Hello guys, this is my first post here! I just got a MIG Switch card out of curiosity and I was tinkering with it. For those who don't know, it's used by placing XCI dumps as well as other game specific bin files in the sd card of the MIG Switch, and are obtained from the original cartridge by using an app like nxdumptool. Two of these bin files are mandatory to get the game to boot: Initial Data.bin and Certificate.bin. They stay the same for every cartridge of a specific game. Now, if you want to use an XCI dump from a shady website it's impossible to get it to work without those files. By using the Certificate.bin from another game it has no problem, but this does not count for the Initial Data.bin. So I looked for a way to obtain this Initial Data from an XCI file and read a bit of the XCI file documentation from switchbrew dot org. Here's what I understood so far: The Switch checks if the cartridge is valid by doing a challenge–response authentication on the Initial Data. The Package ID is contained both on the XCI and the Initial Data, on positions 0x110 and 0x0 respectively. The Initial Data hash is on the XCI at position 0x160. It is calculated by doing a SHA-256 hash on the full Initial Data content. So I was wondering, is there a way to to construct a functional Initial Data file starting from an XCI dump? I also tried a reverse approach by editing the Package ID in the Initial Data from another game, generating the Initial Data hash and putting it in the XCI file but is not enough to get the Switch believe it's a real game. Sorry if this may seem stupid but let me know what you think.

So I know Team Xecuter has a list of authorized sellers for their SX Pro and normally I would 3ds-Cards as I've used them before for R4i Cards but they've been quite iffy lately with their Paypal Payment and when I tried to purchase with a card I got an email asking if I can send them a picture of my card to verify if it's real. So I'm wondering what sites you've ordered from thats trusted that has Paypal and/or you trust enough that you would put your card information to pay with

Ordered from sammy.asia and online-trends. Getting the Pro from sammy.asia tomorrow and online-trends on thursday most likely. They are both trustworthy, however sammy.asia is more expensive but has current stock available. Used paypal for sammy.asia (visa card blocked the purchase) and card for online-trends.

They both ship from within the EU tho, so shipping would take a while for you.

E: They no longer have any stock.
