions answered.
The easiest method most likely would be to login with my Nintendo Account onto the the hacked but banned switch and just local transfer ist. I am really scared though that this somehow flags my account and gets my Switch 2 banned from online services, so this is something i want to avoid.

The next method would be to somehow get that save onto my clean Switch 1 and use the Cloud Service to sync the save. I have no idea how to do this though or if it is even possible.

The other idea i had would be to get the help of someone from this forum who is trustable who uses their system to upload a save file onto my account and then sync it.


If anyone else has an idea on how to achieve this, i'd be very grateful for your time !

I havent been active in Switch and 3DS modding in a long time, so maybe there are tools that came out i am unaware of.
 
Can't be done without a modded and not banned Switch. The process would be, get desired save to clean sysnand on modded Switch with your Nintendo account, then upload the save to cloud, retrieve save on Switch 2.

Thanks, but can't you give us more details please?

I have a unbanned switch 1 with emunand and sysnand, also have nintendo account on both emunand and clean sysnand, but HOW do I get the savegame to the sysnand?

I want to copy the savegame of my CFW to my OFW. I created a backup of the save game on CFW. And I started the game on the OFW and created a save game. But how can I now restore the CFW savegame to the OFW? I can't start JKSV on the OFW, because its OFW. Thanks! How exactly do I get the Savegame from the OFW to CFW? I tried the restore function on JKSV, but its not working.
 
The easiest way is to boot the sysnand with CFW. Then use JKSV to restore. There is a low risk of ban booting a clean sysnand with CFW but it is the easiest way to do what you want.

If you want to further reduce the ban risk you'll have to research mounting the emunand and sysnand in Hekate, using a Windows computer with nxnandmanager to extract the saves from the emunand and insert them into the sysnand. This can all be done without booting the sysnand with CFW and should accomplish the same thing, copying your saves from emunand to sysnand.

Once on sysnand you should be able to send them to cloud storage or do a system transfer to get them to the S2.
