wait what do you mean? There is a romset of it online and you can just pull the simpson arcade game right from it. Or are you talking about something else. What does a torrent do
Just had a look at that and will do it, at the very bottom it has to be a typo right? It says if you plan to use atmosphere on sysnand for online play!
It also talks about setting up DNS for sysnand but for a clean sysnand used only for stock firmware, you leave the DNS alone Dont you?
Good eye! Atmosphere alone, without installing piracy (no NSPs or XCIs), even with non-cheating homebrew, does NOT trigger the ban hammer. There are many prominent people in the scene that go Online with Atmosphere daily without any negative impact. Atmosphere is not piracy. That’s what Atmosphere was designed for. So yeah…not a typo.
Now back to our regular, but simple mantra here on Noobs (because it’s less confusing…)
- Do all your dirty stuff on Emunand
- 100% clean Sysnand for Online
I rarely sin, but when I do, I make it count and do it x 100!
There’s a tor online with everything in a bundle.
Grabbing the entire pack…for science.
Is that a large (>4G) dump? Is so (and if you are on FAT32 like you are supposed to be) it would have been split into .00, .01, .02, etc. if that’s the case you will need to go in and set the archive bit on the containing folder using Windows.

Greetings all, so I was away from my switch for almost 2 years now, I was using sxos and never used atmosphere, so now I'm thinking to delete everything and start over with atmosphere.
So can anyone direct me to a good tutorial on what I need to install? What's a must have homebrews available now? I heard tinfoil not working anymore, any alternative?
Thank you.

no need. You can migrate directly using this: https://rentry.org/SwitchHackingIsEasy
Specifically check out these chapters (in this order)

Click my sig to go to my blog…there are two pages. Second page is WIP of all the homebrew I use on my Switch.
Nothing wrong with Tinfoil. Many shops are down but some are open and tits is cheap.
Here are the installers I use:
Tinfoil — Love it or hate it this is @blawar ’s tinfoil installer…be sure to check out his companion app, nut.exe
Tinfoil Setup — @l7777 ’s rendition of a tinfoil/nut.exe setup.
DBI — The English instructions for @duckbill007 ’s simple but surprisingly powerful installer.
Tinwoo — @mrdude ‘s straightforward installer that does what it says on the tin every time.
Goldleaf — Try this solid installer by @XorTroll
You bet. Good luck!
1 fichier came through! Huge 35G file.
Nothing but good to report about Arcade machines (“MAME”) Emulator Switch NSP
everything just drops right in and I have over 4000 new things to check out now.
Let’s just say I’m going to have a nostalgia filled week!
I’m updating cores and assets to make sure I’m on latest and greatest and then I will attempt to play 3055 - Chrono Trigger (U) (XenoPhobia)
Update to come shortly…
Does this look right?
If so, it dropped right in with the rest of the pack. Using MAME 2003-Plus core btw.
Hello, We’ve got two modded consoles in my family and are wanting to play wirelessly together. A LAN network has been setup which blocks outside internet using the firewall to prevent any bans.
In the unlikely case that this fails, are there any Homebrew apps which block Nintendo Servers? I’d like an extra barrier of protection on these consoles. Also, does Atmosphere have any DNS blocks built into it?
Thanks!

Yes, latest Atmosphere has everything you need built in..

I’ll take a look in a bit but you might want to consider finding the all in one package I referenced. I didn’t have to reconfigure anything and I’m just playing things right out of the box. Literally download, unzip, done. 4000+ games.
e: here’s what I see…
so it’s /retroarch/roms/mame2k3plus/roms/simps2pa.zip
e2: something of note, the .nsp forwarder that comes with the pack is old. Don’t install it. Install the one from this thread instead https://gbatemp.net/threads/nsp-forwarder-tool-for-12.587936/ <-confirmed working on FW 14.1.1/Atmos 1.3.2

Hi...
I've been reading posts and posts about DNS stuff and blocking Nintendo servers etc... I'm no network expert not even close. In fact, I have real issues with networking, but I feel that people have been using terminologies quite wrongly and I get even more confused about it all.
DNS is not meant to block anything, as far as I understand. DNS is just a service running on OSes to resolve an internet human readable address like www.nintendo.com, into an IP address used in packets. Then, the way I know to block internet sites, is in a file called
So, I get confused (but still have been accepting it) that people say to use this or that DNS setup to avoid connecting to Nintendo servers.
For instance, in our home networks, we set our preferred DNSes just as an extra step to hide a bit more of information from our ISPs. Meaning that we are not using our ISP DNSs to resolve the addresses we want to visit out in the internet. I mean, we don't setup our preferred DNSs to block any sites!
So, if anyone can explain me this and tell me where am I wrong, I would appreciate!

I wrote a whole spiel but I think it can be answered more succinctly.
90DNS is doing friendly DNS Poisoning. Plain and simple.
They are claiming to be authoritative for *.nintendo.com and telling your Switch that it can believe them when they say the IP address for banhammer.nintendo.com is 127.0.0.1 (the ”home” ip adress of your network card). Other DNS servers would refer your Switch to the real authoritative servers and get you the real IP address and send you right to your doom. 90DNS works as long as your Switch is pointed to their “poisoned” servers.
When you set up a new network connection you are initially using the default DNS servers that do NOT lie to your Switch so that’s the danger…a properly configured DNS server that doesn’t lie.
DNS:mitm is similar except that it answers as the authority before the query is even made by referring to .txt files in /atmosphere/hosts/. This is why you can use Google DNS or your own ISP without fear because the queries never leave your box.
If for whatever reason the dns:mitm service glitches or your files are misconfigured it could result in your queries getting to your real DNS server and thus getting the real IP.

I think I understood most of it. Still, I think we are talking about redirecting/resolving host names to IP addresses and not blocking access to Nintendo servers, which is made inside
But I take the explanation to throw a couple other questions:
Who is claiming? 90DNS settings?
About the DNS stuff, I'm not sure what is happening.
Like, when we set some DNS in our laptop/router/whatever, we are saying to our network to use those IP addresses as our DNSs.
So, when we set Primary DNS to 1.1.1.1 and Secondary DNS to 1.0.0.1 (Cloudfare DNSs), we are forcing our network to use those IP addresses to resolve the hostname that our device is trying to reach, right?
Now, what I'm not sure I understand, when I try to establish a relationship between friendly DNS poisoning and blocking sites, is how our console is prevented from reaching Nintendo servers with settings like:

So, I don't understand what are these settings doing when a DNS server is only supposed to resolve address names and/or (legitimately or not) redirect our devices to different sites other than the legit ones (the poisoning thing).

Thanks binkinator this is useful for me too
Can I ask what is `exosphere.ini` used for, it's not clear to me..
Also can I check I should use `/atmosphere/hosts/default.txt` as although I am using emuMMC I am not going to be going online with my sysNAND?
Thanks!
