I wonder, do all games need to be cxi to work? Sounds like it. What do we do with the old istorage releases then? Do they need cxi proper?
The correct format is .XCI (Switch Cart Image) or .NSP for eShop games (Nintendo Submission Package), and yes, all files must be in this format.I wonder, do all games need to be cxi to work? Sounds like it. What do we do with the old istorage releases then? Do they need cxi proper?
In the FAQ it says that the only format currently supported is .xci. So yes, delete the original releases and get the propers instead.I wonder, do all games need to be cxi to work? Sounds like it. What do we do with the old istorage releases then? Do they need cxi proper?
There will be some homebrew app or payload sure enough to dump your own carts.At this moment the biggest question for me is if this comes with a way to dumb the legitimate game carts you already own. I mean...thats what this device is "officially" meant for and im seriously planning to backup my carts, so it would be a shame if thats not possible.
edit:/ is there any info on this somewhere? Looked for it but didnt find anything.

source, please!Atmosphere reimplment Trusted Zone so I think we might not see any Backuploading soon there, since he block it.
pretty sure its a minimum card requirement of 32, but it wont even be hosted on the sd card. just like all the other payloads, its sent from pc (and/or *from the dongle) to the switch.Anyone know how much space the OS will take up on an SD card? I remember reading Atmosphere requires at least 32gb

I know what you think tethering means, but if you look up the word you'll realize your using it wrongly in this situation.
In this context "tethered to" simply means "dependant upon" whether that be a PC, phone or dongle. The dongle is clearly the most convenient out of those. However, anyone who wants total convenience should probably wait to see what the soldered modchip is going to be like.Tethering, by definition involves a rope or a cable in the middle of two devices. Sure, you can use a cellphone and that is pretty portable, but that requires the JIG and messing around with apps to get the Switch booted correctly. I rather just plug something in and go. Much more easier and convenient. I don't understand why people are complaining about the use of a Dongle when the use of another device is much more involved and takes more time. Either way you have to have a device plugged into your Switch.
It's funny that they have Nintendo Labo on there considering you can't do anything without the cardboard. Buying all that cardboard from Nintendo cost almost as much as buying the entire kit!
your narrow mind failed to think of the possibility of someone might want to back up games they already own

If that's the case, why is this nothing but a big list of BigBlueBox game dumps? If you were backing up your own games, you wouldn't need a LIST of games, you'd have the game already
