Did you only restored your emummc backup into sysnand and thats it? For testing purposes I want to do the same (I have my original unmodded sysnand backup if I want to revert back). If you could share how did you do it'll be great.
You should just need to rename the backup files to say sys instead of emu.

Even though it's been answered, yes it can be done. I would backup the eMMC using emutool and convert it to hekate backup format then restore it using hekate.

Read what? It makes no sense.
Why it makes no sense? If his switch is already banned or his switch is not connected to internet or protected with incognito+90DNS (yeah... I know Nintendo can have the means/power to ban any suspicious console), or simply he doesnt care at all if his console could be banned, I dont see a nonsense action to restore a emunand to sysnand. Plus, with nand backups there is always a way to restore it to a clean state.

Why risking a ban? The op didn't say that he is banned. And why such a nonsense with restore the emuMMC to sysMMC? You can just restore the emuMMC backup to the emuMMC partition? Why messing up with the nands?

Hacking/messing with a switch implies different risks, thats something almost everyone know when hacking their consoles. Maybe he needs more storage; why not restoring a emunand backup to sysnand to free space on sdcard with the emummc partition? The tools are there for such things. Only OP knows his own intentions. Making fun of it or disagree with him cant help at all. Anyways, good it can be done!

    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default

    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
